@Lunasorcery on Twitter shared an interesting string specifying how she as of late saved a piece of Minecraft history.
The first Java work of Minecraft was delivered back in 2009 and afterward went through numerous phases of advancement and delivery. In 2010 the game was in its alpha stage, and updates were incessant and some of the time delivered with no notice. These mysterious updates were normally dropped on Fridays. Be that as it may, on September 18, 2010, a mysterious update was delivered on Saturday. This was the 1.1.1 update, and keeping in mind that it presented some significant things, such as casting poles and dodging, it likewise added a terrible bug that could prompt a dim screen. So Mojang fixed the bug and immediately refreshed the game. Rapidly, truth be told. As per Minecraft specialists and chroniclers, alpha 1.1.1 was simply accessible to download for 3 hours and 25 minutes. After that, 1.1.2 was delivered, which fixed the bug.
As of late, finding a genuine adaptation of this update has been incomprehensible because of its unexpected nature and the short open-door players needed to download it. Additionally, it was messed with; such countless people some time ago erased it and continued on to the better 1.1.2 update. So individuals at the Omniarchive, a gathering committed to finding and saving old adaptations of Minecraft games, had almost surrendered any desire for finding 1.1.1.

The tweet from September 18, 2010, was basically her expressing that there was another form of Minecraft out. Yet, the circumstance of the tweet grabbed somebody's attention. Could she have downloaded the uncommon 1.1.1 form of the game? Assuming this is the case, did she actually have it? After disregarding the primary message and getting some information about the update, Luna reacted on June 25 to a subsequent message and chose to go burrowing around to check whether she had saved that uncommon update.
