This strikes me as a combination of ideas they had for the Trails update, an end update, and a potential Skulk dimension. There are random pathways and potato-wood platforms naturally generating (literal trails). The grappling hook would make end traversal much more fun. A new block that is semi-hostile (possible new skulk variant block?). The potato wood also somewhat resembles recolored/re-textured bamboo, maybe they had plans at one point to add a bamboo village? The potato boss also seems like a theoretical new boss mob idea. Imagine changing the context to fighting a skulk boss that has absorbed the "souls" of so many mobs and you have to beat it by defeating the "ghosts" of what it has absorbed. I know they tend to go wacky with the April fool's update but this seems like it has way more of a beta test feel to it than just being for silly laughs

Not a lot of vegetables you can solely survive off of like you can potatoes, though, and those bad chemicals can be lowered by cooking to get them to acceptable amounts, but if you're eating them everyday that is a lot of all of them while not getting the cleansing benefits of other vegetables and even fruits. Hard to say, really.

Things I noticed while playing not seen in the video: The slab fish drop dents, part of a trident. Powerful potatoes are naturally occurring. Water is poisonous in certain biomes. Poisonous mash potatoes give the sticky buff when stood on, allowing the player to climb walls. Potato sheep can be sheared for their peels which come in whatever color they were.

And the block that is shooting at mobs also does not seem to fit into a potato update, but much better as a feature in an end update.

@@StAngerNo1 i'm pretty sure the floating island generation is just the end generation reused, but yeah that stuff seems like it would fit in an end update

Potatification on tools drops potatoes and poisonous potatoes when breaking blocks. Most blocks in potato dimension are broken with a hoe. The quardian slab mobs actually have spawners under the boss chamber. Also potato villagers can have jobs. Thank you for an amazing video ❤ There were loads of things to discover and thanks to you I picked up some cool ones. Hope that you can read this comment and learn something from my exploration.

I need like all of this in a data pack or something, it's all so good! Thanks for the video X!

i was thinking the same thing is it possible?

Nice Snapshot overview! looks like a fun one :) So much potential :)

there's actually a trapdoor in the colosseum floor that leads into a weird 1-tall maze (reminiscent of the potato door texture!) that just has four spawners for the slab guardians in it and nothing else also if you trigger more than one floatater at once the speed goes up, you can use /fill commands to aim a bunch of observers at a big square of them, I tried up to 7x7 which zoomed off pretty quickly!

Im going to try this on an end ship

The "this is not a potato" painting and the one with a potato covering a man's face are both based on famous paintings by René Magritte, specifically they're based on "The Treachery of Images" and "The Son of Man" respectively.

The doubling up mechanic seems like a fun thing to see. Imagine slimes doing that and get a tower of them. I would find it fun

The level of effort is amazing!

Such a large and detail snapshot indeed, love what mojang does on their april fool's updates!

​@@historictick8179Nah I trust mojang's gonna add more april fools features this time. We got a lot of features from last year's april fools

ive noticed in the past theyve used april fools snapshots to tease mechanics and tech theyve been working on so hopefully well see some kind of grappling hook or block mover soon

The Floatater gave me SO many ideas for builds. I’d love for it to be added.

There's so much inspiration from modded minecraft with this the whole dimension is very similar to the Aether Floatato blocks are like Extra Utilities (2) Angel Block Compressed potato blocks are like AllTheCompressed blocks The corrupted potato blocks are like Dreadful Dirt from Mob Grinding Utils The Mega Spud resembles the King Slime from Tinkers' Construct Lashing Potato has many Grappling mod to compare to, most common is probably Immersive Engineering's Engineer's Skyhook etc.

This definitely seems like a blueprint for a new dimension, they're probably tinkering with some features in this April Fools update so they can later add it on in some way or another.

So THAT'S what the Frying Table was! XD Joking aside, can't wait to play this, thanks for the showcase!

