I know this is kind of late but whatever. This is a day by day record of my process building Xeb Island. You will have no idea what I’m talking about just by seeing the pictures. Download and explore the world if you haven’t. Each photo was taken after I was done building for the day.

Day 1 - 6 Hours (of work)

Scouted out the island, picked a spot for the resort/beach area. Started with the dock/spawn, worked my way up to the arch/wall/doorway. This is where the real party starts. Started the yellow building as just plain wood/stone, added the yellow after since it looked like a prison at first. Then I added the balconies and opened up the windows. World Edited in a larger beach since it was mostly grass on the shore. Added the entrance garden area. Started building the green branch, left it as a very roughly built box (no rooms/floors). Went on to add the yellow/green minecart-line, redstone took a while since it’s not my forté. Left the minecart-line very rough as well, went on to build the water wall. 

Day 2 - 3 Hours

Started the orange branch, took longer than other buildings since it cut straight through a hill. Added walls/floors to green and orange branches, lit ‘em up. Added even more sand to the beach as well as made the resort area inescapable to visitors (something I learned is useful from being in Vegas casinos) other than the dock entrance. Added the yellow/orange minecart-line.

Day 3 - 3 Hours

Added furniture to the orange and green branches. Added desks and tables to yellow building. Added a path along the beach, and green branch path entrance. Added a porch with umbrellas and beds to the orange branch. Added some flowers/tall grass to the grass above the path. Smoothed out the top of the water wall to get ready for the minecart tour. Built the shady shack.

Day 4 - 2 Hours

Added palm trees to the resort area. Replicated Barnacle Brig from my first creative world and updated it to modern standards. Added helicopters and pads. Got Carole’s opinion on what I had built so far, positive results.

Day 5 - 1 Hour

Started the minecart tour. Added the starting station in the orange branch (had no idea where the tour would end). Built track platform until first arch. Lit up caves the tour would go through ahead of time.

Day 6 - 2 Hours

Finished track platform. Started adding tracks. Worked on insides of caves.  Blocked off entrances/caves everywhere, making areas inescapable. Added the shady shack insides.

Day 7 - 2 Hours

Finished minecart tour track (added redstone, tracks, and torches). Made all the caves look pretty.

Final

Etc.

Where (I think) Uncharted 3 Flawed

Before I start pointing out all the flaws I’m going to, let me just say I think Uncharted 3 is an phenomenal game that deserves the scores it got and that this blog will contain spoilers. So go finish playing it then come back here, as it is one of the best games out there and should not be missed out on. Now back to the chase, it did as all games do, have some flaws though. These flaws made it worse than Uncharted 2 (which is the best Uncharted game for me) in my opinion, and I’m going to discuss those in detail now. 

I’m also not talking about multiplayer at all in this post. Just singleplayer and comparing to Uncharted 2.

*SPOILER ALERT*

Think I’m gonna get into more into the Uncharted YouTube community, it lacks viewers and Tubers. As well as YouTube in general, since I haven’t been very active for a while. Minecraft’s YouTube community is set for life.

Portrait/Logo

I'm a Canadian 15 year old who has a nice comfy spot on the interwebs. I most likely want to be a graphic designer when I grow up. I like Minecraft and Uncharted. I like watching movies, and some TV shows. I also don't enjoy getting much exercise or even going outside for that matter. I also hate wearing socks/shoes.
