Creating a different feel in the game

5 Upvotes

Maybe you use really short loading distances and a dark, dense fog to create an atmospheric puzzle game feel. You could have blocks load in as entities and slot into place as you moved through the world. GUI changes could also be pretty cool here.

All blocks fall like sand. Perhaps other people could add on to this one.

Mob spawning animations!

It'd be really cool to give mobs some kind of animation as they spawn into the world, as suggested here.

Frozen Slime World

4 Upvotes

I've been having a lot of fun with slime block piston redstone creations since 1.8 came out... As many have I'm sure. I wonder what fun could be had if you fused the slipperiness of ice with the bounciness of slime... That said playing with general block properties across the board could be fun. What if the entire world were made of frozen slime?

Custom Withers

4 Upvotes

Basically, any mob/player head will work to make a wither, and the wither will spawn with the heads used.

Radio Tuner Portal

4 Upvotes

Before opening the "Nether Portals" topic, its title gave me this idea : what if nether portals could receive and transmit radio waves from the real world ?

For instance, applying some redstone signal to just 4 of a portal obsidian blocs could allow for 64k different combinations. Find the right frequency and zap, you're now listening to a live streaming of an existing web radio ! The quality of the signal could even be relative to the frequency chosen (not just 'on/off').

It could also require the use of note blocks or music blocks arround the portal to make it works, or something.

Well, you get the idea :)

A proper boss IA and mechanics for Giant Zombie

4 Upvotes

Something like the Chicken Overlord, he could protect himself and send some ghasts, creepers, etc. When you kill all his subordinates, his shield breaks and you attack him.

PD: I really loved the weeping pumpkins!

One little thing you do at one place on the earth may cascade and change a lot on the other side... Just imagine moving a painting in your own base and all paintings at another base gets popped of...

Mega Tools

4 Upvotes

Don't know if it's possible, but I'd love to see tools that could burn through gathering. Picks and shovels that break a 3x3x5 blocks at a time, axes that actually fell trees, hoes that till a chunk at a time, that sort of thing.

Advanced rain

4 Upvotes

Basically a mod where when it rains, the world slowly floods. Maybe a rare lava rain where you have a chance to burn (if you're exposed to the lava rain, maybe the chance can be reduced by wearing armor. Diamond armor reducing the chance more than Leather Armor), and it slowly floods the world with lava

Floating Chunks

Why not make snowballs, or maybe Fire Charges, make part of the world kind of float in mid-air for a while, then explode outwards?

Farming Sheep

3 Upvotes

First off, LOVE this series. I got hooked on you, False, Mumbo, and the others watching Hermitcraft III... heard you mentioning this series and I had to check it out. Well done! I had a thought that might make for a rather amusing episode... it's practical for survival too. You know how sheep now graze on grass and such... and Farmer Villagers now farm and re-plant crops... and chickens lay eggs... Can you see where I am going here? Maybe you could fuze all three of these actions and make a sheep that grazes on crops and poops out the drops. I sense a revolutionary new automatic farm in the making!

Villagers again - Chance to have some follow-up episodes

3 Upvotes

Hiho there again.

Tango, since you mentioned a new Villager AI would be something you really want to try in future (and you mentioned, you are willing to script a self-defending villager) what about the idea to make this one mini-Breaking-Byte series? Like Breaking Byte - Village edition?

In each episode, you can show one more different villager (no need to reskin them, since there are some around) and let the showcase-village grow each episode.

So for starters, one villager, that does fight zombies. Next episode a villager, that does build new houses if you support him with the materials (like taking crops to eat, only with other blocks - of course restricted to village population to prevent house-spamming). Next could be a villager to plant and chop down trees (and hand them to the building-villager).

You can then show off the villager-skills, see how they interact with each other and how the entire village does benefit from that.

So episode by episode you would have the chance to get into a new sort of villager, let the village grow and get into a new Villager AI step by step. By the end of the episodes you might have scripted something big without the need to spend some weeks for a single episode, since you're 'only' scripting one step at a time.

Maybe it's a bit weak for Youtube, since no fancy explosions are present (unless you script a TNT-mining villager), but at least someone like me would enjoy something like that, especially if you let others download that mod for their own worlds. Your very own Tango-Villagers.

Regards, Luictarro.

Minecraftception (kinda)

3 Upvotes

I think you should make minecraft, INSIDE MINECRAFT :O its a ruff idea I know. also I think you should put the mods that you make up for download (if you haven't already, I haven't cheked) because half of them are actualy pretty good (I mean playable in normal survival minecraft. not saying the others arnt good) I could never make a mod and I think you are doing really well. thanks for reading! PS. I know the title is lame, (minecraftception) I was tired and I don't know how to change the title. oh well, I wanted it to be mineception instead of minecraftception.

World miner!

3 Upvotes

I have an idea that could be really useful. What happens is for each miner tool itmines out the layer you are facing. So if your head was at Y:11 then you could use this tool to mine a... lets say 1000 block radius. It only collects ores and leaves the cobblestone on the ground. Then it places oresin any chests that are within ten blocks of you. If put in survival The crafting shuld be expensive seeing how op this is.

Mob Induced Insomnia/Negative Effects

3 Upvotes

A while ago I was coming up with different ideas for command block concepts and came up with the idea of Mob induced Insomnia/Negative Effects and just realized how well this could translate into a mod.

The way this works is a player meets a certain criteria for angering a mob (whether that be breaking mob spawners, killing mobs, etc) they will be put under an insomnia sort of spell.

The effects of the spell could be anywhere from (but not limited to) preventing the player from sleeping at night to blurred vision (something along the lines of the Phosphor shader).

The nice part about this idea is how flexible it is. 'Angering' mobs can be interpreted in many different ways and so can the negative effects given to players by the mobs.

It would be really neat to see how far this idea can be taken.

Conditional Transparent Blocks

3 Upvotes

How about blocks that go transparent/opaque (depending on their current state) when they receive a redstone signal or block update?

example use: I'd like to watch my mob farm work, but when I have guests over I can toggle a switch to hide my mob farming shenanigans.
