Final Hours Analyzed!
You can watch it here https://youtu.be/mcA3Dufgh_k?si=k8cX6d843CpVD_eB
AlphaVer or Minecraft Alpha 1.0.16 Versions (we call it AlphaVer), is a fictional web series/ARG that revolves around a closed-off branch of the actual Alpha 1.0.16 version of Minecraft. Nextre-dev, the owner of the original repo, is no longer active on Github, so I thought I would do my best to update the repository to include all the new infomation I could find. Please feel free to open an issue if I've missed something!
Please keep in mind this is WIP, so most things probably aren't here right now.
I recommend you start by checking out RetroGamingNow's two videos, as they explain most of the vital parts entertainingly. If you came from here though, go ahead and read through the repo, it contains a lot of information. Part One Part Two
If you feel like picking up the playable versions, but don't know how to, you can check out the following video guides:
NOTE: These pages aren't a great starting point. They are more like a reference. Head over to Entry Point for a starting point.
Currently, the latest video is Final Hours.
