^Yep that pretty much sums them up. You should watch the 'Zero Punctuation' review of Minecraft that gives you an amusing idea of what to do in the game

I've got slimes in my mine again.

This time though I was able to get some screenshots.





I'm still not sure how they spawn down there given the lack of space.

so basically, you mine for materials, build buildings, walls and make weapons, tools and armour with it, then kill green evil cubes which try to destroy whatever you've made?

Slimes aren't the destructive ones, it's these you need to look out for:

They bounce around making 'fap fap fap' noises and if they see you try to push you around and/or follow you. Only the really big ones can actually hurt you.

Zombies can also hurt you, but they're a minor nuisance. Skeletons on the other hand have bows and arrows and are a much greater threat.

Generally speaking, monsters spawn in darkness. At night, they spawn on the surface, and at any time in the day, they spawn in poorly lit caves. And then they try and kill you.

Non-monster mobiles spawn on grass, sand, etc which is properly lit.Q

There's also lots of unique bits. For example, there's redstone, which is basically circuitry-- you can use it to play music, to open doors remotely (or just to open iron doors period), to detonate TNT remotely, to build cannons, etc. Fluid mechanics are pretty interesting, and very useful, as are the various plants you can grow.

There's a second world called the Nether, which is basically hell-- an ocean of lava, rocks which burn until manually put out, mud which looks like it has a person's face in it, stalactites which glow brightly, zombie pigmen, floating baby heads with tentacles that shoot fireballs at you...

Yeah, sadly, slimes don't spawn in the nether.

And weirdly enough slimes can drown.

Yes, at the smallest size they can't hurt you, so they just bounce around you.

Just a bit.

Also I managed to find a big cavern on the DAKKA seed world with a lot of resources jammed in it. Found an iron vane, diamond vane and redstone vane all in the same spot. All on my hunt for a pet slime.
The co-ordinates of this vane is X: -8.56, Y: 17.62, Z: -15.21.

There was more diamond under the redstone then redstone under the diamond.


This picture Tyyr posted shows where to dig.


I made my house on that tree that has the missing trunk in the picture and started digging at the base of it.

You can't play multiplayer without the full game and playing with people is much better than playing with yourself.
