A New Minecraft Village!!

So, I recently decided to start my Minecraft server up again, but it was feeling boring. To fix that, I made it so that it's on Minecraft version 1.0! That came with a lot of drawbacks which I'll get into later. But first, I want to talk about what I've been building. I started out by building a church just as a temporary place to put my things until I got a proper house done. I had started a wheat farm on a nearby hill; I built a stone bridge over the river, and constructed a farmhouse near the field with a plow and other farm tools around it. Then I had the idea to build up a town around the lake with the church and the farmhouse. The next thing I built was a lighthouse, and I connected all of my buildings with gravel paths. The path to the lighthouse looked pretty empty so I added a little farmer's market, and off to the side past the lighthouse is a windmill. I don't know what buildings to add next. If you have any totally awesome ideas for buildings to add to my town then send them to me at mailbox@goblinpizzas.org.

Like I said, there's a lot of limitations to playing in version 1.0 such as the limited amount of blocks (mostly I've noticed the only really white block is white wool) or the notable lack of hotkeys (can't pick blocks or drag stacks in inventory). Another one I've noticed pretty frequently is how stairs don't connect, and slabs have to be placed on the bottom. There are some nice parts about playing on such an early version though; there's no deepslate layer and the world only goes down to Y level 0 (as it should). Another cool part about using the first released version is that it's a lot easier to make texture packs. You might've noticed that in the screenshot I have my own custom texture pack that I've been working on that makes my builds look just a bit nicer despite the lesser block selection.

I'm going to keep working on the town (as soon as I think of some buildings to add), and the texture pack, and I'll probably create another page in the future on the progress.
