------------------------------------------
- You cannot place or break block until you disable the crystal of the castle after walking through the dungeon.
- Yellow, Blue and Red keys are required to lock corresponding doors in the dungeon. They are dropped by killing mobs in the castle (30%, 10%, 2% drop rates, configurable)
- Keys and excellent treasures can be found in the dungeon as well, you might need to solve puzzles or kill hard mobs to obtain them.
- The levitation stone gives you levitation effect when near the castle.
- The levitation crystal gives nearby players (within 100 blocks, configurable) effect to prevent them from placing and breaking blocks. The effect can be disabled in config file as well.
------------------------------------------
The castle was inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's animated film Laputa: Castle in the Sky.
Fun fact: The iron golem's holding out flowers to villagers is a reference to the ancient robots in the movie as well.
