Slimes being able to go through blocks should be a thing tbh. I mean, it's a slime. It CAN do that
They're squishy!
Depends, if it's something like cobblestone, planks, dirt, sure.
But not stone or anything without the holes in it.

"Minecraft Alpha Is Broken"
"Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes"
what?
Just noticed the video title has changed, it was previously titled "Minecraft Alpha is Broken"
Together we can stop this.
I know the meme, but i didn't got your joke
@@Nik1_ Essentially, he's saying "Yeah, no shit Minecraft Alpha is broken, it's an early development version of the game."
I guess the sand being placed on snow layers is a 1.20 bug too :P
Definitely :P
@@noodlybanan The minecraft handbooks also make up false information
Ah yes the OFFICIAL Minecraft handbook makes up false info
no it's not, that has never been a bug lol
Not really
Leaf decay broke like 5 times in early minecraft
Reading patch notes mentioning "leaf decay disabled/enabled" was very funny after a while.
- Bug 13 - I feel like this was maybe intentional (as kind of a joke), after all, the oak door has 4 holes for windows.
- Bug 16 - This also caused the player to interact with the block behind the stair (i.e., trying to break the stair, only to break the block behind the stair).
- Bug 17 - This was actually by design in the early version due to how block rotation was coded. They would face "in front of" the existing block on all 4 sides (the weird hitbox was probably a side-effect of this).
- Bug 50 - This is my favorite audible bug, holding shift while building something, then releasing after to hear compressed sounds. (I think it would even crash on occasions)
- Bug 76 - I wonder if this was actually intended at one point. I mean, they are squishy slimes...
- Bug 84 - That's the famous Minecart Booster Track, where all you had to do was ride next to an adjacent cart.
- Bug 87 - I always thought this was a normal generation (like the mixed grass/stone terrain generation).
Here's a few more that I've noticed playing the old alpha version over the years -
- There was a bug where iron (or all ores?) generated less in one quadrant of the world.
- Items falling onto farmland would destroy the farmland.
- Walking on farmland destroyed farmland.
- Sometimes placing a block would update farmland within that chunk.
- Lava had the same weird hitbox as water, meaning you could burn yourself standing in the corner of a block.
- It was possible to place a stair within yourself in some circumstances.
- There were occasional stutter bugs where the player would become stuck and the screen would shake until the player backed up.
Also, I thought sub-chunks were added in 1.9.
isnt walking on farmland destroying farmland a feature? youre supposed to sneak when going over farmland so it doesnt break, theyve only changed this in recent versions so that you can walk on farmland and not break it but not sprint on it
@@jeremygeroy3174 sprinting on farmland doesn't do anything either, it's jumping that you have to look out for, and "recent versions" is a bit of a reach, this was changed all the way back in release 1.1! (though I guess when compared to Alpha just about every version is recent). Oh, and yes, the original trampling by walking mechanic was intended, you are correct.
The one with the door is definitely a bug, the same as number 71 (can't interact with blocks if you are inside them)
Of course the minecart boosting may have been a bug originally, but since it was the easiest way to speed up a minecart it was being used in practically every world; so they didn't fix it until they had made an alternative (powered rails, beta 1.5)
I like to think of 17 as a bug just bc i couldn't imagine the stairs being intentionally so poorly designed.
oh so i wasnt imagining things when i kept sneaking through farmland
Making cakes with buckets of milk also consumes buckets if i remember correctly
That could be true, probably in Beta 1.2 when cakes were initially added. I don't know that era of minecraft as well :P
tasty cakes with iron
The timing and your delivery of the bugs makes me fondly recall Sethbling, I’d like to thank you for that.
It’s a shame it’s in this state. If only there were future versions that fixed these issues or added more features 😢
Use beta craft launcher. It fixes most of these bugs!
As someone who plays primarily alpha I'm almost constantly reminded of most of these bugs...
And i presume you constantly use them?
Incredible video. We need more Golden Age themed Minecraft youtubers like you and Paladin Ryan.
TheBoyRyan 🤗
my favourite is by far the on-fire minecart, looks sick af
First time i ever heard the audio glitch caused by going down stairs i got a little spooked haha
the slime phasing in the blocks make sense
3:04 this bug still exists in modern minecraft
i have a "wealth" of knowledge on how the old versions work inside (and have even fixed some of their issues, such as one you didnt mention about stepping up blocks that ive demo'd on my channel) so i can espouse on why some of these happen.
relogging while sneaking causing phasing is due to how the sneaking animation was implemented. it abuses the "y slide offset" system thats used for smoothing your camera when stepping up blocks. sneaking adds a constant negative offset to it, which affects your real y coordinate. this normally isnt much of an issue since the game usually relies on your bbox for collisions n' stuff (the two are separate long story), but when saving/loading, the game only uses your xyz, which when sneaking, is technically in a lower block, thus you log in inside one.
