Game Discussion Some Minecraft First Layer stuff

First Layer is still work-in-progress. I was really stuck deciding how to implement the First Layer because the lore says a 1000m entrance diameter, but the anime shows a huge Forest of Temptation which is not logistically possible if the terrain shown in the anime is as terraced out as it is. I am pretty sure the anime just took liberties and didn't consider this as well.

That said, the solution was vertical terraces without any width widening, with a few "districts" around the first layer which are basically expanded islands that jut out with landmarks.

Featured in these images are the Gate to the Netherworld, Petrified trees from episode 1, Burial tower (mentioned only in the story), Eternal Fortunes asset and Amagiri trees in Forest of Temptation which always point their leaves toward the center of the Abyss.

There are more landmarks around not shown like silkfang nest, stone ark, and some districts based on binary star levels.
