Minicraft

Minicraft is a 2D top-down action game made by Markus "Notch" Persson, for the 2011 48-hour game programming contest Ludum Dare 22. The game was released on December 19, 2011 and never got any official updates.

After its discontinuation, it became open source, and its popularity increased as many players created their own versions of Minicraft. A modded version of the game is being maintained by a small community created by a user named Shylor, who created the site playminicraft.com to keep the Minicraft community alive.

Gameplay
The gameplay is in some ways similar to Minecraft in that the player must gather materials to craft tools to mine ore, chop trees, farm wheat, dig pits, and stab zombies and slimes. In order to win they must defeat the boss, the Air Wizard. Players spawn in a series of islands, with a border at the edges of the map. Minicraft has 5 biomes, exclusive to the Overworld, which are: Forest, Meadow, Desert, Mountain and Ocean.
