Yea, it's the reason I ended up posting it. I wish when I walked by you guys the world would change that color.

In other news, I don't want to start a flower show. It's not fun gathering flowers.

In Mojang ten young-looking RPGs adore working surrounded by computers. The wall of this place in a district of Stockholm (Sweden) decorates a design submitted by a fan as thanks to the creators of Minecraft. Such is the passion that lifts the game of coarse visual, large blocks of pixilated textures, as if from the prehistory of the game. Minecraft , which has engaged in six million people, is a phenomenon of independent leisure.

 

Each batch of Minecraft begins in a randomly generated world is available on various natural resources such as trees or animals to be collected and combined to make weapons, torches and other defenses. At sunset, the stage is full of monsters with evil intentions. The player has to survive the night using the talent and tools developed during the day. Minecraft is an explosive mix of strategy, creativity and action.

 

Markus Persson, alias Notch , four weeks after writing the first line of code, hung the Alpha version and a link TIGSource forum dedicated to independent games. The game was all the rage and the fans began to give Markus ideas for improvement.

 

"When Mark launched the game, basically shared a link on a forum," said Carl Manneh, executive director Mojang. "He established a close contact with the community and as people started to play also requested new features. We will build it, can you add this type of blocks? Alpha version cost 10 euros, the beta 15 and the final 20 euros . One of the keys to success is that they can buy it in the early stages of development and get it cheaper. "

 

Minecraft.net anywhere there is a version that can be accessed free. "We have six and a half million registered users and 50,000 are added every day. Currently, 1.9 million aficionandos are extra." Profits exceed 24 billion euros.

 

"It took me a while to realize even when the game began to sell very well," said Persson. "I thought it would cease to be sold from one day to another, but a year ago I began to realize that this was going to be big."

 

One of the keys to success is its passionate community Minecraft. On YouTube you can find almost a million and a half of videos and tutorials created by the players. Frikis authentic design developed scenarios that include replicas of rockets and planets.

 

Another example of the rush to this game is the documentary Minecraft: The Story of Mojang funding has achieved more than $ 210,000 anonymous fan via kickstart, a website specializing in raising money for specific purposes ( crowdfunding). Two People delivered more than $ 10,000 each to earn the right to attend the opening party Mojang offices.

 

Manneh as "the key to success lies in the creative side. Activa basic to human nature. We like to create and build things and Minecraft is a game where you can create anything you can imagine. We're amazed at what people do. "

I think the server needs a restart. Its gone all laggy.

looks like this will break boatavators, but thank fuck for the 'buttons not working when too close in a cart' fix. this is a handy one for me. toplayer blocks thing might have implications for some buildings on watmm. of course glitch boosters = no more now. couple of small fixes which i reckon will improve lag... and there's a texturepack fix in there i think murve will be happy with

don't know why he continues to think of things like water ladders, boatavators, and track boosters as being bugs. They are easter eggs for the knowledgeable crafter that make the game fun. Removing them reduces the fun of the game.

re: boosters - notch (well, jeb originally, tbh) provided an alternative. it was a bit crappy in the original implementation but come 1.6, it's not. i can get behind that one. especially because all my rails use 'proper' boosters not glitch ones.

let me put it like this; you can use up 8-10 blocks and a shitload of resources (4-5 blocks on each side of your track + 8-10 rails + 2 carts) for a glitch booster. or you can make a booster (6 gold, 1 stick, 1 redstone), bury a redstone torch underneath it (1 redstone, 1 stick), and take up essentially zero space besides the rail. i know which one i want.

well sure I agree, but my point is, why not leave those things in? They don't harm anyone's gameplay experience, which is my definition of a bug. In fact, some of my most cherished memories of other games were the "bugs", not the game itself. For example that racing game where you could fly up and bounce around in the atmosphere, forgot the name of it, someone posted it a while back. Plus water ladders are way fucking useful. They still work now, just barely, hope he doesn't break them for good in the coming update.

well it doesn't look like it will, just they're not as fast

and that game was stunts, i believe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhOHJ9zw3rM

one of the programmers recently did an IamA on reddit, was fuckin awesome. all a lot of people wanted to talk about was the bugs

yes! Stunts, that was a lot of fun.

By the way, since I'm in Vietnam I'm on the server again, and damn you guys sure have ADD - way too many ruins and half-finished projects. Clean up yo' mess, guys!

Franklin is doing some cool shit though, that eye is amazing!

Who did the museum of Minecraft? I got a big lol from that...

the mine simulator? that's petes. it's hilarious.
