Minecraft

I’ve been playing this game, Minecraft, the past few days and I am obsessed with it (pictured above is the front door to the house I built). I had seen this game before but I never really bothered with it until I realized I could play it on the Mac (or in a browser). There are two modes: Classic, which is like freeform lego mode where you build whatever you want with infinite resources and Indev which is like a survival mode where you start with nothing, have to harvest materials, build tools, mine for metals and build cool shit. Here are my experiences with the Indev mode. You can click on the pics to see bigger versions.

Here is the house I built. The wood part was my original house, to keep me safe during the night when the monsters come out. Later I built a stone expansion just for the hell of it. Around the back is the entrance to my mine.

Inside my original house. It’s really crappy. I’m thinking of tearing it down and using the wood for tools. Anyway here you can see where the magic happens. I have my chest, my crafting table and my furnace.

Behind that is the entrance to the basement. As you descend the stairs you see a door, which leads into the tunnel system.

The start of the railroad. This tunnel took me hours to build, and I had to redirect it twice due to accidentally flooding it. You’ll eventually be able to hop into the mine cart while another powered mine cart pushes you through the tunnels.

Part of the way through the tunnels is my secret base. It’s not really that secret actually. I have a treasure chest, crafting table and furnace in here cause I was tired of running back to my house.

At this point the tunnel starts going up and above ground.

Above ground, the track from this point on will be encased in glass so monsters cant get in at night. The path goes over the frozen ocean.

The current end of the sky bridge. I’m building it to the next island after this, but I can only work on it during the day because at night the monsters come out to fuck my shit up.
