I made a little puzzle map that uses some of the new commands in 1.7.
The goal of the map is to make your way to the center of the puzzle cube by completing different puzzles.
The difficulty increases as you progress further into the cube, starting out quite easy and ending up a bit challenging. There is also a bonus area with challenge versions of all the puzzles.
It should be multiplayer compatible up to any number of people. In fact, some puzzles are much easier on multiplayer.
It also comes with a resource pack, which is mandatory (so things make sense =) ).
Screenshots:

The Bonus area.
Rules:
The rules are in the book in the double chest right near the starting place, but I'll reiterate them here:
- Don't break/place blocks
- Don't craft
- Keep your difficulty on Easy
- Stay in Survival or Adventure mode (doesn't matter which)
- Use the included Puzzle Cube Resource Pack
a. "The Puzzle Cube - v.<version number>" in the folder "saves".
b. "Puzzle Cube Resource Pack" in the folder "resourcepacks".
4. Start Minecraft.
5. Go to the resource pack selection menu (in Options) and add the Puzzle Cube Resource Pack to the top of the list.
6. Open the world titled "The Puzzle Cube"
7. Get Puzzled!

Most of the textures are from Vattic's Faithful Resource Pack. If you don't know about it, you should go check it out: http://www.minecraft...-pufferfish-17/.
All the other custom textures/sounds created by Tmtravlr.
The idea for the look/feel of the puzzle cube inspired by Super Mario Galaxy.
Well, I hope you enjoy this puzzle map! =) Let me know what you think of it.
If you do find any problems/issues, tell me and I'll try to fix them.
Really great map and loved the fact that there was no parkour LMAO. If you need another series for the vidoes here is my complete playlist : http://www.youtube.c...v6d4ZPxwsgyZ6ae
Sweet! =) Looks good.
However, I can't seem to load the 7th video. It gives me a black screen and says "An error occurred. Please try again later" even if I reload the page.
Frustrating, but very clever. I beat the original puzzles eventually, but the hard mode (much like the yogscast) was just cheat, cheat, cheat. I think the only one I got completely legitimately was the minecart puzzle v2.
Still, this was a lot of fun. You have a knack for unique puzzles. If I had the ability to go into creative mode, I'd dissect the place and try to figure out how you did the sand puzzle.

Yeah, the hard mode is meant to be very hard for those (like me =P) who love a crazy challenge.
That sand puzzle took a while... Yeah, I don't know if you can go into creative mode except maybe by using MCEdit to delete the command block that checks for players in creative mode. If you're really curious I can tell you how I did it. It's not meant to be hidden.
Um, I've encountered a problem with my friend playing the map. Don't read if you don't want a spoiler.
The zombie imps keeps dissapearing, and I can't complete the map. The closest I got was when the yellow block went down, :/
Check that you're not in peaceful mode. There are command blocks that set it to easy mode (when they are spawned), but if you have peaceful mode selected in the Options screen, opening the menu will reset the game back to peaceful.

Er, I think it's because we kept going away, and it wasn't in Peaceful. But, we got past that puzzle, and we now we're stuck at the turn all the clay to white puzzle.

You are a genius!
Hmm, strange. I set them not to despawn if you go away.
Oh, one possibility is if they are standing on top of a wool block that's down, and it's raised, they will suffocate and die.
Me and my partner are stuck on that level where you have to change the green coloured clay to white..
but we have one slight problem
the last puzzle... ONE TILE WILL NOT CHANGE!! its broken... we can stand on it, or stand around it and it still stays green. we aren't even standing on 2 tiles... can just stand on the one and it still doesn't change from green to white...
how do we fix this??
many thanks
Oh dear, that's not good.
Exactly which block on which clay puzzle isn't changing? Have you done anything unusual? Was it working at one point and then stopped?
What version of Minecraft are you using? Are you playing with any mods or plugins that might be doing anything?
Sweet! =) Looks good. However, I can't seem to load the 7th video. It gives me a black screen and says "An error occurred. Please try again later" even if I reload the page.
Ah, now it's working weeks later. =) Must have just been a random Youtube error.
Erm, it was the fourth clay puzzle you come to, and its one of the corner blocks, however my partner fixed it by deleting the map, re-installing it and going back to it and it works fine. hopefully fingers crossed it wont break again.... if it does, i'll let you know, and kill my partner for breaking aha xD xxx
Ah, so maybe something corrupted during the original download. Hopefully everything goes well. =)
im guessing it must have been.. played it last night and all went well. though stuck on the level after getting the white trophy. it amazingly done though... I have to ask, how long did it take you to make it?? xxx
Great to hear. =)
I don't really remember. I'd say it took about a month or so, working off and on.
how do you download the texture packwhere is the texture download
For sure! =)
The resource pack is included in the zipped download file (see the "Download and Instructions" section).

One day I will figure out a good signature
It's just a texture (the glowstone texture, tinted blue). If you turn off the resource pack you'll see that they're actually jack'o'lanterns.
