Summary
- A Minecraft player added redstone to their in-game emulator, showing creativity and innovation within the community.
- Redditor ModPunchtree shared the coding process for working redstone items like dust, torches, repeaters, and lamps.
- Inventive uses of redstone demonstrate potential for building complex contraptions in Minecraft.
An inventive Minecraft player has added redstone to the emulator they created for Mojang's sandbox that runs inside the game. Redstone is one of the oldest Minecraft items, dating back to the earliest versions of the game. It is also one of the favorite resources of players who like to exercise their creativity in a more elaborate way by creating contraptions of various kinds, from functional to more intricate projects.
The community has already shared countless examples of these ideas, such as the Minecraft player who build a playable version of Minesweeper using redstone, achieving a result that was very faithful to the classic Windows game. Other players have recreated iconic games such as Geometry Dash, and Guitar Hero, and made useful builds such as activatable portals, smart elevators, and efficient ways to grow items such as bamboo. This time, a player has shared an even more special project, proving that the uses for redstone are many.
Redditor ModPunchtree added redstone to their Minecraft emulator that runs inside the game. They shared the coding process in a video, showing how they added the well-known Minecraft item to the version of the game that runs on IRIS, the popular redstone computer they made. In the comments section, they explain that the update introduced working versions of redstone dust, torches, repeaters, and lamps. They go on to say that this was one of the most requested additions by players after they gave color to the graphics of their Minecraft emulator.
Player Impresses by Adding Functional Redstone to Minecraft Emulator that Runs In-Game
ModPunchtree is a member of the Minecraft community known for their experiments with redstone, who keeps a YouTube channel where they share their projects with the audience. In addition to this impressive addition of redstone to their emulator, the OP has made headlines other times by creating playable versions of DOOM and Tetris. Another project of theirs that also impressed was the use of ray tracing, the popular technology that improves the visual experience for games, which was given a working version on their computer through redstone.
Examples like this show off the inventiveness of Minecraft players, which makes it famous for its endless creativity. Redstone, in particular, stands out for being one of the most complex items in the game and is perfect for tech-savvy players to bring their ideas to life. Going further, these mechanics have great untapped potential for Mojang, which could bring to life a Minecraft spinoff inspired by Satisfactory, allowing players to create even more complex contraptions.

WHERE TO PLAY
Minecraft is a game made up of blocks, creatures, and community. You can survive the night or build a work of art – the choice is all yours. But if the thought of exploring a vast new world all on your own feels overwhelming, then fear not!
Minecraft has no set goal and can be played however you’d like! This is why it’s sometimes called a “sandbox game” – there are lots of things for you to do, and lots of ways that you can play. If you like being creative, then you can use the blocks to build things from your imagination. If you’re feeling brave, you can explore the world and face daring challenges. Blocks can be broken, crafted, placed to reshape the landscape, or used to build fantastical creations.
Creatures can be battled or befriended, depending on how you play. The world of Minecraft allows for epic adventures, quiet meditations, and everything in between. You can even share your creations with other players, or play in community worlds!
