Minecraft players sick of emerging from the rocky depths into the dangerous, deadly night, you should maybe be doing a little less mining. That or build yourself whatâs essentially a Minecraft alarm clock.
This âtimer projectâ servers as a real-world representation of Minecraftâs sun, allowing players to keep track of the time of day without having to run any kind of program or use an accessory like Minecraft Canary
The clock uses a netduino, a kind of electronics âSwiss army knifeâ, to show players what time of day it is above ground through a series of pulsing lights. Once the light stops blinking, itâs night time, and youâd best hope youâre indoors by then.
Itâs not pretty, and a pulsing light going from white to yellow to nothing would have been classier, but still, itâs a neat little tool for serious Minecraft players!
