I liked your lighthouse idea Debara, so I went and build my own in my single player world. (Albiet not as good)

The world is a bit sparse since I usually play on a multi-player server which is down for the moment.

Never played Minecraft, but every screenshot I've seen has this tragic emptyness to it, no matter how grand the structure depicted. Like those dreamworlds you roam forever in Inception.
Tic Tac, sir?

Hmmm, I've not seen Inception but after scrolling through the screenshots in this thread again I think I see what you mean.

Nice Lighthouse Kaito :) Mines you can't even go in, the island/rock its on is to difficult to climb and the structure was to small to add anything inside or a balcony. I like that you added lava, i added the lightstone from the nether but its very dim.

Starting to miss my server....i have to try to figure out whats wrong so i can return to it. If i do you guys can join.

You may need to download the multiplayer server again from the main website. You need to do it everytime it updates. Tis annoying.

Nah, that's not the case. A mate of mine on another forum runs the server and he didn't want to leave his computer running while he was away for a few days.

I'll try and get some photos of the creations in the server when it's back up.

Pretty interesting, going to fun figuring out how to cross the different lands and scary while digging. The next block could be your gateway to hell.

This seems like a good place to pimp out Terraria. It's basically a 2D minecraft with metroidvania elements. It's also on steam which is sweet.
