"You guys will not believe what I found."
"[image] This is a hard drive from one of our development PCs. I'm still browsing through everything on it, but for now there's something I want to show you"
"He [0] wanted to pitch the changes to them [Mojang], so he made us create a preview version, and that's what I found the source code of. Best part? It has no personal details and is not linked to anyone, which means we can post it for everyone to download and try."
"The file modified date is showing up as 2021 because I had to recompile the entire thing from scratch"
"Now, don't expect much. This isn't a proper jar like the one ORBL found, and because this is a preview, it only has ~25% of the features that were in the final build."
"As for this video, I think it's a screen recording of one of us practicing for the "live presentation". I don't remember much more, sorry."
"We normally had to use a modified launcher, but it seems to run fine under modern MultiMC. To run it, you'll need to make a new instance of any alpha version, then in its configuration click "Replace Minecraft.jar" and select this one."

11/06/2023 @mopishlynx2323: Its like an alternate reality version, like someone stepped on a butterfly in 1998 and cause Minecraft's planks to look funky
11/06/2021 @EbolaGranola: You may think there are no stairs in this video, but the description shows a series of steps to properly run the jar. What do you call a series of steps? Heh... I'll let you figure out the rest...
Crazy effort as always, guys
11/06/2021 @gel-pen-gel-drinker: I simply applaud your dedication to the art of staircases
11/06/2021 @tauon_: im subscribing
11/06/2022 @SuperstitionCaard: Its...
A ladder!
They have steps don't they?
11/06/2022 @ClonedGamer001: @SuperstitionCaard I believe on a ladder their called "rungs" but you can have a step-ladder, so this still checks out
11/06/2022 @the2401: genius
11/06/2022 @popcat7287: Why are you so dedicated to stairs
11/06/2022 @the2401: @popcat7287 it's the same person in every comment. it's basically their running joke
11/06/2023 @ClonedGamer001: @SupersGoneHyper I have to assume this is a really obtuse way of pointing out a year after the fact that I mistakenly used "their" instead "they're." I'm going to leave it just to annoy you ;)
12/06/2023 @mettaton-x: @ClonedGamer001 this is the kind of energy I need in my life
11/06/2022 @LikaLaruku: Imagine playing when zombies were first introduced & hearing that for the first time ever.
11/06/2022 @maxinehowland8246: I actually like the ice texture in this more than the original
11/06/2022 @slamduncan6685: Me too
11/06/2022 @milessoup9246: Although this is fake, I actually kind of want these new decor blocks in game.
11/06/2022 @gel-pen-gel-drinker: I mean, these versions are playable
11/06/2022 @CakeZombieOnTop: @gel-pen-gel-drinker how do I run?
11/06/2022 @zai-tm: @CakeZombieOnTop it says it in the description
11/06/2022 @LikaLaruku: @gel-pen-gel-drinker Very cool. thanks.
11/06/2022 @isucks891: @Miles Campbell you can download this version its not fake check the description of the video
11/06/2023 @tygical: not fake
11/06/2021 @stativolt: we got an actual jar holy shit

11/06/2023 @sponge5: Amogus
11/06/2022 @therealtime34: I wanna see someone speedrun this version lmao
11/06/2022 @v1be2007: there was no ender dragon in the game back then
11/06/2022 @glow5644: @v1be2007 Maybe they could speedrun to a different objective? 🤔
11/06/2022 @colorblindrobloxalt7724: @glow5644 giant boss
11/06/2022 @therealtime34: @v1be2007 there are also different categories other than beating the dragon
11/06/2021 @gel-pen-gel-drinker: Holy hell a playable jar? And new recipes to boot?
11/06/2022 @misery1842: download the jar, make a multimc alpha 1.0.16 instance, edit instance, add to minecraft jar (or replace minecraft jar), select the jar you downloaded, launch instance
11/06/2022 @mcpiranha2397: @misery1842 Yooo thanks! driving me crazy trying to figure it out. Weird question though, my character is walking in circles when I try to play. Do you get this too or is my version cooked?
11/06/2022 @lcj3_: @mcpiranha2397 legends says that he's never got his answer...
11/06/2022 @DAVIDCRAFT60: @lcj3_ xD
11/06/2023 @juiceoverflow: @misery1842 beast

