Here's your ticket to a world of adventures with Minecraft and programming. Learn how to extend Minecraft and create a new gaming experience by learning Minecraft programming. Adventures in Minecraft, like other books in the highly successful Adventures series, is written especially for 11- to 15-year-olds. Get started writing Minecraft programs in Python on your PC, Mac, or Raspberry Pi. Build houses and other structures in the blink of an eye, and make a 3D duplicating machine. Write interactive games like a field that charges you rent, and a treasure hunt using magic vanishing bridges. Build custom game control panels using simple electronic circuits. Build huge 2D and 3D structures such as spheres and pyramids. Build intelligent objects like a massive Minecraft clock, and program an alien invasion. To use this book you will need a computer: a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian, a PC running Windows, or an Apple Mac running OS X. You will need a working connection to the Internet, and we assume you already have a Minecraft ID and a working copy of Minecraft installed. We also assume you know how to play the Minecrat game. Visit wiley.com/go/adventuresinminecraft to download the starter kit for the projects in this book. Using the programming skills you learn from this book, writing Minecraft programs offers endless possibilities to create anything you can imagine. Author Martin O'Hanlon blogs about Minecraft and Raspberry Pi at stuffaboutcode.com and he lives in Birmingham, UK.
