oh yeah I have a blog

SO ANYWAY I've been basically waiting angrily patiently for the Mod API for the better half of almost a year now. And I came to a conclusion- it'd be better to just make a whole new game at this point.

Design is still HEAVILY being worked on (and has been for the past, well, almost year now), but the more and more things are discussed, the more I realized I'd need to completely rip out Minecraft's code and overhaul it. It isn't worth it from that perspective.

Still, everything I've discussed and designed would be refitted towards a new game entirely- I don't plan on just throwing in the towel. It'll take time, though- but it'll be worth it.

I also might still toss out a mod with some really bare bones features to make Minecraft more enjoyable- some of the more specific ideas suggested, as well as try and work with a few existing mods to tie everything together. When the API is out, anyway.
