Hello everyone, I have started making this new map: "Logic Lands"
Here's the storyline:You wake up in the middle of the night very tired and needing rest. You sleep, and wake up in the morning. You check your mail and notice you have a slip of paper that said that you won a competition for a million dollars. You don't remember entering a competition but it was worth a shot. Later that day you go to the place it says to redeem it, the building looks odd. You think "is this really the place?" You go inside and soon find it was a trick to get you to go there. You are hit in the head and fall unconscious.....
And here is what the map will (hopefully) have:
A great storyline
Puzzles, Parkour and Fighting
Custom lore and symbols
Special effects
Custom narrating and music. If I can get the stupid thing to work.
A whole lotta' command blocks
Tellraw chat interaction
Challenging Puzzles (I hope)
Easter Eggs
??? (not gonna spoil it)
And, a Mad Scientist?!? (everybody's gotta have one...)
Does this story have a theme? In writing, good stories don't just come chapter by chapter. You have to start with something that you want the person to take away. The same thing goes for games. Perhaps the map is about the massive amounts of scams and danger of the internet, and you translate that into a playable minecraft map. Or maybe it's about greed. I find that greed is an easy yet effective theme to use in a story.
Btw I like the name "Logic Lands". Makes you more inclined to think about what is going to happen, and how everything ties into the map.

What do you mean by a "theme"? I don't understand. Look, in the past few days I've been placing hundreds of command blocks. Well, not the weekend, I had to go somewhere.
What happens in the dream:
First, you are in a loading screen, then the door opens. A voice says to you: "Hello, Player." then "Please go through the hallway marked rules."
You go through that hallway that appears. Now you are in a room with a bunch of signs. you read them. The bottom ones say that you have to answer the question: "What is rule 4?" "You will die if you get this wrong." there are 2 buttons on either side of the room. one has the right answer, and one does not. but no matter what you click, you will still fall in a pit to the void. It shows you the credits, then after you die, you respawn in your home. There, is that enough?
1,000,000$ Contest... Hmm, I wouldn't fall for it. Not very good logic from a map called logic lands
Have a great day and good luck on the map ~ MCGeeneus
P.S. I suffer from an unusual condition where my tone is insulting even when I am trying to be caring and supporting. Anywho... Make the map something that is actually within the grasp of possible creation.

Yeah... I could not think of anything else. I am exaustedly working on the resource pack, and the map. That was just like an early alpha version. It may be changed later. I can change it easily. just wait. And, there will be tons of logic. LOT'S OF IT. I don't want to spoil anything.
BTW, there will be TONS of chapters, hopefully someday 50. Ikr! This is gonna be huge
Also, take a good look at the redstone. Yeah. That took me a while.
Haha, I hope you are not anything like me... Come up with a great idea for a map, start it, and never finish. I am extremely terrible with that problem, especially since I am into working with redstone and command blocks (As you can tell by my pic). What I do is build the contraption/map in my head, and once I have it in there, I do not bother actually putting it into being, as I become determined to start another project.
Anyways, GL and if you need any help or ideas, lemme know. ~MCGeeneus
P.S. I may sound lazy, but it is different then that. It is more like having a full head and not enough time in the world to build it all
P.P.S. I don't usually write P.S.'s, but it just seems to fit well with this post.
P.P.P.S. I know it seemed weird to say I don't use P.S.'s in a P.S. message, but it is true, so trust me.
