I made a start on a new modification to my guardian farm in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world. Hopefully this one will make a real difference.

I tried out Minecraft 1.21.11 with my mods finally updated, but somehow the hitbox for the block my crosshair is on is not showing up, so it's back to 1.21.10.
Meanwhile, I found a setting that fixes the delayed shaking-off when wolves exit the water, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.

I did it! I finished LIMBO!
I was thinking with only six chapters to go it would take a shorter time than most sessions in this playthrough, but the last few puzzles were real puzzlers. But I got it, and got the kid to his sister (or I think that's who it is.)
Re-post to YouTube tomorrow.

Will this be the exciting conclusion to my first play-through of LIMBO? Or will I get stuck for over an hour on one of the final puzzles?

We'll see how I'm feeling tonight.

The modifications to my guardian farm did not have the results I was hoping for. What the Minecraft wiki says about guardian spawning with vs without a view of the sky evidently affects where they spawn rather than how much or how quickly.
But there are other factors I might exploit later.

Okay, so I didn't actually go up into the big scary tower in the latest session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, because I know what's up in them. And knowing is half the battle.
But I did finish the westerly leg of my expedition and start the northerly leg. And I have ideas for when that's done.
