A new #Minecraft snapshot 24w14potato appeared, adding an entire new dimension, blocks, mobs, paintings and many more. All of them, poisonous 🥔 themed.
Are poisonous potatoes the best Minecraft food? Who exactly is Potatolord of the Fried Legion? We may or may not learn answers to these questions with this very snapshot.
As usual, check out #MinecraftWiki page covering the snapshot, updated as we learn more at https://minceraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_24w14potato
Real reason is the bigwigs basically choke and scrutinise every tiny change. But april fools snapshots aren’t subjected to that. They have actually used it to trial real features.
Not to mention there’s no need to have parity with bedrock or any extensive bug testing.
I saw a moving block concept. Won’t be surprised if that makes it into the final game in some stage. Remember the random dimension snapshot? That code was basically re used to add custom dimensions in for mapmakers to utilise. And an old april fools snapshot added stained glass, horses, coal blocks, etc.
Isn’t this what snapshots are for? Let the community test things and report issues?
