I have this idea for a Minecraft SMP series consisting of myself, Mumbo Jumbo, Grian, LDShadowLady, GoodTimesWithScar, Martyn Littlewood, other players of Hermitcraft and the Life series, Dracheneks, Agma Schwa, and their friends, where each season, a group of the starting players become stranded somewhere disconnected from the rest of society and must strive for survival. At one point, a number of them would come across indigenous inhabitants who speak a language none of them are familiar with. The goal is to figure out their language and customs on their terms. Inspiration for this series is thanks to this video that Joshua Rudder of NativLang animated to tell people about his First Contact Survival Kit.
The language those people are speaking could perhaps be a conlang, though it would have to be naturalistic. There could be a different conlang or conlang family for each season.
Players:
Kaden Vanciel(via Xbox One)
Mumbo (Jumbo)
Grian
Smallishbeans
Martyn Littlewood
LDShadowLady
GoodTimesWithScar
Various other Life series and Hermitcraft players
Dracheneks
Agma Schwa
Friends of theirs
I might need to seek out other players. Maybe some from Hermitcraft that haven't been involved with any season of the Life series at all. And I'll introduce some context in other chapters. I will also flesh out some ideas for conlangs for the players to figure out how to speak. Grian might be able to figure out the Elvish languages if he, though not Welsh, knows to pronounce the lateral fricatives correctly.
