MINECRAFT

[Vipershark]

after respawning from the last save that I was talking about earlier, i continued on

the next night that came, I was sitting in my house when I happened to look over to my left and OH FUCK A CREEPER
luckily it was outside (I had windows) but it was staring directly at me and following me around as i moved
i somehow got it stuck on the corner of the outer wall of my house, where I was able to attack it from pretty much the maximum distance allowed with a sword and was able to kill it.

I finally found an actual cave system, but haven't gone in yet.
I set up some torches at the entrance, and so far I'm currently working on getting a good base of operations set up.

In addition to my house built at my spawn, I'm also building a set of escape tunnels to make sure that if I get attacked, i can get away.
This tunnel goes from the cave, through a mountain, out into a valley, then through another mountain. I built a small house at the entrance of the cave to hold items and to allow me to do some emergency crafting, and my escape tunnel will get me back outside.

I think the best part of my escape tunnel is that at the part with the valley, it's pretty much monster proof.

The tunnel exits the mountain directly into a hallway encased in glass, which has torches lining the outside. Monsters can't spawn in or near the tunnel because of this, and i even added doors to the sides so that I can grab soil or wood from the valley in an emergency without having to travel all the way to my main house.

It's not complete yet, but if you want to look at it I'll upload my save file.
