Hang onto your feathered caps, game fans – the next Minecraft update is bringing ADVENTURE! The game is finally turning into a… game. They grow up so fast. ;_;
“We are working on Minecraft Beta 1.7, which I’m referring to as the ‘adventure update’,” writes game designer Markus “Notch” Persson on his blog. “We’re keeping the details secret so people can get surprises. The idea with this update is to flesh out the game a bit, making it reward exploration and combat more. Assuming we like them in play testing, pistons are coming in 1.7.”
But wait, there’s more!
“We’re starting the modding support on a small scale with 1.7. We’ll be giving the source code out to a very VERY small group of people before the release of 1.7. We’ll use those experiences to work out the final details, then we’ll get the modding api out as soon as possible after 1.7 has been released,” he adds, pointing out that by “modding api” he means “the entire source code for Minecraft, uncensored and unobfuscated”.
Just imagine how much stuff you could burn.
Unfortunately, no further information on this update has been confirmed at this time, not even a launch date.
