I've been thinking a lot about forgotten Minecraft minigames recently. Lava Survival and Zombie Survival from Classic were some of my favorite games back in the day. They were so simple but really shaped my early experiences with the game. Are there any other forgotten minigames that you remember?

What version of Windows is most nostalgic to you? For me it has to be between Windows Vista and Windows 7. I always used XP and 7 as a kid -- but I used to watch Team Avolition videos which was my only exposure to Vista. Trying to theme my computer to be Vista-inspired right now. >:3

I would love to see more Advancements added to Minecraft that spark creativity like the On A Rail achievement. Even though the task is just to build a long ass rail -- it accomplishes much more than that. It gives an idea to the player that they might not have thought about before.

A screenshot of the start of a railway. A sign reads "ON A RAIL. Project Complete".A monument constructed at the end of a railway that reads "Achievement Get! On A Rail" with pixel art of a Rail above it.A side angle screenshot of the railway.A far away screenshot that has the railway in the background.

It's so weird having an interest around nostalgia because you will meet so many people who love whimsy and fun... and then you'll meet the people who are just constantly mad at the world. It's even weirder when the interest is a block game LOL Anyway here's a house I built on modernbeta.org

A screenshot of a 2011-style Minecraft house built using Cobblestone, Sand, and Wood. It is sitting on a hill that rises in elevation right before meeting the ocean.A close up screenshot of a 2011-style Minecraft house built using Cobblestone, Sand, and Wood. There is a sign that says "Residence of PoeticRainbow".A third-person screenshot of a 2011-style Minecraft house built using Cobblestone, Sand, and Wood. The player is looking at the house while holding a Stone Sword.

While there might not be as many animations at the previously blue bird app, everything here is so snappy. Not to mention I love how quick refreshing my home feed is. Just click on the home button again and boom. New posts!

everyone Joining bluesky feels like we have all Just logged onto a new minecraft Server but nobody has tools and its Night time and there are mobs everywhere but the Power of friendship will keep us Alive and oh shit oh no a creeper guys help pleas oh my go

Did you know that the texture for Cobblestone released in Minecraft Beta 1.7 was actually a clever reusage of the old sprite? The image was split and shifted around with a few edits to create the modern Programmer Art Cobblestone! This happens a lot with Minecraft textures - have a look!

A visualization of the edits made to the Cobblestone texture in Minecraft Beta 1.7.3.

I'll miss the old days of the bird app, but excited to see how Bluesky evolves. Would love to find others interested in early 2010s nostalgia, Minecraft, and Pokemon. Minecraft Content Creator www.youtube.com/@PoeticRainbow Creator of Golden Days poeticrainbow.github.io
