I made a vanilla mod that adds 3 classic iconic Arcade Games to singleplayer Minecraft 1.11.2. It has custom music/sounds, a top-down perspective and custom crafting recipes.
INSTALLATION:
The mod is imported via a Structure Block. First, you'll need to open your .minecraft folder either through the resourcepacks folder or by typing "%appdata%" into your computer's search bar. Find the saves folder and find whichever world you want to import it in (it works best in superflat worlds, but if you can tolerate some lag, it should work fine in normal worlds). Once you have that folder open, download this .zip file and dragging the "structures" folder into your world folder. If there's already a structures folder in there, just drag "arcade.nbt" into that. Make sure cheats are enabled and type in chat "/give @p structure_block". Set it to [L] or load mode and set it up like the image shown (the red circles highlight the important details). Then click "load" and it's installed!
GAMES
Pac-Man:
Pretty much what you'd expect. The only thing that's different is that I couldn't figure out a proper AI for the ghosts, so there's only one ghost in the maze, but all four ghosts are included, just not at once. There's a 1/4 chance for either Inky, Blinky, Pinky or Clyde to spawn. The rest is self explanatory; eat the dots, avoid the ghosts, yadda yadda yadda. If you win, you'll get 3 gold ingots.
Space Invaders
This is the most accurate of the 3, and it's practically a perfect emulation of the mechanics. You just shoot all the aliens before they get to the bottom, and try to avoid their shots. You can also shoot the red spaceship that occasionally flies across the top for extra points. If you win, you'll get an iron ingot.
Frogger:
This is the least faithful one, because while it's not impossible, it ended up being really really really difficult, which was never my intention, but unfortunately it was the best I could do. Again, same basic mechanics of the original game. Cross the street, avoid the cars, jump on turtles (Redstone blocks) and logs and get in the little holes at the end. If you win, you'll get one diamond.
I highly encourage anyone who wants to make a video or anything of the type about this, and any and all criticism is also much appreciated. I'm always trying to improve and get better, so don't hold back. Thank you to anyone who checks this out, and a video tutorial should be out soon!
