What's orange and white and sleeps all day? Jens, but Mojang still managed to finish another Java Snapshot this week.

This week's snapshot is a small one, but it brings a fancy new splash screen! Start up the snapshot and you'll find out right away.

Who adds Stonecutter functionality to Minecraft? Mojang do! Mojang do! Who fixes Java bugs day-in day-out? Mojang do! Mojang do!

Can you think of anything in this world that's as exciting as the existence of compost? No. You can't. Which is why Mojang have included it in this week's snapshot.

Finally, it's time for the first snapshot of the year! Mojang have managed to cram smokingly hot Campfires, Cartography Table functionality and Lectern functionality into this snapshot.

It's that time of year again... You know the one, it happens every year in December and brings a tear to everybody's eye... That's right, it's the last major snapshot of the year!

Another week, another snapshot! What better way to get into a festive mood than hanging out in a fancy new village in a snowy biome?

Mojang have been doing a great job with the 'Pillage' part of the Village and Pillage update for a while now, which means it's time for the 'Village' part. So today the first village of the Village and Pillage update gets a makeover!

Todays snapshot is nice and peaceful. Mojang have gone and fixed some bugs, cleaned up so much code, nothing can go wr███████████████ ...

The nights are getting so long in Stockholm that Mojang have all long forgotten what the sun looks like. It's square, right? Anyway, at least navigating Minecraft at night should be easier now they've added lanterns!
