How To Play

     Watch your blue and red selectors.  They show where you will build or break blocks, respectively.  Crafting is very similar to Minecraft: put items into the crafting table to craft them. Right-click on the crafting table to open it and your inventory. The crafting templates are the same for the items we chose to put in.  Here are a few recipes to try.  Collect better matierals (wood->stone->iron->diamond) to create better tools.  Pickaxes are the only tools which can break stone.  Axes break wood tiles faster, and shovels break dirt, sand, and leaves very quickly.

w = wood, p = plank, x = sticks, s = stone, i = stone, d = diamond

[w _]

[_ _] --> p x 4

[p p]

[p p] --> crafting table

[p _]

[p _] ---> sticks x 4

[x _ x]

[x x x] ---> ladder x 4

[x _ x]

[w w w]

[_ x _] ---> wooden pickaxe

Funny you should say that. I made this game for a game jam which Notch suggested people make Minecraft demakes in 2010 way before minicraft was "taken". If you're curious, check out the source here: https://github.com/jleahey/Minicraft

I experienced the exact same problem as Fenyx. It is lacking quite a bit.
Even though it is a demake, it's a fairly bare one, and doesn't really add anything new that hasn't been done already. (there are already quite a few 2D minecraft clones)
Apart from that, it's a fairly clean cut game. (aside from the annoying looping music and "water walking" :P)

This game did come out July 2010. Before SMP and a lot of new Minecraft clones/features. I just started updating it again, feel free to come on over to the github and add something you think is missing!

Eh... It's not horrible, but as a platformer it is pretty bad, as an MC clone it is pretty bad due to the lack of different materials to build with (only cobble, dirt, and sand), and as far as finding materials, when I found diamonds a bug killed them somehow. :/

Try Quick Play twice in a row. Sometimes it doesn't work right the first time. Also I do believe a "1" is an inappropriate rating for having never played my game.

Thanks,

This is awesome.


Nowadays,its been said that Terraria is a 2D copy of minecraft.
Few know about this game [which i myself found about only a few days ago] and how it manages to remake 70% of what minecraft actually is.

Too bad you havent released any updates on it.
Too bad i have no idea about coding and stuff to help with the development...cause i would love to see this game rise more than it currently is.
