Announcing Minecraft Duskbringer

 Hello. C J here. We’re going on another Minecraft adventure today. Here we have a shot of a street in my practice map for making Duskbringer. If you want to know more about Duskbringer look under the Astral Video Games label here and read the two posts from yesterday. They’re mostly samples of the game’s script. Here is the nice little town of Cruelty, situated in the Plains of Deceit in the region of my setting’s Hell known as the Domain of Makelith.



That orange wood above the door indicates the building’s use. It’s a cafe. Here’s the inside.




Those lights? They’re people, coated in brass and made into furniture. The Fallen who rule Hell aren’t just going to go to IKEA and pick up a couple of Swedish made furniture kits. No! The Fallen are really good at interior design so they make their own furniture.




As you can see the tables are also made out of the wailing souls of the damned. Isn’t it festive?




And here’s the cafe, where you can exchange the local currency Hell has for food and beverages. The currency is named Agony and is made by torturing the damned. It’s a nice place to live, isn’t it?

Also when I have enough of this map done in like a year I’ll look into putting it on the official Minecraft Marketplace for sale. They sell maps and this one will be huge by the time I’m done with it. I might even switch the game mode to Survival, make the blocks unbreakable by monsters and add in some adventure or JRPG elements.

Chinese Food That is Very Saucy

Hello. C J here. I read a lot of cookbooks. This is done mostly for fun. I’m currently reading a short but really interesting book about traditional Chinese cooking. The book was written by an Indian author who has clearly researched Chinese food very well but some of the translations of recipes or concepts get a bit strange. I’m currently done the soups and starters section and am onto the section labelled ‘food that is saucy.’ Cool? Is it also savvy? There’s a surprisingly large amount of ketchup in the recipes. No I don’t think I want a recipe for hot and sour soup that is thickened ketchup water with vinegar and a bit of cabbage. No I also don’t want to take a slice of white wonderbread, roll it into a tube, stuff it with canned corn, deep fry it and then top it with sesame seeds. What in God’s name do they eat in China? And why is it specifically an image of white wonderbread? China? Are you okay? I managed to take out the vinegar, water and corn starch that makes up most of the h...

Four New Recipes for January

 Hello. C J here. I've got four new recipes for everyone here. We have everything from Chinese chicken to homemade hot apple cider. Enjoy. The Emperor’s Potatoes Here we have the first food item I ever finished designing for Food of the World – Carthia. I tried three combinations of traditional Asian ingredients and pasta under the assumption that I was doing Italian-Chinese food for the book. I could not for the life of me get any of them to be exciting. They were fine. I don’t eat fine. I got bored of the pasta thing and then thought to myself, ‘what happens if I swap the pasta for another starch? What about a potato?’ It worked. Really well. It worked so well I named them The Emperor’s Potatoes. They’re mashed potatoes and I left the skins on because I like vitamins and then that got me thinking about the traditional medicinal food of Ancient China, ginger. Could I put ginger in a potato dish and have it work? Yes. I can. That surprised me. Be warned, these are almost dangerousl...

Let's All Be Friends, No Really - Part Two

 Hello. C J here. I’ve updated my plans to make a Discord server for everyone here and on Facebook. Making a Discord server to my knowledge costs money. However, making a Facebook group does not. I’ve made a few of those over the years as well for various reasons. I’m going to look into this soon and then add the links here and in the menus here as well. I’m certain a Facebook group is what we need. I’m planning a number of chats within the group. So far my current plans are as follows. Art and Artwork Health and Wellness Food and Baking Magic and Spirituality Writing and Software NSFW I’m planning a private group but if I can get it open entry without a form or sign up page or anything. As for rules I’m going to reuse some from past of these I’ve done. Everyone is Welcome Be Polite Advertising is Allowed Follow the Content Ratings The Facebook group will take some planning but not any actual effort to build. It’s that simple. Thanks. C J Mcpherson
