It's still pretty buggy, especially the npc villages XD
I love the new lighting though, it looks really eerie an caves
And I hate how cows sprint when you punch them though, I can see why, but it's annoying.
Can't wait for the actual update!

yeh it is still pretty buggy, like when you drag and drop things out of your inventory it leaves ghostly entities :/

Just about to download it ! looks like fun

Messed around on creative for a while. No villages yet but I found several mineshaft/mines. One of em opened up into a massive crag in the ground.
Will post pics when I get them hosted.

Also found my first Endermen! Oh just a FYI, yes they will move unnatural blocks like planks. Not sure if they'll target player-placed blocks though.
And they burn up in the sun like zhombies/skellys etc.

EDIT: Cavern Pics up =)

EDIT: Enderman Pics Up =) This guy was chasing me for a while. Apparently they drop Ender Pearls, which half the distance you can look at them without them attacking you. If you right-click an Enderman with a Ender Pearl, it's supposed to teleport them somewhere you cant see them.

Lol, he looks angry. Like he wants to bury you with that dirt block. And is that the lighthouse in the background? : P
