=== Blocks ===
; [[Minecraft:Bedrock]]
: Unobtainable to the [[Minecraft:player]].
; [[Minecraft:Sand]] and [[Minecraft:gravel]]
: Only appear naturally in one block-thick beach (usually by water or in the middle of a landscape). These beaches were always at and below ocean level.
: Rather than falling by turning into a falling block entity, sand instantly appears at the lowest point it could go when placed above an air block, without any sort of falling animation.
; [[Minecraft:Gold ore]]
: Found in higher elevations, gold ore was often found in exposed surface-level blobs.
; [[Minecraft:Iron ore]]
: Spawns in huge blobs, sometimes big enough to protrude into 3 caverns, and can have as many as 167 ores.
; [[Minecraft:Coal ore]]
:
; [[Minecraft:Log]]s and [[Minecraft:leaves]]
: Spawn as trees found around the map.
; [[Minecraft:Water]] and [[Minecraft:lava]]
: In the early water test, water rendered as an opaque block. With the addition of lava, both liquids rendered as transparent. Lava was later changed to opaque.
; [[Minecraft:World generation]]
: An infinite ocean surrounds the map.
: "Huge" level size.

== Trivia ==
* Once during [[Minecraft:Java Edition Classic 0.0.14a/Development|development of 0.0.14a]], Notch tested vertex offsets of blocks, but was not satisfied, likely in part due to a graphic bug which showed block previews and highlights as cubes.<ref>{{ytl|EplEzRvZPBA|Vertex and color offsets in minecraft|Nizzotch|May 25, 2009|archive=bj4eZcldAEo}}</ref>
