One thing I find satisfying is the soundscape of Trash Goblin. For example, when you hit the ice it causes a domino effect and the sounds really tickle my brain. The game is very enjoyable and if you want a no pressure game where you find trinkets for people, check it out!

Another throwback! This was on the Diamond Society. I was building underground and wanted to have a cistern in my build. I was so happy at the time with how the arches turned out. I'm thinking of doing something similar in one of my current projects. Not sure which though.

One of my current projects is working on a farming area on GlowCraft. I've been having a lot of fun with it as it's been a while since I did an underground civilization. This is the little area where I'm doing small farming like berries. I have larger areas for the main crops.

Went through old pics and found this. It's from Otium circa 2019. There's a world of difference between then and now in terms of build skills.
I think it's really good to do this regardless of what you do, so you can see how far you've come, especially when you aren't feeling great about yourself.

I don't know where I saw this before, but using the iron bars as handles for glass doors definitely adds more interest than just having glass all the way through.

Minecraft has a lot of interesting mobs, to include ones that were only introduced in its other games. One mob I really wish was in vanilla is the moobloom. For some reason, it just brings me so much joy.
