Flappy Steve: A Game Inside Minecraft

New projects are being released in the video game industry every year that blow it up and gain popularity in a short period. At one time, Minecraft astounded all players and became popular. After that, a few years later, Flappy Bird became successful, where you play as a small bird and try not to die, as you have only one life. Now, a fan of these games has decided to combine the two legendary projects by fusing them into one. It is how a mod called Flappy Steve appeared, available for download to anyone. In this review, we are going to tell you what the advantages of this add-on are in detail.

The Flappy Steve mod is based on a game released for iOS and Android in 2013. You will have to pass all the challenges and get a reward — however, that will be not an easy task, to say the least. You will be able to play it not only solo but also in multiplayer mode, so the Flappy Steve mod can be used on servers as well, although the designer promised to add several useful options for its further refinement. It already features many console commands to control the gameplay, though.

Review of the Flappy Steve Mod

The player will need to move between the pipes, having just one life. However, the gaps between them are very small, and that will not be an easy task, even if you are constantly playing similar games. The controls are standard, but at first, the gameplay will still be unusual, as there have never been such games inside Minecraft, given that it is a sandbox, and this game is altogether different. Even so, we know many examples of automated maps, arenas, parkour zones, microprocessors, and many other circuits created in the cubic world since the internal functionality of Minecraft allows you to do this.

So you will be able to play not only in singleplayer mode, and the designer of the Flappy Steve mod notes from the outset that you can create an arena where other users will also be able to play. Whoever passes all the challenges faster wins. You will have to act in a semi-stealth way, and if you fall off a pipe, you start all over again. However, other players will continue the completion. The first one who goes through to the end wins. Each player will also have a separate scoreboard recording their achievements. Each point will give you coins, for which you will be able to buy additional items in a virtual store. In short, it is a full-fledged game inside the game, and the broad potential of Minecraft thus positively surprises us once again.

Console commands. As you might have guessed, the mod implies many commands, both for admins and players. They allow you to create arenas, edit them, delete them, define parameters, and much more. We have compiled a complete list thereof and described each of them so you can understand how to control all the processes in the Flappy Steve add-on:

· /flappy create <name> <min> <max> — create an arena with certain properties (maximum and minimum);

· /flappy createsp <name> — create a Flappy Steve arena for singleplayer mode (please note that for multiplayer mode, another command is used);

· /flappy delete <name> — delete the selected arena;

· /flappy list — a complete list of all created game arenas;

· /flappy setLobby <name> — defines the arena's lobby of the arena and allows you to allocate the territory correctly;

· /flappy setSpawn <name> — set a spawn point in the arena: as a rule, it should be some kind of initial cube or area;

· /flappy setTimer <name> <timer> — set timers for the arena;

· /flappy setGameLength <name> <length> — set game length;

· /flappy wand — add a wand to the characters' inventories;

· /flappy addTube <name> — add a tube to the arena with the selected player;

· /flappy setEnd <name> — set the end point for the selected player;

· /flappy setMin <name> <min> — set or change the minimum number of players for a Flappy Steve multiplayer session;

· /flappy setMax <name> <min> — set or change the maximum number of players for a Flappy Steve multiplayer session;

· /flappy reload — reload the config file;

· /flappy stats — display a player's statistics;

· /flappy join <name> — join a particular arena;

· /flappy leave — leave the current location;

· /flappy coins set/get/take/add <player> <amount> — set, get, take, or add coins as regards a player;

· /flappy about — detailed information about the mod;

· /flappy shop — open a store where one can purchase helpful items to complete the location.

As the designer of the Flappy Steve mod claims, you will not have to get permissions or adjust settings. Admins can customize a map, and players get access to the standard functions necessary for completion, viewing the score, and buying items even by default. At first, it will be unusual to apply commands to control all the activities, but subsequently, you will be able to do that in a couple of clicks since many processes here are fully automated.

If you are unable to create an arena but wish to play, it will be enough to type the /flappy command and start playing. Everything is automated here — you will just need to run through the blocks, overcoming various obstacles. We have taken some screenshots for you to show you what the gameplay looks like and what its advantages are. The system generates a narrow corridor with obstacles. You will have to jump and collect little birds — but if you fall, you will lose. At the same time, the track is constantly being prolongated, and as soon as the player reaches the ostensible end point, the system adds more obstacles. This is how the default dynamic generation of this mod works.

The add-on has proved unusual and fascinating, although it may not be quite suitable for any server, given that strict control of the arena is required to generate all corridors, and if there are many user buildings, you will have to create an arena far away, tens of thousands of blocks from the main zone. Still, it is quite a good option to prove yourself and have fun. We are looking forward to your comments on the Flappy Steve mod. Do you think the gameplay of Minecraft becomes more interesting when modders try to create new games inside the virtual sandbox, or does that just overload the cubic world already full of blocks and locations?
