The tipped arrows had effects on them, and when someone is hit by them, the effect is inflicted on them. Along with that, shields were added, which reduced your movement speed to crouching but made it so that all damage dealt by arrows are nullified and melee damage is reduced, and if you combine a banner with your shield, it will dye the shield.
A new kind of potion was added to the game as well, called lingering potions, which lingers around where you throw it. A new slot was also added to the game so that you can hold things in your left hand. The end was updated as well, allowing you to travel farther into it if you have an ender pearl and igloos were added into the game too.
This update also released mobs called shulkers and skeleton horses. A few blocks were added into the game as well, including magma blocks, which damaged you if you stood on it, nether wart blocks, brick, and bone blocks, which can be found in bone structures.
Three new mobs were added to the game as well, which included polar bears, and strays, which were just skeletons that spawn in snowy places and inflict slowness with their arrows. The last mob that was added to the game is the husk, which is a mob that is another version of the basic zombie but spawns in deserts and is immune to sunlight and also inflicts hunger on enemies that it attacks. Endermen after this update can reach the Nether. Roads in villages were also changed depending on where they are.
This update includes llamas, a passive animal that is able to be tamed. When attacked, it will spit at its foe. Another thing added was the woodland mansion, a naturally generated structure. It also added the End City, able to be reached after killing the Ender Dragon, with shulkers that shoot levitation bullets and drop shulker shells.

By , however, the company had fallen on hard times, and turned to contract work to make ends meet. Somewhat ironically, the strength of this independent ecosystem stems largely from the presence of large game companies in the region. Many indie studios are founded by people who cut their teeth at Microsoft, or Nintendo of America.
Beyond this, there is a strong sense of community around local gamer developers, Barth says. This includes such groups as the Seattle Indies collective, a group of developers who meet several times a week, all over the city, to discuss their work, collaborate on game concepts, and showcase their creations. Screenshot from InfiniFactory. Just last month, Zachtronics released two new games. The first is Infinifactory , which he calls "a sort of like a synthesis of all of our greatest games together, into one game.
In a cheeky twist of fate, Barth notes that Persson is also "a big Infinifactory fan. The player uses a corrupted, s-era computer to learn assembly language coding, writing programs to convert inputs to outputs. It was developed by Zach Barth of Zachtronics Industries with the help of his friend Chris Gengler in their spare time, [3] and released in steps of incremental updates during April and May of It quickly garnered a following on message boards around the internet, and inspired Notch to start working on Minecraft several weeks after it was discontinued.
Like Minecraft , Infiniminer is a block -based mining and construction game. Each class has their own set of abilities, tools, and blocks they can build with, with each costing a certain amount of metal ore to place. Most building blocks are team-colored and serve a specific function rather than being purely decorative, and playermodels and tools are flat sprites instead of 3-dimensional objects.
The sky is perpetually dark, and the landscape of the limited-size maps is made up entirely of bare dirt, stone, ores, and non-flowing lava blocks.
It was originally intended to be played as a team-based competitive game, where the goal is to locate and excavate precious materials such gold and diamonds, and bring your findings to the surface to earn points for your team, until the winning team reaches a certain amount of points. However, as the game gained popularity, players decided it was much more fun to build things than to compete for points.
Zachtronics discontinued development of the game less than a month after its first release, after a major source leak was discovered which allowed hackers to make unauthorized modifications to the game. Soon, there were players using modified clients to cheat on servers, and multiple communities arose each with different versions of the game, and it was hard for the developers to maintain Infiniminer , resulting in further development ceasing. In , the Google cloud server for the game was shut down, but the game is still available for download, and the source code of Infiniminer is now available under the MIT License.
