Notch released this on his twitter: (i turned the brightness up, it was very dark)


Looks like there will be flying in Minecraft!

How on earth will that work? That seems like a really large change to some of the key gameplay mechanics!

Although this may be necessary for the whole sky world dimension thing to properly work

I hope that power comes like with awesome loot, like rocket boots or a magic ring.

That must be... the worst idea ever. I hope it doesn't last long, anyway.
Unless it's just the animation of being shot out of a cannon (which I hope it is), and that'll be the way to get up to the Aether/Sky dimension.

I'd like something more along the lines of a plane or zeplin instead of a magical cloud, that way you can build the item needed and it just looks better than some random person running on air.

Damn, I was hoping for a bi-plane and some flying goggles. Powered by coal.

Or a zeppelin. I appreciate the feature, but modders have already done more than this.

So what, snort a bit of the magic fairy dust found in dungeons and you fly for a period of time?

Will be hella helpful with building, but they could've done something... cooler looking.

So that puts him only how many months behind the modders?
Somewhere between "has a company to manage" and "also working on other stuff" months.

Minecraft has about 800 modders. Mojang has 8 employees.

Yeah... I'm very "meh" about this. This is to exploration what spawning building materials is to building. Unless it's a very rare, hard to craft, one use magic item... something to give you that same amazing view without it feeling so much like "cheating".

Dude, is that the cloud thing from Dragon Ball? *SQUEEE*
That's what I thought! *fanboy squeal*

OT: This should make it much easier to build my fortress in the sky. I fall to my death so many times while trying to build that damn thing.

what's notworthy to me is the fact that the planet seems curved... is that normal? is he going to make maps limited or something?

Being able to craft clouds maybe?
