@jebox.bsky.social if you could go back in time and implement 5 Minecraft features/mechanics differently with no risk of community backlash, which would you pick?

They should invent pants that have a fly all the way down and around to make squat toilets easier to use

Because changing yourself to fit the world is very different to letting the world teach you. How to listen, how to support, how to be principled, how to improvise, how to connect.

I just had a dream that mojang added a new trial chamber that had vents that shot out waves of smoke you had to jump over or be pushed away. Then there was another platform filled with rabbits which had an entire crafting system.

The Minecraft Survival Guide returns with a Tiny Takeover Q&A! While working on new pastures for farm animals, I had the opportunity to chat with Minecraft game director LadyAgnes about bringing this drop to life :) youtu.be/pX0sEj3PDjc

Went to Idaho on the weekend

Hey @jebox.bsky.social, how does the team decide whether to prefix a new undead mob with "Zombie" or "Zombified"?

Every time I read a novel, it reassures me that my attention span hasn't been destroyed by social media

Introducing the Dumper! A block placer with a twist. The blocks it places will fall like sand or gravel, even ones that wouldn't naturally do so. I was considering using it in the End Meteors to make falling blocks you have to jump across. But this idea actually came to me in a dream last year!

I made a brief mock-up of the End Meteors experience so far!There are: - Checkpoints you can activate - Forcefields that teleport you to a Checkpoint - Super-Slime which bounces you higher every time - Building Fatigue which limits you to placing one block per minute (I will remove particles later)

Finally found some time to keep working on my End Meteors mod! I got the HUD indicator working for Building Fatigue. This effect adds a 1 minute cooldown for placing blocks - it will be used in parkour puzzles to let the player cheat if they get stuck. Art: Voiden & Jasmiscus (video 10x tick rate)

asymptotically approaching my goals

Hi gamers, I'm streaming tonight with @camcamburger.bsky.social, come see us totally do great at that and there will definitely be no unforseen issues, it will go perfectly :3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUcx...

Minecraft’s enchanting system has always been a mix of grinding for XP, rerolling villager trading, and stacking enchantments to get "God Gear". Much of it is antithetical to Minecraft’s goals as a creative sandbox - so @astrazoey.bsky.social decided to overhaul it completely. youtu.be/ND4pAWq8sZY

it's the non, afraid of chalanting, that never learns to yearn

I made a Nether mod for Minecraft 1.21.10 hope y'all like it www.curseforge.com/mc-mods/scor... modrinth.com/mod/scorch

I've updated a bunch of Minecraft mods to 1.21.10, you can find them with Modrinth or CurseForge! modrinth.com/user/Astrazoey www.curseforge.com/members/zoey...

every year around this time i surprise myself with how much i can handle

sit with your sadness for now so you can have empathy later

"if I'm going to go through shit, I might as well get something out of it" has been my motto for the past few years

@jebox.bsky.social hello, do you know what the official percentage of players who have ever gone to the End dimension is? I don't know how representative the Xbox achievement statistics are

NEW VIDEO!!!!! It's about creativity and how to go about pursuing that when your executives don't feel like functioning. youtu.be/7mCdfBmQxG0

you get left on read. i, a 6'3" feminist, get left on heart reacted (it's totally different please believe me)

If I don't live up to my potential, I'll forgive myself.

Man it's so nice to hang out with a friend without a strict time limit on when you have to be somewhere else. I don't feel like I'm rushing to say everything that's on my mind and can just explore random topics

Imagine if when you died you could choose someone else you loved to die instead of you but if you died that way then you couldn't

immensely satisfying when you get to know someone you've been aware of for a while but never properly talked to. Like the background characters are finally getting fleshed out

@jebox.bsky.social hello, was the sponge drop from elder guardians meant to be a placeholder? a few famous people have been saying so but i couldn't find a source for it. keep up the good work, loved your cameo!

pieces of minecraft end overhaul, pt. 1 #pixelart #minecraft

"stop being nosy" i'm literally just taking an interest in people??? and their private lives???

LLMs have destroyed the development of a very important high school skill: waffling

Someone accidentally spilt juice on my shirt today so I rinsed a portion of it then went all over campus looking for a hot air hand dryer. But they'd all been replaced with towels - which are better for hands but not for me! Then I realised the real drying was the wind I ran through along the way...

I played this mod on stream the other day. It's fantastic - definitely one of my favourites so far.

Endless Journey is peak

They should make it so that you can lead other players with leads in Minecraft

New Video! It’s about movies, specifically ones related to minecraft: youtu.be/Y4BUyWIpP7c

unbothered. moisturized. happy. in my lane. focused. flourishing.

If the Ghast can find happiness in 15 years, so can you.

Working for a company, owned by another company (and a publicly-traded one at that), it’s always frustrating to hear players equate revenue, or purchase price a decade ago, with potential output. That money isn’t just ready in a bank. That’s not how budgets work. That’s not how any of this works.

Every so often you meet someone who's both a good texter and a good talker. They are the best

@jebox.bsky.social can you please tell me the reason that beetroots were added to Pocket Edition? It's been haunting me for years

finally did something I've been putting off for ages and suddenly it's like a mental pipe has been unclogged. Hell yeah

so many little problems can be solved with just an extra bit of thinking

Imagine if our skin got greyer as we got older, just like with our hair

So many things I could become. But I only get to choose a few

Sometimes I focus so much on what I should do or how I should feel that I forget what I want to do and how I really feel.

had one of those banger dreams where my brain throws in so many references to all of my experiences lately. I see it as a thank you gift for finally having a long sleep after my week in Australia

realised I have trouble socialising if there isn't some sort of goal or structure. Playing games or talking about a specific subject makes things way easier

my emotional state is something I have to maintain instead of fixing it once and then forgetting about it? crazy

After 3 full weeks of nonstop editing, here's the new video! youtu.be/ySXP4hxFNFw
