Apple Park nu ook in Minecraft Edition
De eerste werknemers van Apple zullen deze maand hun intrek nemen in Apple Park, de nieuwe campus van Apple. Daarvan zien we regelmatig videos's voorbij komen, allemaal onvermijdelijk voorzien van een - meestal rustgevend - muziekje.
Minecraft-fanaat Alex Westerlund heeft in deze game het nieuwe Apple Park nu compleet nagebouwd. In totaal kostte hem dat maar liefst 413 uur werk, waarvan 166 in de afgelopen maand. Het resultaat mag er zijn, ook omdat hij de video ervan helemaal in de stijl van de drone-filmpjes die we tot nu toe gezien hebben heeft uitgevoerd.
Inderdaad, dus ook met het bijbehorende rustgevende muziekje.
My humble tribute to Apple, I present Apple Park! After 413 hours of work starting in December 2015, here is the result. It started out as a simple project, something to do when I binged on Minecraft, but it slowly evolved into a full time project, with over 166 hours of work put in during the final month of the project.
What drew me to this is my appreciation for end to end design and a crazy idea in my head that said 'Hey let's build the world's curviest campus in a video game based on cubes.'
- It's a 1:1 full scale replica
- This is built entirely by hand (no mods)
- It's terrain-accurate, based off topographical maps of Cupertino and the official landscaping plans
- Each hill, path, and orchard are true to the construction plans, down the the placement of each handcrafted cherry tree.
- All the general areas are fully furnished (so, the fitness center, atriums, cafes, maintenance building, Glendenning Barn, everywhere but the office space)
- There are 28 cafes spread throughout main building, plus 2 outdoor cafes, 1 (presumably healthy) cafe in the fitness center, and of course the main cafeteria.
- A megabuild is any Minecraft build utilizing at least one million blocks (people kept wondering).
