Adding a Dragon to my Minecraft RPG to spite my viewers

Recently I made a game that turned Minecraft into a turn-based RPG it only had two levels the village in the cave and let’s just say that the final boss of the game as well questionable considering the absolute disaster state that the software is in at the moment my

Only choice is to make it into an actual full game this is already the best Minecraft spin-off game I’ve played I love it I love this game now the first order of business is to make a new Overworld level so the player can travel between locations like in the old Dragon

Quest and Final Fantasy games to start off the project I started working on a block that would essentially be the surface of the big flat Overworld with a level of grass dirt Stone deep slate and bedrock at the end I then move on to making a mountain model which was

Honestly horrible and looked more like a bird poop than anything else we also needed some Force to populate our huge new Minecraft world so I started making some teeny tiny little trees I’m in the broccoli I moved on to making models for the different overall structures that

The player could visit the village a nether portal and some rulings which would lead to the underground stronghold I took all of those and cobbled them together into a big messy pile and surprisingly something pretty decent came out of it not half bad actually I wasn’t a fan of the grass model though

Since instead of looking like a huge block it just looked like normal Minecraft grass because of the noise texture that I used on it while I was at it I also made the bigger version of the mountains so there would be some variations and it wouldn’t all just look

Like a big unchanging field of bird poop I placed the new Mountain scene at the river and made the waterfall of the edge because the world is actually flat here unlike the real life Earth which we all know is a rhombicausidi dodecahedron I tested out the huge Overworld map and it

Was looking really nice this actually looks really good yeah we’re doing okay there was only a single issue which is that walking on top of the village didn’t really do much aside from stomping the houses of the poor villagers to the ground and pulverizing all of their hard work and happy lives

So I quickly made a script to connect the village border here to the outside and vice versa so that everything now worked pretty well we go back in here oh yes oh this is so cool okay amazing ah it’s a world map oh God this brings memories of old RPG games where they

Have like the giant map and then you have to like walk through it I also told this corner of the map needed some details so I made the single house to place in the middle of the forest here as a far-off secret and they made it so

That you need to wrap around the whole map to get there to find um I had no idea yet but uh we’ll figure out what to put in this super secret and important area later I also wanted to add something here for the player to find

Right when they exit The Village so I tried to make a very little chest model but it looked extremely dumb I do not like this chest I don’t like it so I just decided to make an entire new level I will make a Sentry Tower I made the

Model for a combat Tower where you’d find some enemies and a treasure at the top there it goes I decided to immediately make some enemies to put in the tower so I took the zombie model I already had and turned that into a skeleton and he looked pretty cute yeah

Hell yes since I was at it I went ahead and also made an Enderman model and gave them a considerable dumpy there he freaking goes dude for the structure of the tower I made a brick model and then I used Steve’s house as a base and started making the structure of the

Tower itself amazing check it out I am out here this is great dude this is so good I decided the treasure at the top would be an iron helmet to boost the player’s defense a little and also add a little bit of drip so I made the item

Texture and then model the actual 3D elements to put on Steve’s head and not gonna lie my man looks pretty sick yes that works so well always use protection finally true I forgot that was the description actually at this point I wanted to work on one of the most

Important changes from the previous version since last time I had used a regular turn based combo system I decided to go for a tactical turn based combat desktop which also allowed me to add more party members to Steve’s team but who could be the right candidate for

The team you could ask well this capybara that I made last time and that’s just strong around town of course I added an option to recruit the little guy after giving him an Apple so he’d accompanied Steve in his adventures outside the village recruit recruit the capipura

Oh my God oh I can control the capybara oh but at this exact point something serious started happening my chat was asking no demanding that I added another team member a cat girl during the entirety of the stream the situation had gotten worse and worse how am I supposed

I have 16 pixels to work with and my attempts at ignoring or even dismissing the requests were getting weaker and weaker until I gave in that’s it I’m adding the cat girl what is wrong with you guys I had to make my chat shut up so I loaded up the model maker and

Started working on the potential new member of our party after a few minutes of careful reconsideration of my career I had created the secret that would be placed in the secret house on the map what a stain on an otherwise perfectly Clean Slate of a game this is a stain on

My reputation bro oh my God and of course after not even an hour there was some fan art posted on my Discord of course on the second day of development I started working on the nether Dimension to which Steve would travel using the portal I could add a mechanic where you

Could light the portal with slint and steel yeah yeah yeah I opened a fortune cookie to start the work day off which was you know definitely a good prediction of how the situation would be in a little bit I started working on another block to use as a base for the

Portal and also made obsidian gold lava and chains to go along with it with my blocks ready I started building another portal map that would later lead into The Nether itself I placed down Netherrack built the portal frame Place some stone bricks around it Gold Blocks

On top chains a hidden chest in the back and then trees as a counter warning big obsidian thing ahead we don’t know what it does but it smells funny they call me the secret finder let me show you why this is why they call me the secret

