It Was Tall

Something tall stands in the distance and stares. Walk closer and it runs. Hide and it sinks into the ground... In the mines it digs through the rock to reach you. Don't hide. Just run.

What's new

It Was Tall 0.4.9 (beta)

The Below

  • There is something under the bedrock. Endless dark caves between a bedrock floor and a bedrock ceiling: big hollow chambers and winding tunnels of two new stones, pale Forgotten Stone and dark layered Oldrock (both can be mined and built with), black water, a black fog after a few dozen blocks.
  • The way in: fall into the void under the Overworld (you no longer die there - you land in the caves), or break through Cracked Bedrock. From stage 2 it now and then appears in the floor of the deepest mines, with digging heard from under it. An iron pickaxe breaks it, slowly.
  • Down there: dripping, falling stones, footsteps that are not yours, breathing right behind you, digging far away. Bones, skulls, cobwebs, burnt-out candles and the cold camps of those who came before (with a chest). And It, standing at the far end of a cave, watching.
  • The way out: live until dawn, or die. Either way you wake up in your bed, and you keep everything you carried.
  • Two new advancements: Under Everything and Dawn Down There.
  • Config: below, belowMinStage, crackedBedrockMinutes. Commands: /itwastall event below and /itwastall event crackedbedrock; both are also in the god panel.

Advancements

  • Every advancement now has its own hand-drawn pixel icon from the new icon pack.
  • Advancement names and descriptions are shown in English in every language.

The flashlight

  • Everyone now carries a flashlight. Click the mouse wheel (middle button) to switch it on or off. In creative the middle button stays "pick block", so there is also a "Flashlight" key in Controls (unbound by default).
  • It lights up the spot you are looking at, brighter the closer it is, up to 28 blocks away. It is real light, so other players see your beam too.
  • When It is near, the flashlight flickers.
  • A small flashlight icon above the walkie-talkie slot shows while it is on.

For testing

  • /itwastall debug mimicvoicenow [player] makes It play the newest recorded voice right now, behind the player, even with itMimicsVoices off. Record one first with /itwastall debug recordvoice.
