* Will be dark to you under normal circumstances. (this does not mean you will not be able to see it)
* Normal light will also give off infrared.
the base of my idea will just be infrared light, I have also worked out a few more things less impotent and can be changed to suit the game better.
[Diamond Spectacles] Lets you see in infrared, crafting might go something like this
[Neon Blocks] look just like normal blocks but with spectacles they glow different colors. (may spawn normally when the world is made but will be hard to find without the spectacles)
[something that gives off infrared light maybe a redstone torch] Have not thought of a name yet but I guess redstone torches would work, problem is they give off normal light, so would need to change them. Might just be easier to make a new item.
[infrared mobs] this idea I'm not total sure about, making mobs that you need to have spectacles to see, maybe make creepers glow infrared so they will be easier to spot. Again use this idea however you think would work best.
I have already sent off some twitter messages don't think notch saw them, I will post them here if anyone wants to give it another shot.
@notch So any chance you could put in infrared light that keeps mobs from spawning but is still dark? maybe something to see it with to?
@notch and how about also neon blocks that look normal but glow infrared? I really think that would be something amazing!
yes it does! thank you for making it clear for everyone.
It makes your idea completely invalid. EVERYTHING gives it off at ALL TIMES. So, monsters would NEVER spawn.
I think you misunderstand what I was trying to say, making Infrared light would not stop monsters from spawning in say moonlight sines that would still be to dark in both normal light and Infrared, I was saying that you could make rooms with a infrared light source inside that looks dark but will not let monsters spawn.
Use half block or glass for your floor... read more.
End of thread.
So what no one wants neon blocks that glow in pretty colour's? Or mobs that you can only see with proper eye ware, I'm not saying my idea is perfect but at least it is original. If anyone would like and expand on it be my guest.

to be able to make dark rooms that you will not get your face ripped off in and to put in new glowing blocks to build with.
Dark = mobs. Sorry for your luck.
Glowing blocks = glowstone.
I'm happy you are happy with the game as it is, myself I would like more then what is already provided.
yes it does! thank you for making it clear for everyone.
What is so bad about waffles?
