Minecraft developer teases ‘secret feature’ that’s ‘like Mario 64’

Minecraft is never finished, and one of its developers is looking at a Nintendo classic for inspiration.

Minecraft: Pocket Edition developer Tommaso Checchi at Mojang posted a cryptic tweet this morning that claims the PC version is getting something new. This “secret feature,” as Checchi puts it, is “great because it’s like Mario 64.” That’s all that Checchi said about the addition, other than pointing out that lead developer Jens Bergensten is the one implementing it. We don’t know what the addition is — although we’ve asked Mojang with the hopes that it’ll tell us.
