Has anyone worked out a way to turn the Minecraft player into a Logo-like turtle? That is, drive all interactions (walk a step, jump, extended jump , hit, use, hear zombie moan from the sound effects subtitling, etc.) from within Python? The Raspberry Jam mod comes close, but actual movement of the player is not in the API.

There are a ton of children who would get right into such an updated Logo turtle.




ComputerCraft has turtles you can program in-game in lua. Eg http://computercraftedu.com/.

IIRC FreeMiner may be better in this respect? Minecraft had fallen out of vogue with my kids so not played around with this for a while.


You should take a look at a Minecraft mod called Computercraft.
