I know a few others on # and I have been playing this a decent amount.

What are your personal experiences with the game - it seems to be quite the impressive game experience, especially for indie games.

I've been loving it very much; I'm currently working on connecting the first house I built, based within a hill, having long 2x2xn tunnels going for ages with the occasional torch and the second house, which currently only has two floors. I am then planning to create a second basement and a nice attic/watchtower.

I'm about to download this, what's the difference between single player and multi player?

One's alone, and one's with other people :p

Multiplayer also doesn't work 100% yet I think, but it's getting there.

Best game EVER. Seriously, if you haven't bought Minecraft yet, do it.

Make sure you don't base your judgment off of the free Classic mode, it's nowhere near as fun as Alpha.

This and this.
I've talked to Notch, the developer, on the main minecraft IRC channel and he's got stuff really rolling as far as updates are concerned.

Yes, classic is like just playing with blocks like a three year old.
Alpha is like Sim City+Zelda + alskdjfpoiaue;rlkjsafoijawesome.
 
These are just some pics/vids of some parts of my world. Here's my skin: http://minecraft.net/skin/skin.jsp?user=Ruro

'World3'

My first world that I actually did stuff in. I refer to this one as my 'peaceful' world as I only played in peaceful mode. when doing stuff.

'World4'

This is my current world that I'm working in. I've played this entirely in 'normal' mode. I haven't played for long so my only real accomplishment was my water elevator:

Also, here's a zombie dungeon with a creeper and a giant slime in it :D

EDIT: Found a few more pics. Too lazy to take any more atm.

My friends talk about this all day... I pretty much have to get it just to fit in :P
 
I tried playing a bit. The tutorial game wasn't working, so I just jumped in and tried to figure things out as I go. So far I've just been punching animals until they die and collecting the stuff they drop. I seem to be holding a block but I'm not sure how I got it, what to do with it, or where to get more. Night is about to fall and I've heard that's when the monsters come out. I'm going to die :)

I suggest watching some tutorial. I reccomend X's Adventures in Minecraft.

Also you can find the complete crafting list here. It may seem like 'cheating' at first, but trust me, it makes the game a lot more fun when you know how to make stuff.


Also my latest creation :D:

I managed to actually get minecraft working, but whenever I press a mouse button while not in the inventory it opens the menu. It's also won't let me place a workbench and is really slow. :(
 
I was just playing classic because I can't buy it yet. It seems pretty fun. I did this stuff in a few hours.

My friend showed me this a few days ago. I now play alpha for hours on end. I keep dying and losing everything though :( Perhaps I shouldn't wander too far away from my spawn place. I hate the exploding guys, they have destroyed an underground fortress and a castle of mine!

Just to let you know, the paid, alpha version is completely different. And by completely different, I mean much much much more fun and stuff actually works correctly.

For all of you people that are having problems with the game:
It doesn't seem to like Chrome. Try Mozilla. That seems to work the best.

Or buy the game and download it.
