yesterday we announced our debut game Bad Magpie and we are so grateful for all the support
- hit 26k+ wishlists in 24hrs!!
- made lots of people laugh and cry (sorry)
- joined the "horrible bird game" genre
HUGE THANK YOU from our little team
our reveal trailer once again:
10 years.
10 years since Java got subtitles, and Bedrock still hasnt.
Why has it taken @Minecraft this long for such a crucial accessibility feature?
The playerbase deserves better.
Painter Kristoffer @Zetterstrand , who made the original @minecraft pixel paintings, let us make non pixelated versions for @aminecraftmovie . Set dressers used elements of his actual oil paintings. This one is from a piece he did in 2009 called “Moonlight Installation”.
every so often im reminded that a third unreleased c418 minecraft album exists out there but we'll probably never get to hear it because of legal shenanigans
man
Developer's note on the potion color changes: we recognize that this change is not going to improve the readability for all color blindness. A real solution is to make individual potion textures for each type, but for now we're just doing this small fix until we have capacity
I LOVE the new designs for the pots! I’m so glad we are getting #archaeology in this #Minecraft update!! 🏺
Now - any chance we could dye / glaze the pots? 🥺
Uncovering a 1.20 feature coming soon to snapshots/beta: Archaeology!
Find suspicious sand blocks near desert temples and start shoveling. Using the brush tool, reveal hidden items including pottery shards. Put four shards together to create a pot!

I think some mob votes, like the Allay, split builder and redstone community votes. I think the LGBT+ tumblr vote was heavily moobloom but some of us voted for glow squid! It’s interesting to see what happens every year! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Felix! #MinecraftLive
I read some of the past Minecraft vote blog posts…
Obviously it wasn’t all kids who voted for the glow squid. There were plenty of adults like myself who were drawn to it for lots of reasons! I don’t regret my choice and they complement the C&C update so well by adding life! 💙
I collected a few of my thoughts about the Mob Vote in a long, waffly post on my personal blog

TLDR: I am upset the Copper Golem, and now the Rascal, lost the votes because they were my favourite
I 100% agree in how adding more details to one mob tilts the scales and I think Felix brought up a good solution in the blog posts. I just wanted to add some insight from my communities on how we viewed the mobs!
