Creepers are fictional enemies that attack by exploding near their target, and are also one of the main antagonists of the video game Minecraft. Creepers were added to Minecraft in an alpha update of the game on August 31, 2009.[1] Since their release, the Creeper has become a widely recognized icon for Minecraft, and featured prominently in Minecraftmerchandise and advertising.[2]
History[edit]
Creepers were created as a result of a coding error in the alpha stages of Minecraft's development.[3]Minecraft creator Markus Persson developed the Creeper around the odd appearance of the pig model. Persson mixed the dimensions up, with the length and height being swapped. This, combined with the AI of looking at the player, led to the Creeper becoming a hostile mob.[4][5][1][6] Early behavior had creepers able to inflict melee damage on the player and exploding only after being killed, however this was quickly changed to more stealth-oriented behavior that had them attack with a timed release of an explosion, which is defused upon death.
