Wider Worlds
Minecraft has always been one of my favorite games and I love to see how it evolves over time as a Game Designer. For this design challenge I created a year long custom Minecraft Update "Wider Worlds" that follows my previous year long custom Minecraft Update "Magic and Morsels." Wider Worlds is centered around expanding and unifying Exploration and Progression in different aspects of Minecraft in each Drop. I made this Year long update into 4 different named Game Drops to mirror the development cycle at Mojang. This design challenge focused on expanding and designing blocks, mobs, biomes, mechanics, and more while staying consistent with the style, branding, lore, design philosophy, and identity of Minecraft. This is not a real Update or set of Game Drops.
My Roles
Game Designer, 3D Modeler, and Texture Artist.
Notice!
This is a design challenge not a real Update or set of Game Drops. The challenge is about revisiting and expanding on the themes of cooking and magic that exist in Minecraft. I utilized Blockbench, Aesprite, Clip Studio Paint, and Java Minecraft to mock up my designs and concepts following industry standard game design and development practices.

Its features include 8 New Biome Specific Illagers, Inventory Updates, Multiblock Placement Crafting, Tier Progression Updates, 5 New Structures, Hammer Weapon/Tool, 6 New Enchantments, and various Changes/Accessibility Features.
8 Biome Specific Illagers

While friendly with Illagers, different Illager Mobs can be Right Clicked to offer 4 Trades and 1 Service at the cost of Rubies that the Illager Mob will do for 1 Minecraft Day.

Summary
The design philosophy behind Drop 1: Omens of Industry was to refresh the progression system in new and fun ways while expanding the world of the Illagers. An inventory update felt natural within an industrial revolution themed Game Drop given how much the game has changed since some of the early progression and inventory systems were added. Omens of Industry was made the first Game Drop of the year to widen the possibilities of Minecraft from the start with things like native multiblock support, multiblock placement/destruction, mob faction focused gameplay, and fun new structures to explore that showcase how Minecraft has advanced industrially over the years.

Summary
The design philosophy behind Drop 2: Hollow Towers was to expand and update the magical aspects of Minecraft that were added in the 2011 Adventure Update. To do this I wanted to explore the lore behind magic and the Undead mobs of Minecraft. The Corrupt Hollow Biome was designed to be the origin Biome of undead Mobs and the newest Enchanting Tower Structure helps tie the Enchanting Mechanic naturally into the world of Minecraft using the Illagers who already practice Magic from Minecraft Dungeons. The update to the Cauldron was done to connect cooking and adventuring to magic in a fun and Minecrafty way while creating parity between Bedrock and Java Cauldrons.

The new Reach dimension is a sky island-like dimension. The Reach is a large diverse set of islands both surrounded by and above the Prismarine Sea. The Reach has 10 vertical Biomes known as the Echoing Isle, Prismarine Sea, Primordial Jungle, Basking Desert, Howling Peaks, Cryo Alpine, Cursed Marsh, Ooze Pools, Augmented Grotto, and The Scourge. The Reach is 64 blocks to every 1 Overworld block. The Reach has the inverted time of the Overworld with 2 moons and a large red sun which prevents Undead Mobs from burning during the day. The Reach is an endless sea with various islands that extend high into the sky and multiple levels of floating islands since the Y level of the Reach goes from -256 to 512 Blocks.
The Reach is home to the Reptids, an advanced adaptive race of lizard people who use soul magic, create golems, and raise the dead. There are various types of Reptids across the different Biomes in the Reach with most living in Village-like Enclaves that range in technological advancement. Reptids utilize the Sculk both for combat and as part of their culture as they feed it their excess undead for advancements in soul technology. Reptids notably hate the cold and actively hate any cold blocks or items around them and actively avoid them. The Reptids, like the Piglins also enjoy gold and have fought them over it in the past hence their creation of Ocean Monuments to protect it. Reptids, Endermen, Piglins, and Illagers all do not like one another. Reptids will immediately become hostile towards Players unless they have Enchanted items on them, or wear Ascendant Steel Armor. Reptids do not Trade or Barter. Instead, Reptids offer Quests to Players that can be turned in completed for rewards.

Summary
The design philosophy behind Drop 4: Mystic Lands wraps up the Magic and Morsels Update with the last set of new additions to cooking and magic. Expanding on fishing and dungeons felt like a natural end to the year as both features take the concepts of cooking and magic in fun new directions. The last Drop of the Update is perfect for polishing and rounding off features that were released in Drops throughout the year. The Magic and Morsels Custom Minecraft Update has been a blast to work on and I can see features like the ones I designed eventually being added to Minecraft.
