Ya, like its been said, this price has been steady for a while now, but either way its good publicity...although has anyone checked the stats page...its ridiculous how many people are buying this each day as it is.

Touché.

This is confusing, the game is already 50% off because it is in alpha, but now it is getting another 50% off.

The game is surprisingly deep and the beauty is that it's an evolving product with new additions being made frequently. I just found a natural underground stream and lava flow in the same area, so I plan to start mining obsidian. Eventually I cam set up a mine cart system to get everything to the surface. Obsidian is one of the rarest elements in the game because you have to create it by mixing water and lava and then mine it without falling into the lava or dropping the chunks in. Good times ...

I bet you were the kind of kid to pull out your dick and piss in the swimming pool while others were using it.

BTW, you want to see at night? Torches.

No. I was just pointing out that it's 50% off cos it's a great game and has been getting lots of publicity elsewhere, but there was no post on here about it.

I bought it the other day. It's about $14 USD if that wasn't mentioned yet. It's an insanely addictive game. In fact, I don't even play multiplayer on it but I bought it just because I liked the free version so much.

I love this game. The update coming this October is going to fun! A really big update to single, and hopefully multi-player as well!

It gets tons of publicity. For example, look at the stats page. 9,000 copies sold in the last 24 hours.

I'd like to check this one out, but I'm waiting for it to hit Steam eventually

Got addicted from a co-worker, wish multiplayer will remove the invincibility health so it can be more dangerous. Been getting a lot of weird dreams, now I build grids for my castle and actually design floor maps and room dimensions. I don't know what this is turning me into.

Probably the best indie game I've ever played. I'm currently building a castle embedded in a mountain. So far I have 2 waterfalls running down the sides of the mountains creating a moat. ITS GONNA BE AWESOME!

Does this game have a discussion section on CAG? Also, can people host games in multiplayer, I haven't tried it but it would be awesome to have a CAG server. I predict this game is only going to get bigger and more popular as it moves into Beta and a final product.

there's a windows logo for the thread.
just thought i'd mention that only java is required and minecraft runs in linux, etc.

Oh man that is just funny! Still- its ok to hear if somebody didn't like the game!

Yeah ... so ... when creating a lava pit in order to farm obsidian, be sure not to step backwards into said pit wearing all your gear and carrying 2 hours worth of iron, 5 diamonds and a bunch of other stuff.

Just a pro-tip there folks ...

... I've passed up tons of Obsidian then. I thought those blocks were the 'bottom of the world', so to speak...but I've run into the grates as well. If it takes 15 minutes to mine and it can't make anything yet, however, then I'm kinda glad I didn't. =X I'd hate for all that effort to be destroyed in a possible future update.

Yo ectrane...

If you're fast enough and know exactly where you died, you can recover most (if not all) of your items.

I meant among the CAG's. I didn't think this was a "deal" so to speak only because it's never been any more expensive, but giving the thread reps cuz it will (and has) gotten other CAGs in on the game =)

btw that fire video was hilarious
