So, I guess I'm on Blueky now, hi everyone! The new Roguecraft update is very close to being done, so I thought for my first post here, it might be good to go over all of the teasers I posted on my discord server over the past 7 months, so... (1/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

The first teaser, posted almost 7 months ago, announcing that development on 1.3 has begun. (2/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

A new panorama screen showing the Infinite Garden, a permanent build area outside of the hub area. Of course something else is hidden here, something that I continued to do throughout these teasers. (3/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWfr...

Now this one I'm REALLY excited about. One of my least favorite parts of Minecraft is the stronghold, and for Roguecraft, where you have to do it again and again every run, it gets repetitive, so I completely overhauled it. (4/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

Bows have been buffed quite a bit, with new upgrades and even a way to obtain a crossbow instead of a bow. (5/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA93...

The old ability icons have been fully replaced. The vast majority of sprites and models in this update were made by @penguh.bsky.social, and that of course includes these spellbooks. (6/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jDJ...

Previously, all classes only had a single class ability, but thanks to these books, you can now toggle between multiple. (7/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=I85Z...

Scrolls are a new type of consumable item that act as a single use ability. (8/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbG4...

Ahhh, Smithed Summit... Good memories. It was a data pack convention that I got to create a booth for. Of course, this was the perfect opportunity to tease some more features for 1.3. Shoutouts to @smithed.net for hosting the summit, it was truly amazing. (9/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

1.3 adds two new abilities, one of those being shockbolt. (10/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D2G...

Originally, this was meant to be a polish / QoL update, which did change later on to be fair, but one of things originally planned was to rework all of the abilities to some extend. (11/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKZJ...

I mentioned how 1.3 adds two new abilties, the first one being shockbolt, but the second one was a bit of a mystery at that point, yet still, people had all they needed to guess what the other one was and what it could do. (12/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

Eventually someone figured it out and I revealed Copy, one of my favorite new abilities, as it really ties a lot of the things in this update together. (13/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft youtu.be/PbhrwUWR-ok

As I said before, the original focus was partly quality of life and polishing, and one of the improvements made was to the upgrade unlocks after defeating a boss. (14/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft youtu.be/AmFoujPCAOM

Of course, there have also been a handful of new upgrades. (15/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktV1...

Finally, the update name was revealed, being "Roguecraft Reborn". (16/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft

No context for this one lmao (17/20) #mcdev #minecraft #roguecraft
