So I'm back. And not sure where to take the blog now. I did Portazo Island and got some positive results, and some people seemed to enjoy Eldaria as well. I've also posted builds here and y'all seemed to that was pretty jazzy as well, so I suppose the most the logical thing would be to ask you what to do next! Maybe an adventure map? Sky Block? Some weird obscure poorly written adventure map?

Well. I light of Diablo 3 I have not been playing much Minecraft. And when I remember that this blog was still a thing, I figured I out to do more Minecraft related stuff again. But Eldaria is gone. I don't even know how but yeah... On a brighter note I've got a new idea... Well a few. First, I've begun modding, so if you still for some reason check here, keep an eye out, because I may

So friends! I'm terribly sorry I've not be posting as of late. Been doing this weird job hunting thing (still no luck) and been playing around with the new snapshots (which will make some upcoming entries pretty awesome!) but I've got something for y'all to see. You see, BusinessFish tends to get lonely in that crazy world of blocks, so from time to time (Quite often

I stepped into the blacksmith's house with the man in the white apron. The blacksmith and other man spoke to each other and after a moment the blacksmith asked me to hand him my gear. I took off the iron and handed him my sword and tools. Whilst he worked on them he began to talk to me. "You know? I've been doing some research lately. It would seem that long ago, out people used to

It looked like a small village. I couldn't see anybody out and about, but I figured there might be someplace safe to wait out the night there. I ran through the villager looking for a open door or place I might hide. As I ran past one house I heard the door open and a few sets of hands grabbed me and pulled me inside. I looked to see three men staring at me. "Are you alright?" the one

I was still a little unsettled by the fact that somehow an enderman had not only gotten into my shelter, but also into my dreams. As a result I decided it was time to make a more secure base. I found a nearby mountain and begun to dig up into it. After some work I had hollowed out a large potion of the mountain. After which I put in some flooring and chests along with a few bits of furniture

I stepped into the cave. Almost instantly it opened up into a a room with a handful of smaller passages to follow. Only one path was already lit, so I took that as a sign and started to follow it. After a while I saw the light was coming from a pool of lava. I turned around and followed another path. That one turned out to be a dead end but I found some iron. With the amount of ores in my pack

All of these underwater caves were beginning to get annoying. It seemed as if something didn't want me to find the portal to the enderdragon's dimension. After a second my eyes adjusted to the light and I could see plenty of iron in the cave. Perhaps this was a good thing. As I was mining I noticed lots of little small passages. One passage in particular seemed like it shadows

After much thought. One thing stuck out at me about which way I should go. Deserts have almost no water. That alone was enough to send this fish down the rivers. I put together a small boat and set sail. People have always asked why me, being a fish, would use a boat. Firstly, swimming is far more tiring. Secondly, a wet suit, isn't good for business. I sailed down the river for a little and

Miles of oceans and endless days on sea couldn't erase the name of my destination from my mind. Eldaria. After some time relaxing on Portazo Island, one of the people pulled me aside.  The day wasn't special in any way. Just some rain and clouds. He led me through a part of the jungle I had replanted. At first I thought he was going to have me follow him into the nether. But he stopped just

Hey guys! I'm ready to begin my new map! I recently finished Portazo Island, which was loads of fun! You can go back and read up on all that. I learned a lot from that trial run and hopefully this one will be even more exciting. In case you don't know, my next adventure will be in a map by Aurelien_Sama from planetminecraft.com. So! Let's get down to business with the fishes. From what I gather

Well! Portazo Island is finally finished. I got to say, this map was fun at times and a chore at others. It was made by cecilhowe of the Curse forums and I have to give him a hand for a job well done. The map was very simple and had little to no limitations. He set out some clear goals and then sent you on your way. I would definitely recommend it to somebody who wants to do something a

Hello internet! It is over a warm bowl of banana and blueberry oatmeal that I am proud to announce I have finished this huge mega build I've been working on. Mind you. This is ALL legit. And ALL in survival mode. And I kind of secretly hate Minecraft now because of how much of my life I lost to this project. But here it is..... The Golden Fish Casino! Tada! Now from more pictures of the finished

Oh yes... This was a bit of a pain, but a fun and cool project for me. It involved redstone and water. And if you know anything about redstone and water, you know they don't like each other. But here are some pictures... The pier! The inside of the small fishing hut. Dry docks! Yes they work... See? It works! Usually after bringing the boat back into the dock, when you open

This one isn't so much of a entry as it is an update. I am still working on the island! I've just had a really big project going on! But here are some pictures from what's been happening lately...    This is the very first (of many) blocks I've placed for my super construction on the island. I can't reveal what it is... Sorry guys!   More pigs trapped in bushes!!! :(

And then some furniture.... And now! Oh ho ho ho.... Now... Now we have a grotto cafe! Boo yah! The place is pretty cozy. Here are some pics! That's the outside and front of the cafe... These are

Hey y'all! I hope you've been enjoying reading. I've started to make some amazing progress on the island so far! This post is just to let you know I've finished the first sort of major construction project so far. Here are some pictures showing the stages of production. Now that's all pretty cool I'm sure, but did you know that the lights activate in rotation? And that the light on the

When I returned I noticed there had been some progress made on the lighthouse. But not much. It was only a few hours later than when I had first came in. I brought the dust from the glowstone to the testificates. They told me that they knew how to turn it back to stone. I gladly handed it to them and they said they'd return it to me once the process was done. In the mean while I decided to

The Nether. I've heard of the place before. It was supposedly a horrifying realm filled with fire and death. This realm was fabled to be swarming with the howling dead and the screeching demons of fire. As I discussed with the testificates, they told me of the only known way into The Nether. They told me that I must construct a portal from obsidian and strike the frame with fire. They told

With the completion of the first house I went to check the eggs. As I pulled them from the chest they seemed to have swollen a little larger. They felt cold to the touch so I brought them outside to warm up in the suns rays. I set the three eggs gently in the grass and ass I walked away I heard some strange noises. The eggs began to crack and before my eggs each one hatched a fully grown

After a couple of days of clearing out the wood and underbrush in the area, I was beginning to realize just how large of a task this was. So I decided to try a much faster approach. The wood and underbrush was really wet so it took a lot of effort to get the fires going and to keep them going. After I got the fires going I built a boat and set off for the island I saw off in the

I made it back to my original camp without a problem. When I got there I found my cat waiting for me. He meowed happily at me and began to rub himself on my leg. I took some of the iron ore and stuffed it in the furnace and lit some coal under it to begin the smelting process. While waiting I went to return to my house, only to find it raining and pitch black. I could see now why the cat chose

I carried on the to end of this branch of the cave and took the skeleton waiting there by surprise. I turned back around and collected the ores I could as I returned to the last branching point in the cave. As i was mining some iron a small amount of gravel came pouring down nearly missing me. I decided that it'd be best to be a little more careful mining in the roof of the cave. When I

As I stepped into the cave the cold stale air filled my lungs. I grabbed my sword and some torches and began to explore. I decided to head left first. A little ways into the cave it branched out into two paths. I took the left path again, taking metal notes of exposed ores so I could collect them once I felt safe. Once I reached the end of the path, I turned around and checked the other. The
