Just a quick one before I clock off for the day: you would not believe what the kids are up to inMinecraftright now. Well, you probably would, because it’s Minecraft, the sandbox building sim that contains all possibility and all human endeavour, with the exception of good PvP mechanics, yes I went there.

Anyway,Minecraft update 1.21is just around the corner, and a few players have gotten early accessvia Mojang’s snapshot releases. I had thought the crown jewel of the update would be the new Trial Chambers, aka trap-filled mazes. It turns out the real star might be the new Breeze mob - in the hands of imaginative players, at least.

You can also position Breezes around a platform made of trapdoors to create a variant on Spleef, the original Minecraft minigame. I know all this because Reddit user GergYT went to the trouble of building it. Here’s a video of their endeavours. If you can’t get the embed to load, check out theReddit threadin question.
