Minecraft has introduced me to a style of game, for years I avoided.  A simple idea with easy to understand rules, an open-world randomly generated sandbox. Over time the game has expanded, adding new blocks and new items. I remember hosting my own server, creating a base on the side of a mountain. Years passed I never touched it again, recently however I found my love for the game again. The Redstone element of the game lets you create machines that can automatically farm resources. Two main versions of Minecraft, the bedrock for console and Java for everything else. Redstone for bedrock is weird compared to java certain thing. Pistons act randomly in bedrock, causing certain machines not to work from java. Bud system is another example, blocks that can be powered don’t work.

I need to put more time into the game. Learning how to use redstone to speed things up. The building is the other challenge, crafting better-looking things. For some time I always avoided games like Minecraft now it perfect break from everything else. Makes me remember the days of lego. That just what I needed during the constant lockdowns.