(edit: okay to be anally truthful, at this point in the game, your XYZ coord is actually at eye level because jank spaghettii involving the camera being centred at the player XYZ, but when you log back in your hitbox is created inside of a block around that eyeline XYZ, and you dont collide with blocks you already intersect, so the effect is the same)
speaking of jank collisions, being able to hit through doors was not an intentional mechanic. this actually occurs with any block your head can be in, most annoyingly noticeable with torches. i still havent figured out _why_, but i think its a similar reason to why stair hitboxes are so fucked.
Glad you were able to give a peek behind the curtain! It's always cool to hear about how these odd bugs came to be :)
This is why i hate youtube These underrated youtubers work so hard to not even be noticed on youtube its so unfair
your feelings are irrational
@@Fire_Axus ratio

Just what happens when millions upon millions of people are making content unfortunately. It's hard to get known in the Internet age unless you get lucky.
Really nice video! These older versions have such a good charm about them
I still feel like the subchunk invisibility or stairs and fences is so cool. happy to see another Jy video :D
your feelings are irrational
I find it super funny that similar bugs (like buttons, pressure plates, and cacti being bigger when dropped) all get their own spot on the issue list haha.
Very informative video! :) I have a love for this version of Minecraft even tho I don’t play it as much anymore. It’s super fun to hear about all these wacky bugs
Your video is really good! There were bugs I had no idea about. Overall, I absolutely liked everything. Editing and presentation are on a good level. Thanks a lot!
Good to see you back Jy!
I’ve been playing modded so long now I forgot how broken early Minecraft really is lol. Great video!
Repeating seeds and the farlands have to be my favorite bugs
Wow great video, combining two of my favorite video types, nostalgic minecraft and rapid fire bug videos
I vividly remember loosing my first Minecraft house due to 012, setting fire to my wooden house through the door, and with they speed of fire spread back then, it was just lost.
I think "all 7 of these blocks render larger than normal" could all be compiled into one entry
When you say it counts as a separate bug for both wooden and stone pressure plates, you're splitting hairs
Redundant redundancy
I honestly love that farmland can literally break bedrock how did they not notice this?
I think because initially you were never able to place blocks under the bedrock, since bedrock existed only in the floor of the overworld. That only became useful once the nether was added. But I haven't tested how early that trick worked
@@valkeakirahviI am pretty sure there were little change to bedrock generation since late Infdev, but I think only later (in Beta?), it was updated so it doesn't have holes in the bottom layer.
it's broken, it's buggy, but it is home...
Amazing video! I didn't think Minecraft Alpha was THAT broken... Also, when you start breaking a block and you open a GUI, then you close it, the hand doesn't swing anymore.
Brings me back watching Sethbling.
Awesome video
Good video, thank you for making it. I don't leave comments too often, but just wanted to mention that I'd love to see more like this.
#83 blew my mind for some reason
0:56 GUYS WE FOUND THE WAY TO BREAK BED ROCK
wow, this is crazy. i hope they fix this game soon, it'll never sell if they dont
Dude i like the door bug one where you can place blocks and punch things in the holes of the door. So unique bug there
i remember playing pocket edition very early on, many of these bugs were present there too
Extra info about bug 90 for anybody reading this: This glitch only occurs near flat areas because monoliths only generate when the "hillFactor value" of an area becomes negative, which means the surrounding area will have a hillFactor close to 0.
came up in my recommended, watched the whole video before realizing you only have ~600 subscribers. great video man, you've gained a new sub👍
I remember using that tool durability glitch to mine out a massive area with only one pickaxe on an alpha server. I forget what server, though.
4:26 red ore XD
Bro has beef with Alpha 1.1.2_01
I have searched for years to finally find a channel that actually plays alpha Minecraft. +1 subscriber. Thank you for doing something different.
All these bugs in retrospect add so much charm to the game, the older versions were so much more simple, empty, and just has this nostalgic feeling, I love it so much
This is very nostalgic.
They should put some of these bugs back in. I will always support re-adding the farlands
i heard someone describe finding bugs in alpha as finding a needle in a needlestack
Lol it's true, there's probably more bugs than blocks in the game
congrats 1K subs bro btw when will you make another video I miss your survival videos
Great video Jy!!
some of these bugs are just pointing out design choices that weren't made yet. like, just because later devs decided that buckets shouldn't be consumed in a furnace or that the inventory crafting grid shouldn't store items doesn't mean its a "bug" that that choice wasn't made years earlier. also, the punching through doors from the inside always seemed like a feature to me, not a bug.
Wow so many thing i somehow forgot about back when i started at this exact version
Fun to say that the only reasonable bugs here are conditional ones (means you need to legitimately provoke them), the rest are more or less bearable or completely harmless, which is impressive for something as raw and old as Alphas.
The most painful bug I personally hate in Alphas are crashes whenever you try to generate a world, but that happens due to how Java protocols gets mad over Minecraft and probably entities within players' FOV(?).
