This Survival Island is compatible with Minecraft 1.3 and up!

Story:

You are the crew of a merchant ship, passing by a small set of islands, a storm has been raging for hours when suddenly a terrifying lightning bolt strikes your ship! Even though it was raining the fire spread throughout the ship letting water pour in. You manage to crash into a nearby island before the ship begins to sink, the fire has stopped and the sun appears - but it's starting to set, seems like you're unlucky...

You and your crew must survive on the island until another merchant ship passes by, but who knows how long that will take. Maybe there is a washed up chest from other ships which have had similar problems on the island.


Important(ish)

Great map for multiplayer, although you could try single. Either way post comments and record videos to show me what you think! :)

REMEMBER: If you're uploading video's of this to Youtube, make sure to add the keyword: YoursCrafter (this will help me find the videos. I love to watch videos on this lol :P )

The Merchant Village

Now complete, this includes a dock with small shops with a path leading to the village, this is where the map finishes (Unless you want to explore the world and the stronghold next to the village). Pretty much means your main goal in this map is to make it back home.

Video:

Added a nice trailer for this survival map. Thanks to my friend Gurlim! :)

Recent Activity:

Updated the map to 1.3, small fixes and such. Updated video.


Thanks for all the positive comments, Remember to give this a diamond if you liked my world! If you do even more people can discover this map, so it's greatly appreciated! :)

 1. click the "start" button down the bottom left of your screen.
 2. In the search box type %appdata% and click the folder named "roaming"
 3. In this "roaming" folder should be your minecraft folder named .minecraft

[Announcement] Currently looking for a new feature video, I'll probably do a small update around the same time that I choose a new one, there are a few bugs that keep bothering me...

Update #13 : 04/09/2012 12:04:33 am4/09/12

Biomes have been swapped to appropriate replacements.

EDIT: realised that it said swamped @_@ durp...

Update #12 : 03/24/2012 5:10:58 pm3/24/12

Just a new alert - Working on editing the biome data on the map so there is no more snow.

Update #10 : 01/29/2012 11:11:44 pm1/29/12

Added Let's Play list, post yours to be added on the list.

Update #9 : 01/14/2012 6:16:06 pm1/14/12

Thought I would add a snow biome-related goal and one other, not much of an update but it hasn't seen one in awhile now.

Update #8 : 12/12/2011 6:30:36 am12/12/11

1.0.0 version update!

Video added!

End portal at the finish.

Pretty much name changed since adding the version it was when I made it might have confused some people... Stranded was a nice name I took from Woggenz' video. :P

Update #7 : 11/28/2011 12:38:57 am11/28/11

Just a small adjustment to Project Details.

Hopefully no major updates from now on, don't want to keep changing the gameplay too much, unless suggested by a few people.

Finished the map ^_^

#15. Make a library with many bookshelves

#16. Create a small village around the castle you have built

Thought I should add something as I haven't been able to work on my island recently.

Update #4 : 10/12/2011 4:13:21 pm10/12/11

Added new goal: Rebuild The ship.

Update #3 : 10/10/2011 7:32:05 pm10/10/11

Put in a few secrets (more to come).

Added an abandoned building on the other island.

Sand is now the topsoil of the islands rather than mostly dirt.

Boat has been further burnt down so less wood is available.

Well to be perfectly frank, i found one of the chests to begin with, only when i went back to get the "trap" did i see the other with the map in it =P But i had a great time exploring while it lasted, i just need to make my castle and connect the islands now, then the end shall perish =D Definitely by far the best survival island I've ever played by far
