CRATE IDEA
"If you box it, they will come. And they will open the box. And then you will have to box it again. Or not."
Steam Page​

This mod adds:

• 6 new types of "standard" pre-hardmode crates, found in any biome​
  • ...and their hardmode counterparts! These will shimmer into pre-hardmode versions like other crates.​
  • While these crates sometimes do not have ores in them, all of these crates can be crafted into vanilla crates at an altar.​
• One special crate that can be fished up after defeating the final boss​
• One Hardmode enemy.​
  Spoiler: Beware, for it wields crate power!

  
• The extra-special Crate Crate, which contains perhaps the cratest reward of all pre-hardmode crates​
  • ...and its hardmode counterpart, the Cratest Crate!​

Spoiler: List of all added Crates

SWORD CRATE: Contains a large variety of pre-hardmode swords.
In hardmode, replaced by the EXCALIBOX.

ARCHER CRATE: Contains pre-hardmode bows and arrows.
In hardmode, replaced by the SHERWOOD CRATE.

COOL CRATE: Contains enough ice to be a drink cooler (and potentially might have drinks!), as well as assorted cool things.
Sunglasses guaranteed.
In hardmode, replaced by THE COOLER COOL CRATE.

GARDEN CRATE: Contains plants, seeds, and gardening supplies.
In hardmode, replaced by BOTANICAL CRATE.

FISH CRATE: It may sound like fishing with extra steps, but there's a lot of potential fish in this thing!
In hardmode, replaced by BIG FISH CRATE.

CREATURE CRATE: Added in 0.2! This crate contains critters, as well as minions and gear useful for Summoners.
In hardmode, replaced by ULTRA CREATURE CRATE.

Crate Idea is still in development; expect to see more crates pop up over time, as I get more ideas for them! I'm also open to suggestions for more crates.
