Blogcraft - This world is MINE! craft...
By animateria 8 Comments
I haven't blogged on GB forever after my second Monster Hunter blog got gobbled up by a GB web error. I was severely traumatized that time and well....
.............. sniff..............
ANYWAYS! Minecraft has inspired me to try again. I'm planning on posting a couple of these, show casing a couple of my creations. I'd do it in one blog but man... It's a lot of images.
Welp. Here we go.
I hated my spawn point to be honest. It was right next to a large body of water and only dirt and sand all around.
No trees. No nothin. The first thing that happened to me when I spawned for the first time is a confusing walk around the area. Nighttime. Then death. Worst game experience ever.
Anyways, I found shelter in a floating piece of land over those stairs I've made. Turned it into a small dirt fortress. Looking out a small window, despairing at all the zombies, skeletons and creepers that walked around my shelter. Had to fight off spiders that would crawl around the roof too.
Well the first thing I did was convert my dirt shelter into something bigger and roomier. I added ledges so spiders would never bother my roof.
Then I started converting it from dirt into cobblestone. And finally when I felt secure and relaxed I made it what it is today. A entrance gateway that I use as shelter as well as a hub to all my other buildings. Wasn't easy you know? Building in the air... I had my fair share of death by falling off the ledges and everything.
And well, that started my mad craze to dig to the bottom of the World of Minecraft. And I had so much excess Cobblestone I had to do something with it.
It started humble enough... Making floating passageways to explore the world from above in my floating fortress. But man...
It got crazy.
First was the fountain. I had to make a fountain. It's just you know? The first thing any civilization should start with. Fountains.
Then of course I needed a farm. A floating one of course.
And what do I need to do to make all of this happen? I need to mine!
I mined sideways, upwards and downwards. But you know what? If I'm going to mine. I want to see how far down I can go. So I started digging straight down.
And down and down I went... Making a ladder that would take me straight up to the entrance I made.
And one day, I made it! I made it to the bottom of the world!
I mean to be fair there was lava all over where the ladder was so I had to dig around my origin point. Filled the area around the lava with glass to commemorate my dig. I hit rock bottom. In a good way.
It was glorious. I've fallen into pits that contained a bunch of monsters. Got attacked from caves that connected to my downward tunnel. Got blown up countless times by creepers hiding in corners of said caves. But I made it to the bottom of the world.
High on my victory I decided to make the most amazing thing I can think of. A giant building that would serve as the worlds first wonder.
You can already see the building here but the story is for another day.
Oh and my two Hubs that are on different Biomes. Nothing much to be said... Connected by a long 'floating' passageway, they are just small shelters for now.
