Minecraft | J@N | 10.12.10

In the latest internet gaming craze, an indie developer has managed to capture the hearts and minds of thousands of addicted gamers by creating a charmingly low-resolution gaming phenomenon known as Minecraft. We’re here to tell you all about the reasons this game is quickly becoming a giant in the world of gaming, despite lacking the marketing and development clout of a higher-budget game.

Tonight’s Show Notes & Download Below:

Developed by a 1-man dev team Markus Persson (“Notch”) from Sweden.  Inspired by games like Infiniminer, Dwarf Fortress and Garry’s Mod, the game is basically a building simulator that also includes (in the paid-for Alpha version) a survival mode, environmental hazards, crafting and more.

There’s a free Java version called “creative mode” that’s just for building.
