Four Years is a Long Time for a Minecraft Evolution
In this first map image you’ll see that Redditor bmach shared it on the r/minecraft subreddit yesterday. He wanted to show what it looked like after four years’ worth of building and terraforming (using a combination of actual in-game building, and the third-party editing tools MCEdit and Worldpainter.)
bmach created the comparison album after accidentally coming across an old collection of Alpha screenshots. bmach stood on the exact same spot as in the old shots, taking a screenshot while facing the same direction. This enabled him to capture the entire effect. If you look closely (well not even that closely) you can easily tell it’s the evolution of the same map on a few of the comparisons.
