Minicraft is a 2D top down adventure game, roughly based off of Minecraft, created by Notch for the 22nd Lundum dare competition. The primary objective of the game is to kill the Air Wizard, ensuring the player is completely alone.

Gameplay
Players spawn in a series of islands, with a border at the edges of the map. The player must gather materials to craft tools to mine ore, chop trees, farm wheat, dig pits, and stab zombies and slimes. Minicraft features multiple levels, many of which are featured in Minecraft or may be featured in the future. These levels are: The Overworld, Mines, Deep Mines, Nether and Sky. Minicraft also has 5 biomes, exclusive to the Overworld, which are: Forest, Meadow, Desert, Mountain and Ocean.

Items
Minecraft features a large collection of items, most of which are almost identical in function to their minecraft counterparts. All items when used or swung, regardless of whether or not they collide with a target or are used correctly, will consume at least 1 stamina piece. All items in a player's inventory can be viewed by pressing the menu key.

Tools
There are 5 types of tools, and they can be made from 5 different tiers of materials. When a tool is used for its correct use, it will deal additional damage to the target (with the exception of hoes and shovels) but will consume additional stamina upon doing so. Higher grade tools will consume less stamina.

Shovel
The shovel can be used to remove sand or dirt from the ground, and can be used on dirt to create a hole. Holes cannot be traversed by mobs, and will fill with water if there is a water tile adjacent to it. Shovels are used to collect sand and dirt, and occaisionally seeds from grass.

Pick
Picks deals bonus damage to stone, and are required to mine ores.

Axe
An axe will deal additional damage to trees. A stone axe will likely destroy a tree in one strike, while iron or better will garuntee an instant fell.

Hoe
The hoe is required to till dirt. Dirt can be tilled even if it has grass on it. Tilled grass may yield seeds. Tilled tiles are the only place seeds can be planted.

Useable
Useable items are items which are used when the action key is pressed.

Acorn
When used, an acorn will be placed on a tile, and given time, will become a tree. Acorns are dropped from trees, and have a brown, ovular appearance.

Materials
Materials are items which only purpose is to create other items. These include:
 * Glass
 * Cloth
 * Slime
 * Stone
 * Wood

Entities
Entities are objects that can move, and serve various interactable purposes. Entities can be split into two groups: objects and mobs.

Objects
Objects are craftable items that can be picked up and carried with the Pow Glove. They may also be pushed by the player, albeit slowly, and will obstruct all enemy mob movement.

Crafting Bench
The player starts the game with a crafting bench in their inventory. It costs 20 wood and can be used to create the majority of the player's starting items. A crafting bench can be used to make:
 * Crafting Bench
 * Oven
 * Furnace
 * Anvil
 * Lantern
 * All Wooden Tools
 * All Stone Tools

If the player loses their crafting table and does not have another made, they reach a paradox and cannot progress. A crafting table requires another crafting table to make.

Tiles
Tiles make up the game world, and have many different attributes.

Mobs
Although there are peaceful mobs in minecraft, there are only hostile mobs in minicraft.

Slime
The slime is a rather slow moving mob, and the green variants deal only 1 damage. A slime when killed drops 0-2 slime. It also has the least health in the game. Green slimes can be found in the Overworld and the Mines.

Zombie
Apart from the slime, the zombie is the only other mob to appear in the overworld. It shares the same sprite as the player except green in appearance. It makes a direct route for the player, and deals 2 damage per hit. The zombie is slightly more hardier than the slime. Zombies when killed drop 0-2 Cloth.
