Music video: Ores
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynX9WAEi7z0 Katy Perry has a single called Roar. Ores is a spoof. It’s a Minecraft spoof of said song. These guys are certainly more successful than my first Minecraft adventure in which I wandered off, got lost and only survived the night by clinging to the top of a mountain as to stay out of […]

GMOD offers a client to manage your mods
Are you a fan of modding? That’s either the creation of new bits of software for your favourite game or simply grabbing someone else’s published creation and adding it to your game. One of the first mods I saw that caught my attention was one that changed zombies to Teletubbies in Left4Dead. I’ve never applied […]

A family of plushy Creepers
This cute family of Minecraft Creepers are the creation of Lithium Boy. The big one, the first he created, is pretty tall for a plushy and reaches 13 inches tall. If only Creepers in Minecraft were like this. They’d be far less scary.
