95 pages later this made two point five billion dollars

inspiring imo

I still think it's a false hype created by the advertisement mafia because people need to have hope and need to think they can achieve something with their work and make money, otherwise they'd never open up their wallets. There were zero "true" success stories among indie game devs for quite some time, advertisement machinery didn't make much from them as they were pretty down losing all their hard-earned money on advertisements and marketing campaigns that didn't work at all. This Minecraft success comes in just the right moment. Indie game devs are opening up their wallets, marketing and advertisement machinery is registering booming profits! It's all going as planned

dragonmaw banned codergames already lol. honestly i would feel bad about locking a HISTORICALLY IMPORTANT thread like this because of 1 post.

[Impmaster]

Why not preserve it as history? It's not as if people have much more to say about the Minecraft alpha.

It's great to see how far Minecraft has come, from a simple game with nothing but caves, physics and a couple of blocks, to a massive hit. I remember the time that I first started playing in late 2011/early 2012 (on pocket edition) and in mid-July 2013 (when I bought my PC account), and I'm still playing addictively. And I'm still shocked by the fact that I was only seven years old when the game was first released (AKA when this thread was created).

I think we should sticky this thread as a monument in history

Crazy how life works sometimes.

  what have you been doing the past 6 years or more. Minecraft has become a huge hit look it up. To buy an account its like $27 (for USD) and you can download the launcher for it to play (after buying though) at minecraft.net
The game has changed dude. The game has changed.

Click to launch applet!

It's an alpha version, so there might be crashes. You can read some background and insight on my blog available from the game page.

The main inspiration for this game is Infiniminer, but it's going to move in a more Dwarf Fortress way, gameplay wise. =)

May I just add that the applet link is also broken so I guess the game is not being developed anymore.

[Silbereisen]

that's a shame.

looks like dragon quest is making millions. i bet this notch fella hates himself for not finishing his gam and other people getting rich off his idea.
