I made a map of the world in Minecraft! It's 851 blocks across and features some 269 major cities, as well as rivers, lakes, mountain ranges, local wildlife, and general points of interest.
Me and my friends made an ice boat obstacle course which is incredibly fun and harder than it looks.
I made a little construction animation
Another island finally finished! This one is a custom mesa/desert island with a small oasis on top. I'm currently on day 3090 in this singleplayer survival world. What do you think about the island? I personally love the way it turned out.

Minecraft 1.16 Release Candidate 1 is out!

Out with the old, and in with the new! Today we're introducing a new naming convention (well, it's been a while) for Minecraft Java Edition. Previously, the last pre-release was in fact the release candidate, but we're now making that more clear by changing the name to be "release candidate". This means that if there are no major issues following this release, no further changes will be done before the full release.

Speaking of the full release: In case you've been living under a rock (it's Minecraft, so that's OK), we're releasing the Nether Update on Tuesday, June 23. That's next week!

This update can also be found on minecraft.net.

If you find any bugs, please report them on the official Minecraft Issue Tracker.

Fixed Bugs in 1.16 Release Candidate 1

Fixed issues with the Nether surface generation, causing issues like floating lava and crimson forests without nylium
MC-150543 - Using a stonecutter can sometimes crash the game in certain circumstances
MC-174790 - Mob on turtle eggs causes the game to crash
MC-181833 - Crash on world startup after playing world in 20w18a

Get the Release Candidate

The Release Candidate is available for Minecraft Java Edition. To install the pre-release, open up the Minecraft Launcher and enable snapshots in the "Installations" tab.

Testing versions can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds.
