12w04a is out with new stuff

If you haven`t already heard, 12w04a is out and it contains these things: 

• New jungle-specific mob that can be tamed
• Skeletons have new AI and a few new behaviors
• Various minor bug fixes and changes
• Added an experience item to creative mode
• Added a flame item…
• Updated language files

Additionally, some players have been trying to track changes not otherwise noted, and here's what Reddit writer keozen has compiled so far:

• A strange "well-type-thing" (technical term) people are finding in the desert 
• Jungle Tree Saplings (thanks Minecraftman1)
• The textures for dispensers and saplings have been changed. (thanks Minecraftman1)
• If a 2x2 square of Jungle Tree Saplings is made and one is fertilized with bone meal, a huge tree is made (Thank you, Wolfrose88 via Minecraftman1)
• When Ocelots are bred, they will give birth to...KITTENS! They come in black, red or siamese.  (thanks Minecraftman1)

Get the client here, and get the server here.

new jungle mob teaser

Jeb released a new teaser of the new jungle mob... i know, its a bit misleading at first, but look behind the grass on the right side :O and, Mojang is taking a poll about how you play minecraft! Vote here.

favorite biome: jungles

I just started playing around with 12w03a ( minecraft week 3 snapshot) and i have to say, the jungles are probably instantly my favorite biome. I love the idea of being surrounded by trees and leaves and such. Check it out here and get it here.

Cube World

I have come across a game that has caught my eye... Cube World. It "looks like minecraft but plays like zelda". As far as i can tell, the game is still in development by ONE MAN. Apparently it is a mix of  Zelda, World of Warcraft, Diablo, Monster Hunter and more. The early screenshots will instantly remind you of minecraft, but with a 3d hack n' slash action part to the gameplay. Check it out here: http://www.gamezebo.com/games/cube-world/preview

Minecraft Texture Packs

Minecraft texture packs truly are a great thing. They can make your game gloomier, happier, higher graphics, funnier, more kid friendly, and even resemble your favorite video game! Of course, for me at least, i can never seem to find them. Luckily, I found this post on Minecraft Forums that fixes this problem. Though it is not as actively updated as most people would like, it still has quite a few texture packs.
