The map uses a lot of features from the latest snapshots, things that, for the most part, can't be done in 1.7.
Also, the map is very short, a preview would be a very little thing.
Unfortunately, 1.8 will come out only on late summer.
This project is too short, is not worth doing an update once 1.8 came out.
I haven't thought that a lot of people can't use the snapshot.
I have to see what I can do...
Oh... I see. =(
Maybe, it's just something to remember for next time?
Besides, even if this map doesn't have a lot of interest yet, you still have 200+ subs!
That's 200+ more than me! haha =D
Wow! I really appreciate your comment.
I still feel pretty new to Minecraft as a whole, but I've seen Gloria and Diversity playthroughs before, and it really means something to me to see a much more experienced map-maker have something nice to say about my work.
Nothing has been broken in the map, but do you have any plans to expand or remake the map? Like make other versions of this?
To be honest, I would love to make more versions or "sequels" of this map. I have some ideas on what I would like to do, but I'd rather adjust after I see what people really like and don't like about it.
If you think there is something major I could do to improve already, I might make another version of this one for people who have more of your tastes. For anyone else who reads this, please let me know if something comes to mind, and I'll see what I can do, too.
Anyway, thanks for that question!
I think I'll make a "FAQ" kind of section, even though I've only been asked once! haha
Just in case someone else has the same question, they'll be able to see the answer right away.
Hey, oip_qio! This map looks fun and unique. I'll definitely give it a go! I'll tell you when I finish it.
Thanks! I'm really glad it caught your eye.
If you end up making any media on it, please do share, too. =D
I'd love to share your work for everyone else to see.
Hello there, I took a look at your thread, and it seems like an interesting compilations of different games.
I think it shows what you like to do as a Minecrafter, and I like that.
My main hesitation to try it out is that it needs the snapshots... =(
Maybe, updating once 1.8 comes out or making another "preview" version in 1.7 might help people either get a taste of it or be more comfortable trying it out?
Good luck!
Hope this helps anyone else looking at making maps, too. =)
Edit: Oh my... I completely forgot why I came to post on this thread...
Hello Monsieur Smalec! =)
I've also recently released a new map to crowd the crowds of new maps for you to discover, and I just hope it's not too bad.
In a sense, it's simply familiar old Minecraft with a quirky twist, but I would love any of your thoughts on even just how it appears if you have the time.
You can find it here on the forums at this link and here on MinecraftMaps.com.
Otherwise, I wondering if there was ever a time where you'd be free to have your brain picked just a little bit more. =D
I adore all the work you've put in to reviewing all these maps, and I feel like you've had a lot of time to become quite objective and standard with your ratings. It has already helped me immensely. You wouldn't want to see the first few iterations of my map at all... haha
I would just really like to know more about who you are and what you are like as a normal player of games.
What do you like in particular when you play different genres?
Maybe, it could be an interview kind of thing, where you could tell us some of your absolute favorite moments in the maps you've played and a general theme in why you like them so much?
Personally, it would help me a lot to know what makes you enjoy the game, so I can creatively evoke those kinds of emotions rather than following whatever everyone else does to just keep your attention.
Please forgive me if you've already made something like this that I haven't found yet.
I've only found the "Minecraft Map History" playlist, which helps a lot, but it's still a bit hard to put together who you are as a gamer.
If anyone else knows of something like this, please let me know. I would really appreciate it. =)
Thanks so much for your time to everyone who reads this.
Thank you, rsmalec, again for your all your amazing work!
Haha, so far I'm liking the balance of resources and the unique gameplay. I'll definitely keep exploring!
edit: I think adding in screenshots would actually be a good idea for people who don't want to have to watch a video to see the map!
Thanks for the input! I just included some screenshots near the beginning, and if anyone else sees this and wants more visuals, there are also some pans of each dimension in the first "infomercial"/trailer video.
"Meet the Mobs" is a survival map played on massive Minecraft mobs that are floating over a wonderfully empty void.
Discover snippets of the mobs' stories by digging into their statues, and try your best to survive just like the Minecraft we know but with a new spin.
Enjoy!

What is it like to play this game? Well, watch the "infomercial" below, silly!
Here is a silly "silent film" to showcase some of the stories explained by the mobs themselves!

Would you like to see more "Meet the Mobs"?
Please use your judgement when deciding to watch the playlist below.
They are simply all the first episodes on "Meet the Mobs" that I, oip_qio, can find so far, and some videos may include swearing or other statements commonly found to be offensive, profane, vulgar, disrespectful, etc.
I apologize for not being able to view all of them thoroughly myself, but I would like to have this playlist to make it easier for anyone searching for them, and I am finding new series almost every day.
If you have a recording of your own that you'd like to include, please send me the first episode via Minecraft Forums or to my email via my homepage.
I would love to see them and share.
Thanks everyone for being a part of my life and "Meet the Mobs"!

It's a survival map.
A Letter to You, Awesome Minecrafter
Hello Fellow Minecrafters,
Thanks for checking out my new map! Thanks for taking the time to read this, too.
This is actually my first map, so I would love lots of your helpful pointers, comments, and opinions. Obviously, I can't change my creative flavor on things, but I would love to hear everything you all have to say about this map, so I can get a better idea of who you are and what I could do to better entertain each of you more, even if it's not with a single map.
I'm also quite new to these forums, so if you want to reach me for any comments you would rather keep between us, please feel free to send me an email through the contact form at my site here. Just to note, however, if your comment ends up being very helpful in some way, I'll probably ask you if I can share it to help other players who view this map or who also make maps.
Finally, if you decide to record this map, which I would appreciate greatly, feel free to use the images I created to be paired with this map. It's for your convenience and to maybe make all of them appear more unified. Please just don't forget to credit me!
Thanks again for your support!
Sincerely,
oip_qio
Helpful Map Tips Provided to you by Other Awesome Minecraft Players and oip_qio
This map was created on 1.7.9. It might be best to play on this version.
Eyes of Ender are unfortunately not functional in this game. Instead, I've created a little scavenger hunt for the coordinates of the End Portal. Just find all three different sponges.
Mods are not needed to play this map; however, you may utilize any mod you would like to use to enhance your own experience in gameplay. They just might not be useful or impact the game at all, such as any terrain generating mods or some special item mods that require other ingredients that aren't in the vanilla game.
If you end up using mods, it also might be best to use compatible versions with 1.7.9.
Bonus Achievements unfortunately, do not appear in the game. The folder included in the download is for your convenience to see all of them in one place or to edit them into a recording.

Have a question?
Check here to see if I already have the answer for you!
Will you be remaking this map into different versions?
At the moment, I'm compiling a list of things that I'd like to change for an updated map since most of them are aesthetic improvements that may make the gameplay feel a bit different. I don't have an estimated time of release since I'd like to get more feedback before changing the map drastically, but I will definitely be updating this forum post to include all versions.
Will there be a sequel?
Yes, I am planning on a sequel-ish map. It won't be exactly the same, but the main theme of massive mobs will definitely be back!
When do you plan on releasing the next "Meet the Mobs"?
The next map is planned for some time after 1.8 is officially released since I'd like to use all the new mobs and some of the new features.
Are you working on any other maps?
Yes. It's a secret.

I just responded to a post of yours that I found in another thread.
Just mentioned my hesitations on the snapshots there, too.