Finder that is that is impressive yes I connected the entrance to this map to the Overworld miniature and then immediately moved on without wasting a single second now it was time to work on the actual matter I started by placing a central floating island in the middle

And by adding a lot of lava in the background I got amount of blocks below I then made some bridges that would connect to the two other islands for which I would need some new blocks I made Nether Bricks for another Fortress and some warped wood leaves and nylia

For the Warped Forest where you’d find Enderman I also made a blaze model and gave it a little fiery floaty animation which looked really cute I started using a new blocks to build a section of another Fortress with a blaze spelling point on the left of the main island and

They placed a couple of blazes in there all nice and cozy in the fiery depths of hell oh look at them dude look at little guys and then I made that blue warped Forest by on the right as the little ruined house in the center which would later become of critical importance and

Then place two wonderment at the top on the bottom of it I then sprinkled in some details like the support beams for the Fortress and a small Lava River floating through the main island I connected the two portal Maps together and then hopped in for a test of the map

And there’s the portal I walk onto this okay this is actually really laggy it’s rendering out to way too much stuff look at this on top of everything else I also decided to place a little ruined structure here to give a few signs of civilization to finish the second day

Off I was only missing the item drops from the mobs I had just placed into the world and the way to actually light the portal so I started making ender pearls blaze rods flint and flint and steel items all completely useless to me right now but would fix that later that’s such

A good flint and steel texture I then worked on the most difficult model so far the actual portal model which was really difficult to animate because of the way the swirl connects with the adjacent ones it was a whole mess it’s very difficult you would not expect this

To be this difficult but thankfully I persevered and finished it opening oh my God that’s so good that is so good I made a thing I’m in the nether this is so POG Champ here we are already in the Fortress this usually takes me like hours with the second day almost over I

Hopped in for a final test and also tried out the combat which was an absolute disaster I’m talking your fresh pizza just fell on the floor face down kinda disaster but hey that was a problem for a future toyu and oh boy did Future to you hate fixing that that’s

Where I’ll call it today that is great on day three I wanted to work on the end Dimension no matter what so I immediately started making an end portal frame model and also a version that contains an under eye already in it I mean that’s great I look good I also

Made the under eye item since it didn’t exist yet made the actual space texture for the portal some end stone for the end Island and some Bedrock for the final portal that looks good I then moved on to the two most difficult models of this entire project first I

Had to make the end crystals and for some reason I decided I want to try to animate them but let’s be honest how the hell was I supposed to animate this in 16 by 16 pixels I decided I would simply have a cube that would rotate in a

Single Direction and I wanted to get that done in the least amount of frames possible somehow that also was really difficult but in the end I managed to make a really cool looking rotating Cube and I was pretty proud of myself the end crystal is the absolute coolest thing

We’ve done so far the second really difficult model was the Ender Dragon itself we only need the dragon now let’s start making that guy and the first issue I encountered was that I physically did not have the option to make this thing very large 32 oh we were

Kind of screwed the dragon is gonna be a small boy I started working on a small and cute version of the dragon and made up some dumb lore about it being a baby or something and how maybe a previous person had already taken this whole journey which will explain the ruins and

The bridges and the Nether and uh I don’t I don’t know I I tried my best okay at this point I decided to work on the ruined Village that sat to the west of the mountains I made a map for it placed a few broken down structures with

Some paths and leaves a couple of signs and a bat in one of them I also added some secret stairs in the back of the tavern which would lead us into the next map there’s only nothing in the back don’t even bother checking I will check

Now there it is there it is a stronghold was relatively fast I just placed the stairs going down from the ruins and made a corridor that led to the main portal Place some lava some chains made it so the portal will only be missing one under eye and cold it pretty much

Done now this map also would lead us into another one so I started working on the end map where the final battle take place I made an obsidian platform where the player would start a wooden bridge to connect to a main island placed four obsidian towers around the whole thing

And then threw in the dragon and the Enderman on top of all that look at them look at my little man hello there hmm dragon faces you fight the dragon or pet the dragon with all of these Maps ready to go I started connecting everything with scripts and

Hopped into a game to try everything out these are the ruins amazing we’re gonna add text to these signs should be very easy totally empty house nothing here yep thought you nothing in here I captivated just me and you actually I’m a science it’s just you the entrance to

The stronghold is hidden as well here you can find a bed to uh heal up you interact with it you place a thing here and you go in hell yes I’m winner what’s up little man look at how good that looks bro and if you go in here you can teleported back home

Oops also out of more popular demand I was forced to make a second cat girl I swear this was not on my own position please you have to believe on the fourth day it was time to make things actually work together and also rework the original Village map to make

Everything actually fit in with a whole new world outside I started by adding a currency that was first named the Bitcoin and then the blues which I don’t know it sounded funny if on 100 the balloons in the chest place the chest within the cave containing a few of them