11/06/2023 @misery1842: @lagaga425 iunno
11/06/2022 @Minty_Meeo: What kind of freak crafts a second wooden pickaxe instead of a stone one?
11/06/2023 @ShockAbe: 9:45 That creeper genuinely scared me.
11/06/2023 @tygical: that's how creepers were back in old versions of minecraft
11/06/2023 @adielvega998: The creeper has no eyeholes for some reason
11/06/2023 @balledoutfist: that creeper's weak asf it took 2 hearts
11/06/2022 @acidkyledaLSDj: There is always someone building you can always hear it or someyhing being placed
11/06/2022 @surnachi: has anyone ever told you that your really smart
11/06/2022 @Lepersama: That's just the footsteps of the animals. The player is surrounded by them for most of the video.
11/06/2023 @naturequeen2597: @surnachi bit riude noe innit
12/06/2023 @Radibu: @naturequeen2597 Bit Odd
01/06/2024 @MiguellyyFlips: my friend played the preview.
2 weird things happened:
1 - he was walking normally, but then his player got invisible and he couldn't walk, also, after that, he left the map, but when he tried to play again, the map didn't existed anymore, it got deleted for some reason
2 - in the second map, the sky turned purple out of nowhere, weird
he was sharing screen to me and recording, he's going to post the video soon
01/06/2024 @lucienelu8098: ALA EAI MIGUEL
01/06/2024 @lucienelu8098: ACHEI TEU COMENTARIO INVESTIGANDO OS VIDEO FKNEOWMSKFNF
01/06/2024 @lucienelu8098: No momento q tô mandando essas msg eu tô na casa da minha prima lel
01/06/2024 @lucienelu8098: Oh and im his friend, just in another account, im going to look for more strange things in that version later
01/06/2024 @MiguellyyFlips: @lucienelu8098 HELL NAH
03/06/2024 @moltenation2280: interesting
11/06/2022 @AG06_GabryGunner: i did not expect this... a minecraft alpha ARG?. im dont play minecraft as often(i only play console edition on my xbox one instead of this pc because my pc is kinda shitty especially the driver has no update that i cant play java minecraft) this is pretty good tough... keep it up!...
11/06/2022 @memesarekeem: bro's making a new block
05/06/2024 @Yuri_GrieferGames: for everyone who wants to try the jar in the description, I didn't have any problems with it, and Avira and windows defender said it's safe. Ariva only alarmed me about the website, mediafires ads often are malware, so make sure to only click download once and DON'T click the screen afterwards. I'll edit this comment if anything bad happens after playing the version :)
06/06/2024 @legacywolf443: Thank you for your help!
11/06/2023 @greenknight9000: 9:45
That creeper actually scared the shit out of me, oh my God--
11/06/2022 @thechugg4372: Ok the creeper got me good.
11/06/2022 @LLLexen: bro on god some day ima speedrun this shit, im pretty sure the goal in alpha is to find diamonds bro
11/06/2022 @Incognito-rb4tz: is it possible to port a modding api (like hmod or bukkit or even forge) to this version? would be cool
11/06/2022 @slamduncan6685: I don’t know this is already “modding” because people used to add mods to Minecraft jars to change the base game, maybe you could add other jar mods from the time? It might not be compatible
11/06/2023 @WolfBetter: 9:48 fuck the creeper it gave me an heart attack
11/06/2022 @zaviear: Nobody notice that the creeper has no eyes?
09/06/2024 @Sprigatitto740: The trees are balding plz fix
11/06/2023 @steamaccount-ki5mv: hol up let him cook
05/06/2024 @TinaLuvzCats: Why are the cows mooing backwards

11/06/2023 @And2546: @thelattins7909 wtf, that was 10 months ago, do you think I remember?
03/06/2024 @Marshall_me: 4:52 is that a entity behind the tree jumping?
11/06/2021 @tauon_: lets goooo jarfile
11/06/2022 @lactoselucifer: 11:05 so bad omegalul
11/06/2023 @reeceshommer9411: I looked through the whole file and realized by the wooden door there’s a odd coloring reply is the wooden color it’s purple and what was the door doing They are right by a purple texture color we could the door be purple
12/06/2023 @mettaton-x: what
11/06/2022 @glow5644: Y'all sure that it's not a virus or anything? I'm genuinely scared to press it. :')
11/06/2022 @jimmynutrition7858: Smart to be cautious.. I'm the same way.. it's probably safe but who knows maybe this is a long way of getting people to download key loggers and steal our Minecraft logins 😂
11/06/2022 @staszek461: @jimmynutrition7858 laughs in tlauncher
11/06/2022 @jimmynutrition7858: @staszek461 tlauncher is crap
11/06/2022 @tobbeborislyba: @jimmynutrition7858 naw not really
11/06/2022 @jimmynutrition7858: @tobbeborislyba curseforge is king
11/06/2023 @thelattins7909: dose the jar wrok
11/06/2022 @LLLexen: what was the final release?...
11/06/2022 @_LunaticMoon: Is the sheep being sheared with an axe normal?
11/06/2022 @Minty_Meeo: It used to be punching sheep to shear them. An axe works, too.
11/06/2023 @tygical: @Minty_Meeo can confirm you can use any item
11/06/2022 @imgay852: thanks for the download link
11/06/2022 @retrograde98xp7: that is a suspiciously fat jar file. Anyone catch any malware from it?
11/06/2022 @marcelwisniewski3292: no. it's running just fine!
11/06/2022 @marcelwisniewski3292: and don't forget that there is a wholeass game in that .jar
11/06/2022 @marcelwisniewski3292: 70% of the whole .jar file is music (you can open the jar using winrar / 7zip and convert the .ogg files to .mp3 files online