For someone whos been generating Alpha worlds many dozens of times - its hella annoying, but atleast Alpha loads up like instantly so even if it crashes - theres almost no difference in time.
Also side note on 3:58 - boats' drop can also be exploited crazily if you use something like a macros on it.
Getting the bucket after using lava is fairly new. Use to consume it for a long time
4:20 Take a shot everytime he goes: breaking a X with a Y takes longer than it should
It's gonna be a good night lol
some of these I never realized as a kid they were bugs... i always assumed they were actual features
I started in 1.5, but some of these bugs are kinda nostalgic lol.
Maybe you should contact the developers
1:07 i actually used to think this was a feature. also, i think #47 might actually still be in the game.
Another terrain bug I noticed was that some worlds have large areas with no grass. Trees will spawn and so will the grass block underneath them, however the rest of the grass in a 100x100 area is missing.
From what I've heard, these areas of exposed stone were on purpose and were nicknamed the "shields" terrain (biomes weren't added til a1.2.0)
Great video! I also think your world is very cool! Do you have a download of it or perhaps some more footage at least to look at it?
HE'S BACK
Reminds me of the Sethbling videos of the same style back in the day
Sethblings spiritual successor
theres also a bug where if you´re breaking a block, pause and unpause while holding left mouse button, the punching animation will stop but not the actual breaking of the block

Me: OMG HE’S STILL ACTIVE YESS!
Damn I hope they patch these soon! Maybe one day they'll even add more animals like horses!
Alpha 1.1.2 was made to fix the alpha 1.1.1 light gray screen, i guess they forget about these bugs
what a alpha version man.
Fun fact: The infinite repeating chunks bug happens because all unloaded chunks share a reference to a single empty chunk. This happens when a block that is unloaded on the client is updated on the server, causing the change to be reflected to the shared empty chunk. The chunk renderer will naively reflect these changes to all empty chunks within render distance. The reason this doesn't happen in singleplayer is because this is a purely multiplayer-related issue and Minecraft didn't use an internal server at the time.
this is a good video, earned a sub
BROS VOICE IS SO CALM
I didn't even think of half of them as bugs. It's just how I remember minecraft
i think there was an update released for alpha, not long ago, that fixed some of these bugs, try checking the minecraft launcher, see if it's there
The old door noise 💀
I think you missed that one bug that made mining with any sword a bit faster than with bare hands. Crafting tables were actually easier to break this way! Someone probably already pointed this out. Or maybe it wasn't a bug yet in this version. I'm assuming it already existed then but idk, I do remember it existing in Beta 1.7 though
man i honestly miss early minecraft its simplicity is what made it fun
I am your 916th sub, good job bud!
I have encountered many, many of these!
Ah classic Minecraft. Simpler times. I would play it but older versions do not have sound effects because Mojang didn’t own the sound files
you could use betacraft or setup a launcher like Prism with one of its resource proxies. works like a charm
you could put a good few of these into category's feels like some bugs are just repeated over and over
You should tell notch to fix these! great video btw
whats the music in the beginning it sounds so calming
I hope Notch fixes those bugs in the next update.
I hope they fix these bugs, this version is practically unplayable
I hope they fix these bugs soon
Jy is back with a video. Jy is back with a listicle, Jy is back with a Minecraft video. 🤗
I always thought 12 was intentional as you can reach through the door's window.
Yeah it's certainly convenient for killing monsters xD
I didn't even know alpha lava dried up. I thought it was intentionally permanent at the time to mess with you
I still expect some of them to happen in the current game to this day, but they never do and it makes me vaguely sad for some reason.
“Breaking bedrock with a pickaxe takes longer than it should”
Actually, it's faster than breaking a workbench lol
I think carts and boats going black is still a thing, kind of like it
3:08 I'm bored Morty, I'm gonna **burp** delete your minecraft world Morty
I suffered through all of these bugs when playing minecraft alpha and the lilypad version
5:33 can't imagine how many time this happened lmao
Minecraft alpha feels broken when you encounter bugs that might break the game.
I know 101 is a nice number, but could you make a video on the other bugs in minecraft alpha, or link to where any of them are discussed?
There's a good number of discord and reddit communities and forums for Alpha Minecraft or Golden Age Minecraft which are great places to discuss the game, but no comprehensive list exists that I know of... These are just 101 bugs that I came up with when playing a1.1.2_01 for the past 3 years.
1:07 i think that was a feature
Great vid! I would love to know how to get the alpha version of the game in 2024!
Personally, I use the Betacraft launcher cause it makes all the sounds work correctly :)
betacraft.uk
wow i didnt know alpha was THIS broken
MC Alpha is fun but tedious, also hi Jy!
Bugs in video games make feel weird. Imagine if bugs existed in real life.
How do you know they dont?
Well, I am pretty sure my brain glitches out once in a while.
0:45 this bug is present in beta 1.7.3 but with beds instead of doors. you can actually duplicate beds by doing this
Neat!
how did we even play this game...
jk the bugs are kind of nostalgic
