Minecraft With Edwardos

A blog of Minecraft media, mainly focused on random screenshots I've collected over the years right now, with an emphasis on the retro shit. Maintained by a Minecraft history expert. A firm believer in the power of Minecraft Alpha. The sole developer of a certain Beta 1.8 mod. (LINK! https://modrinth.com/mod/noticeably-beta-1.8) Yes that is what I said. I am the male king of Beta 1.8. Accepts submissions, and it looks like we're starting to see NBODE ones. Powered by tags and, most importantly, your reblogs.

Chances are, I'll not be very present on here for the next seven days, starting nine hours from now. Nothing's wrong, exactly, I just need to spend a lot of time on this upcoming Stop Killing Games community game jam I've rejoined. For me it starts at 6 AM tomorrow, on July 18th.

The last time I did this, the hyperfocus and effort required to make a video game with such a basic framework knocked me out. But I plan to at least do the right time step lines this time. Last time I was praised in spite of the fastforward mode my game unexpectedly started doing. For all I know I'm going to kick ass in this contest.

I should be back on the eighth or ninth day after the start of the jam, as long as they don't extend it. Now, it'd be certainly tragic if I didn't end up being back after the game jam.

2021, most likely taken in modded Minecraft Beta that gives it the terrain shape from early Alpha.

Nobody expects the Survival Test mod...

I tried to build a beach hut because why not.

Stilt houses. 🖤

This is absolutely the most cringe thing in Minecraft.

It must be painful to play NBODE for five hours and then go back to Beta 1.8 vanilla and play that for seven days.

From January, 2025. Inside the mod's development folder.

You know, even if NBODE never gets an update again, I've already won. That's a sizeable stack of absolute Beta 1.8 gemstonage that could hold up for years. I know it has bugs, but they're not killing it. It's extremely playable. I am going to update it but it almost seems like 3 years and 7 months was all I needed.

My past self from the flower pot days would have to wonder how the heck I managed to get so into Minecraft Beta 1.8.

[edwardos]

I'm honestly sorry I didn't do this sooner.

[edwardos]

Noticeably Beta 1.8's old days.

I'm so tired.

CSS on that page was unfinished last night. Have a look again.

I'm so tired.

Still waiting on that 3D model, friendo.

With adults being pushed out of so many places nowadays, "my own Minecraft" with Blackjack and hookers sounds like it'd be a very nice thing.
