Minecraft Snapshot 1.3

[Garland Flugum]

ASnapshot is a testing version of Minecraft, periodically released by Mojang Studios. These versions of the game, with "unrefined" features, are available for players to try out. Players may provide feedback and bug-reports to Mojang before the features of the snapshot are implemented into an official update. Snapshots are available for the Java Edition version of the game.

Starting on November 22, 2013,[1] Mojang began publicly releasing test versions of full updates to Android users who opted into the beta program. Previous versions (from Alpha 0.8.0 to 0.12.1) required opting into a Google+ group to receive development builds which would then appear as normal updates in the Play Store; the group was removed on July 17, 2015 due to the amount of spam and advertisements that the group attracted.

Minecraft's highly anticipated April Fools' Day update is here, and the developers have themed it around Poisonous Potatoes. Mojang Studios is known for its funky updates on April 1 every year, and this time around its focus seems to be on an item that is considered to be the most useless in Minecraft.

Minecraft players are eagerly waiting for the next major update, 1.21, to be released later this year. From new blocks to mobs and dungeons, there is plenty to look forward to. To gear up for the massive update, Mojang has been releasing snapshots to make incremental tweaks to Minecraft. For instance, the recently released Minecraft Snapshot 24w13a made a series of exciting changes to the Mace, adding the ability to enhance it with existing and new enchantments, which made it even more powerful. Now, fans are getting a chance to try out one of the most hilarious Minecraft updates Mojang has released in recent times.

In a new blog post, Mojang has revealed the complete patch notes of the Poisonous Potato update. A plethora of things in the game have given a poisonous potato theme including but not limited to blocks, mobs, and even paintings. Perhaps one of the funniest parts of the update is the full Poisonous Potato armor set, which when equipped, will destroy nearby mobs due to its poisonous effects. Items like couches and lamps have also been given a poisonous touch. In fact, even Minecraft's weather effects didn't get spared, as rain has been turned green in the snapshot.

There is also a Poisonous Potato dimension along with five new Minecraft biomes. The new dimension can be accessed through the Potato Portal, which can be unlocked by placing a Poisonous Potato on a pedestal. That's not all, as players will also be able to encounter a new boss named Mega Spud, Potatolord of the Fried Legion.

One of the most requested items has been a Frying Table, and the snapshot allows players to craft an array of items using Poisonous Potatoes. However, the biggest highlight of the update has been the gadgets. Minecraft fans have been asking for a grappling hook for quite a while now, and this update turns it into reality by adding the Lashing Potato. There is also a Potato Peeler that deals extra damage to Potato mobs. Like every year, Mojang Studios has once again impressed the community with how expansive the April Fool's update is. However, this time around, fans are a bit disappointed considering that several of their much-requested items have been added as part of a prank, but were never released in Minecraft.

As standard, snapshots only include bug features and technical changes. To play with new experimental features, including future content changes, you must turn on experimental features. This should be done when you create the world, as they cannot be turned on or off later. To enable experimental features:
