Additions
Blocks

- Used for generating custom mines.
- Used to enter already generated mines after making a new mine with the Mine Crafter.
- Can only be found on a Mine Exit structure or on top of a Mine Crafter or Mine Revisitor.

Items
- The item has a similar texture and use to an Eyes of Ender, except they help to locate the exit portal for each mine. They are crafted by surrounding one iron ingot with eight copper ingots in a crafting table. You unlock the advancement "Spy Eye" for crafting one. Upon using an Eye of Exit, it will damage you (unless you have the upgrade that prevents that), and floats in the air to indicate the direction of the exit portal.
- The Eye of Exit replaces the Eye of Ender in all crafting recipes.
- Used to open the Shimmering Doors.
- Winning a special mine grants one key to a player.
- Acts as a music disc.
- The world "disc" after putting all the ingredients in the Mine Crafter.

- Used inside the Dimension Control block to set the look of the sky in the current dimension.
- When worn, make the player run faster based on how long jump is held, and then gives a proportional boost when jump is released.
- A meter similar to the horse jump meter replaces the XP bar to show the current speed boost.
Mobs
- Modified boss version of the ghast with a slightly different texture.
- Shoots a burst of 3 fireballs at the player.
Player Unlocks
- Added "Player Unlocks" which are abilities the player can unlock using XP levels.
- The Player Unlocks menu can be opened using the 'U' button or the icon in the top right of the player's inventory.
- The Player Unlocks menu uses the same GUI as advancements

Changes
This snapshot completely overhauls the game. Instead of spawning in the overworld, upon creating a world the player spawns in a hub dimension centered around a Mine Crafter. On interacting with the mine crafter, a window similar to that of a crafting table opens and the player can create “Mines”, sub worlds with world presets, a few of which the player spawns with, and the rest of which can be unlocked by completing various activities within mines. The player can enter these, and on leaving is given experience based on the blocks they have in their inventory on leaving. The inventory is separate between different mines. The player can use experience to buy upgrades (called “unlocks” in game), such as more inventory space. Other changes include:
- The player cannot craft normally until the ability is unlocked and must rely on a crafter to craft items
- Worlds can no longer be created in Creative, but the gamemode can still be selected with commands
- The main menu logo has been changed to "Craftmine: Java Edition"
Trivia
- This version has no panorama, making it the first version since Beta 1.7.3 to lack one.
- The loading screen is black by default.
- "Doors yearn for the keys!" may be a reference to a line from a trailer for A Minecraft Movie, where Jack Black (Steve) says: "As a child, I yearned for the mines."
- The Angry Ghast’s shooting of three fireballs resembles the Giant Ghast in Minecraft Story Mode.
- The menu is a reference to The Matrix.
- The text that appears in the background is in Illageralt, the language that appears often in Minecraft Dungeons.
- The End portal frame textures exist in the game files despite them being removed from this version.
