Recently, I had this idea where you would become a bird. Being a bird, you can't break many blocks without the assistance of tools and your hunger bar drains very quickly.
Some parts of the mod would deal with evading predation and making a home as well as gathering basic resources. Other parts would deal with raiding human settlements for diamonds and other unobtainable materials (the "canary-in-a-coal-mine effect" would stop you from mining yourself.)
As an added challenge, you cannot craft many vanilla recipes. This includes tools.
Interested? Reply and I'll add more details. I've got 'em all written down in case I need 'em.
(Also: No trolling, flaming, or sarcastic responses are accepted here...)
This is really cool. It would make a good mod. I don't have the skills to actually change the player model and gameplay aspects, but sum1 else might.
Thanks!
I was gonna ask DrZhark to use his Bird model, but I may just code my own. (I can code a bit, and while I'm no great shakes at modelling, I did hand-code a sea-serpent model for a Beta 1.5 mod I never released. T_T)
In the meantime, I'm going to focus on the lesser aspects of the mod (such as new items and mob behavior). I'm waiting for a bit more support to make sure I have a few interested that will make it worth my time coding.

Good luck with this mod, although i find it strange that a bird can use tools. Unless it's a giant bird, perhaps we can make a new nest block or make holes in trees to live in?

Yeah, I planned a new nest block...although holes in trees sounds kind of nice. Maybe I'll plan a "massive tree" that comes pre-generated with holes for forests/jungles.
I used McModeler a long time ago, but forgot it existed until now >_<

I'd love to see this model.
Are you being sarcastic, sir?
(Updated the original post, btw...little thing at the bottom...)
Also, I started coding. Now to actually get it to work ingame and I'll be good.

No no, I'm serious. It sounds pretty cool.

Hm, I'll have to input the code into a modeler and show you the .png. xD
