I was thinking about it, and I feel like this would be a nice biome. The grass would be pale green/whitish, and more flat than usual, with a few rolling hills. There could be sparse, light-colored bark trees around, and instead of green leaves, it could be cherry blossoms. There would be occasional "weather", with swirling cherry blossoms. I haven't though about mobs yet, maybe add a small fox mob or something?
I just had the strangest idea for a new block. This block would be constantly shifting through a smooth gradient of colors, possibly in some blotches all over the block. It links to the closest other rainbow block near it, which could possibly be multiple chunks away. It spawns a large rainbow that flies across the sky, which you can follow to the next rainbow block.
Only two can be linked at any one time, and if you destroy one, the rainbow disappears until you place it down again. This could be used to make an easy path from one place to another, if you make a base at one end of the rainbow and follow it to the other (you would have to safeguard the blocks so they don't get moved).
As an added bonus, maybe the first time they spawn in the world a pot of gold could sometimes be under one side, with rare items like gold bars and stuff?
I dont know, this just popped into my head. I might make a crude picture of it later. :biggrin.gif:
i really wish there was a shepherds crook or some tool we could make that could let us lead the animals into the fences or whatever. all i managed to do was get a pork cutlet into my corral. T_T
There is certainly something to be said to not need any materials to build with. Constant dangers of though! Well.. until you light it up with torches.
I'm a bit of an odd half breed...The Dwarvish/Orcish mutt.
I go around making trains and great fortresses, and stripmining...
And then at night I go outside and beat enemies into the ground.

oh wow! i totally forgot to add orc. stealing items from other people and beating them senseless. :biggrin.gif:
I wish I could pick up mobs arrows, too. I mean, I already can, but doesn't it make sense, too? Kinda? It doesn't really take away much challenge from the game, arrows are moderately easy to get, at least they aren't impossible like before.
well it would be fine except for one thing.. you could get infinite arrows from just dodging fire and picking them up indefinitely. which would sort of take the challenge out, yeah.
i almost certainly guarantee the slime look is not the final one. he probably slapped a texture on for a quick release today, and will tweak everything about it next week or after SMP comes out.

Elfen? Do you prefer to leave nature natural, and only build as you see fit, or live in the trees?
Dwarf? You laugh at the other wimpy races, and steel yourself, digging deep into a mountain to live with sturdy rock walls.
what other races do you think you can represent? post em in here, because i'm interested.
