That appears to be a part of some new form of portal that you can only find in strongholds. The thing is that nobody knows how to activate it or where it goes. Smart money is on those skylands that Notch showed off months ago.

Also, I know that the baby animal sounds are just sped up versions of the regular sounds, but they're unbearably adorable. Simon from the Yogscast is going to squeal so loud that dogs will be barking two towns over.

Yeah, my money's on skylands. Good complement to the Nether, I think, although they should have some special feature like the fast-travel properties of the Nether, rather than just be the normal world but way up in the sky.

Almost sounds like the monolith in 2001

The enchantment table's kinda weird. It's like I'm in some game about Scrolls for Elders or something....

The random glass tower's are funny, it's like playing on the same savegame as my kid (he does that all the time). The dungeons are really neat though.

I thought the glass towers were found to be debugging code to mark out where the strongholds are? That's what I've heard, anyway. They shouldn't be in the real deal.

I guess we now know where the new portals go.

Great, a more powerful form of ghast.

If we could tame them and ride them, that'd be cool

they seem kinda cute, might need a fire hose if they breath fire though

No kidding. Proper big, scary dragons. Notch has been whining on his Twitter about what a pain coloring them's gonna be. The texturepack community is either cheering or crying right about now.

I don't know if it's just me, but with the new lighting system, depending on where you place the torches, sometimes they'll give off a bluish glow rather than a warm yellow glow.

Robert Maxwell · October 10 2011, 04:07 AM

I've only seen it happen momentarily right after I break down a torch (or a block with a torch on it.) As far as I've seen, torch light is always yellow. It does seem dimmer than it used to be, though--and sunlight seems brighter.

Love the sunset/sunrise and night illumination, though!