The poisonous potato man painting is a mod to ‘the son of man’ painting which is the one of the man in the bowler hat and an apple in front of his face.

Potato aether was interesting to see, I really hope we get to see some of these features in game at some point. The floatater mechanic is awesome, the grappling hook mechanic is really cool and even some of the smaller things, like amber and craftable tridents would be very interesting

Tater Starcher AKA Spudermash They even included potato vines so you can swing around just like him! EDIT: And a sticky effect allowing you to climb walls. I think we have our winner here!

3,779,136 poisinous potatoes to make a stack of quadruple compressed potato blocks

It’s cool how these updates are all hinting at things to possibly come :D

Genuinely loving the potato tree, the green animated logs look amazing and I need 1 million of them.

Floatater is definitely my favorite block, i hope mojang gave us something similar in the future update where we could interact with the moving block.

the floatater - if it goes up to the build limit and you activate it again, it breaks any block, including bedrock, it wont be stopped by obsidian and bedrock (probably for now), blocks placed on the sticky spot will drag other blocks with them, but the floatater does not stick itself (accept the sticky spot), ... the potato battery - if you turn it on it produces an redstone output of 15 and you cant turn it on with redstone itself you forgot that - if you fall from a big height onto the potato grass block (forgot the name) it will turn into mashed potato your video is to this current point the most correct, and almost everything you showed is what i have discovered and that is crazy to me .... fun fact, a few days ago i made an potato farm on a smp, and found a few poisoned potatos in the chests and said "oh right these exist" and today (01.04.2024.) minecraft anounced this update, i was flabergasted when i saw it and basicly i kinda predicted the poisoned potato update (that poisend potato on the smp was a sign)

Ooo. Those blocks look like you could make a tower defense game in minecraft. I guess you could make one regardless with zombie pigmen and turtle eggs? Youd have to avoid angering them so they come at you, other than if there was a path from the eggs to you behind the scenes

So much of this feels like an homage to modded mc--makes sense given a lot of the devs have a history in modded and don't get to put those ideas in vanilla. But like, quadruple-compressed cobblestone? Blocks that can spawn mobs regardless of light?

This shows how talented and not lazy the devs are, they are only limited by what they are allowed to place in the game.

Played this in survival with my sister. She discovered that if you put several of the talking potatoes in a chest and leave them, they will auto add paper with messages beside them inside the chest. The messages will change different times you open the chest. Some of the messages will even say the user's name along with text. Some of the messages are very creepy. A very cool touch to the snapshot.

"On the 5th day we met the Stray" that was beautiful! also i didnt expect them to add a grappling hook, seems fun to play with

It seems like if you used it in survival you would die nearly instantly. Which is honestly probably a good thing. Adds a new skill to master.

Thanks for covering it so fast! I played it for a bit but couldn't be bothered to try and beat that insane boss. I don't think I had even done any kind of damage. I saw the same thing with you and the redstone block seemingly moving away. Pretty wild optical illusion. 18:43 Oh wait didn't people see the frying table show up in some picture about the crafter a while ago? Turns out it was just for this April Fools update I guess.

Once again, an April Fools update with a few things we would really want to see in Vanilla! The floating blocks and motor are really cool, it makes me wonder why they havent actually added airships to minecraft yet! Also that exhaust thing is similar to something i mentioned on one of Tangos videos, basically a box fan looking thing that can blow players, mobs and items in whatever direction you place it in! Could also work work with pushing airships around too :)

April fools snapshots use code from stuff they’re already working on, so we probably will get something similar in the next update or the one after that

A strong grappling hook could be a contender to elytra as far as getting around if it's good enough and has a good range

Honestly dopest thing in Minecraft ive seen. Hopefully this is a trial run for some new features in real game.

This entire update seems to be brimming with features inspired by mods tailored specifically for this release. It's a testament to the creativity and innovation within the Minecraft modding community, and it's exciting to see how these ideas are integrated into the official game.
