1.8 Updates: Taller Worlds, Delicious Foods

Jeb posted another teaser image, this one of a cooked chicken. While nothing was specified about it, there also appears to be a new mystery bar beneath the health track - what could it be?

Additionally - Notch appears to have been experimenting with map-height changes. He went on to say that while nothing definitive is planned, they are looking into possible map height restrictions in the future.

Finally - a new launcher is being tested! You can help test it here. Bear in mind, it is only launching Minecraft for the moment, but the stress-testing of the launcher will provide helpful data for Mojang, to further improve it!

Stay tuned for further updates as they develop.

I honestly think notch is making this like little leak by little leak. I think he is trying to make it so we get distracted from a very big part of the update... who agrees? I DO! ME TOO! Do you?

Increasing the height of the map is quite possibly the smartest thing I've ever heard. DO IT!

so you can launch the game without downloading a exe or jar and it is not loaded in the internet browser, therefore removing alooot of lag!

About the height limit:

The level height in Minecraft now depends on a single field in the Level class, for easier modding. The default will remain 128, though.

Could this mean that there might be an option to set your world height when you make a new world?

Sorry for the bit of a bump, but I firmly believe pork sandwiches should be implemented, like so:

Bread
Cooked Pork
Bread

Also, I'm glad chickens won't be quite as useless.