To use in a shop later on I’m winner 100 blue and then I took the original Quest and which you would give some emeralds to one of the villagers and made him give you an apple as a reward that you could then use to recruit the capybara

Into your team filters giving you an apple that’s it hold up hold up hold up hold up I then changed some of the villagers dialogue to give some variety from the old version change the dialogue options for the pond and decided the homeless man that I had placed out of town in the

Last video Jerry had died a horrible painful death so I made a grave for him and placed it where his tent once was what why is there a grave over here r-i-p Jerry Justice for Jerry this is where my dad is no Jerry ignored by many Love by none

Yes my dad oh no immediately after I decided I liked Jerry too much and during the ruined house in the workforest in Hell into his little shop oh it’s Jerry oh I’ve heard of him Jerry would sell you a diamond you could have diamonds he kind sir which combined with another

One you could get from the cave and a stick in the crafting table just near his shop should get you he crafted the diamond AK-47 nice AK-47 right there we go just like in the regular Minecraft I can break so many blocks with this you can break many

Things with that yes to make the AK I downscaled an actual picture of a rifle and from there I made a pixel art version I also made the 3D model and put it into Steve’s hand I then tried to figure out a way to make the portal work

Because not only I couldn’t make the character interact with the portal frame without walking on top of it but I also didn’t really have a decent way of making the portal become active after Steven serves the last Android I tried using the sleeve to make that the

Interactable object but when I made it invisible it wouldn’t work anymore yep so we are alright I understand so I moved on to another idea I made a little spark model which is a staple in RPGs to show where you can interact with things I made it so that the player can

Interact with that to make the portals work then I tested it in game and I decided this was definitely the way to go that does it great it lights it okay the way I made the portal transform was also a bit of a pain I have to make two

Versions of the map itself one with the empty frame and no portal and with the interactable spark and one with the under eye placed and the active portal at this point interacting with spark will simply teleport you to the version of the map with the portal active and it was done yes dude

Yes I then moved on to some more bug fixing and rewriting dialogues this took a while and then went on to adding some lore to the game I made a model for the dragon egg with a huge hole in it so it would look like it recently hatched all

Of this two Justified the embarrassing smallness of my dragon oh is the dragon dead oh it’s cracked damn I’m also cracked and then since the dragon was now canonically a child I started developing an option to spare him instead of fighting him in the game oh damn we did some amazing progress and

Then mentally prepared myself for the following day when I’d have to actually finish up this huge project I started day 5 with a quick play test and then moved straight to my first objective that would make the game almost complete battle maps since the game was Now using a strategic battle

System I had to assign a map for the fights to happen in so I made a copy of the cave map rolled off certain sections of us that I wanted to use as Arenas and whenever 5 would start in the caves the player and the enemies would be

Teleported to the alternate version with the world of sections I did the same thing for the tower map and the few obstacles in the way for the nether fights instead of Walling things off I simply removed the bridges that connect with everything and made Jerry barricade himself inside this shop for safety he

Was honestly too important to lose the end map itself was a little too plain for a fight so I add some hills to make it a bit more interesting to navigate and assign the player’s spawn point around the middle with the maps done I went ahead and tested out the battles

Themselves and with minimal complications they worked pretty well Punk now the battle sort of worked I needed to add a much dreaded feature in the Cat Cafe at the bottom of the map using Steve’s house as a base once again I started placing some chairs and tables

Changed the floor and then placed in the two ungodly creatures that my chat had bullied me into bringing into the Universe I added dialogues to them so that the pink one would give you the gracious gift of a gun A gun oh how cool and the blue one would make both of them

Join the party just like the capybara and need more men for my adventure sounds good we’re in oh cool there you go I tested out the recruiting mechanic tried out fighting with them and I guessed it worked well enough at this point most of everything was pretty much

Done I only had a few bugs to get rid of and the game would be ready I think we’re fine I think everything is working pretty nice but I just had this feeling in my gut like something was missing we need a strong end to the game and for

That to happen we need a real serious map after some time in deep contemplation I figured out what the problem was so I started making an initial shape for a very specific extra map that I wanted to add at the end of the game I don’t know why I decided to

Take on this incredible task at this point in the making of the game but it was already too late my mind was already laser focused on my objective so I started working on new floor tiles some tables a big red button blue floating sci-fi beds a medical scanning device

Some spaceship and hospital lulls and they went and after a couple of hours of work a scaled map was done I then took my old Among Us model and recolored it into five other variations I did a script that would unexpectedly snatch the clueless player from the safe and

Familiar reality of Minecraft and plunge him into a dark abyss of desperation right when they talked it was finally over no dude ah I tested everything that was left to test and finally called it a day at this point everything was completed RPG craft was finally in a great solid state and

It was time to get some victim guests to try the final thing out another day another opportunity to look for adventure all right try and go downstairs fire pickaxe let’s go it looks very good here I am in crossy Road hello Steve I’m the farmer how’s your
