You know, one of the first things that popped into my mind when playing Minecraft was "Holy crap what is that it just exploded in my face that was scary", but one of the second things that popped into my mind was "I haven't really done this much First Person Platforming since Mirror's Edge." And then I discovered the accessibility of modifying the game. This is the product of my discovery so far.

Mirror's Edge had a very unique art style, with a very minimalistic color palette. For those who hadn't played this fantastic first person parkour adventure, the visuals marked important objects in the scenery in a very strong red color which stood out from the otherwise very white urban environments. That's what I tried to replicate more or less with the strong red colors contrasted with bleak smooth stone colors. While Minecraft lacks the speed/momentum of Mirror's Edge, it definitely has a lot of platforming, and if you add in Mirror's Edge's art style with Minecraft's platforming, what could possibly go wrong?

You can also feel free to make improvements and such, especially since I'm artistically inept.

To Do List:
-Change pain voice clips so that Faith doesn't sound manly
-Change in-game music to something from Mirror's Edge
-Learn to draw better sprites
-Change the remaining common blocks seen (Workbench etc.)
-Change UI to be more sleek like Mirror's Edge
-Create a map made just for the mod
-Stop bumping your own thread

EDIT: Screenshots up showing what's changed so far
EDIT: v0.2 uploaded!
EDIT: Added "To Do List"
EDIT: v0.3 uploaded! Updated "To Do List"
EDIT: v0.4 uploaded! Updated "To Do List"
EDIT: Added my first attempt at mapping for MCEdit, be warned that it's very WIP and is unfinished

The screenshots showing off the mod, as promised, also disguised as a pathetic bump to my own topic:

Smooth dirt texture (also, Faith's hand)


Redstone is now just a smooth red line, also the red pipe ladders in the background (still Faith's hand)


The red door and a block of Hellstone that is entirely red

Awesome job, i love the graphics from mirrors edge, so this might be one of the packs i'll be using. Good luck!

Inventory screen, note the Faith skin and the removed armor visuals even though my diamond armor is equipped. Also note the red items at the bottom right corner. Respectively from the corner is Redstone, Minecart Track, Hellstone and Redstone Torch. Ignore my newly made diamond tools and lack of any leggings

My first attempt to recreate the Runner Bags from Mirror's Edge. The chests are now replaced with a Yellow/Black/Grey color scheme. It looks pretty meh, hopefully I can do better than this.



Please note this is not in the version of the texture pack that I uploaded. When I have enough improvements and changes, I'll be sure to reupload the improved one.

UPDATE: Everything and slightly more shown in the above posts is now available in v0.2 of my WIP mod! Check out all the changes now!

UPDATE: Added To Do List so you can see what's upcoming and what you can expect from the mod at a later point in time

Nice!

I haven't played the game, but from the looks of it, it's very similar

Wow, this is nice and simple.

UPDATE: A lot more changes made, check out the changes and v0.3 now!

Love the game and I'm Liking the look of this mod, gonna try it out now~

[Edit] Its totally awesome, Looking forward to the finished version. Hopefully you can figure out something cool for light stone~ :3

UPDATE: Some new updates, including simplifying the more commonly seen blocks, and adding a SWAT cop skin for the Skeletons, which go great with the gun! :biggrin.gif:

DOWNLOAD v0.4 NOW!

In-game shot of the SWAT skeleton, without the gun (huge thanks to Athauxan from the forums)

I'm trying to, but I fail at MCEdit, as translation from the mind to the rather clunky application is a bit off.

Underground Map is available for download!

This is my first attempt at mapping with MCEdit, and most of the details were actually made in-game since MCEdit really isn't precise sometimes. Note that's it's extremely work in progress and whipped up in a couple of hours. It showcases an underground tunnel much like in Mirror's Edge, but it's extremely short and is meant to show off what the Skeletons look like with weaponry and to show what a map could look like.

Features:
-Underground tunnel (if you let your creativity sink in, you can see it's remotely related to a Mirror's Edge map)
-Quite possibly 4 seconds of gameplay
-Two "hidden" rooms in the tunnel with Runner Bags with items
-SWAT team skeletons
-A scripted series of explosions
-A bunch of signs that treat you like someone who has no idea what's going on and holds your hand like an unneeded tutorial
-A ladder going to the surface, concluding the demonstration
-If you squint really hard, it looks sort of like Mirror's Edge (I kid, I kid)

:biggrin.gif: the threads alive! ddownloading the map now. hope its good!
heres a

Edit: map was very small. and a lot of problems occured. such as blowing the bottom of the map open. make bottom bedrock to stop that. but otherwise. if u make large maps like that it will be fantastic. and if u make the entire city. it will be beyond epic. JESUS! :biggrin.gif:

Edit2: it was a very small map and it took a long time for me to load it. so idk. fix it sumhow
