Minicraft gets even smaller, ported to Android
Minicraft, the game created by Minecraft man Markus "Notch" Persson in 48 hours last year, has been ported to Android devices. It's not an official port of the game, but has instead been (ahem) crafted by Folstad Consulting. The developer implemented touchscreen controls with optional keyboard controls for compatible devices. If you missed Minicraft the first time around, it's essentially a miniaturized, 2D version of Minecraft. Though it lacks many features found in the bigger Minecraft, it does let you slay enemies, harvest resources and craft items. If you need some crafting on the go, you can download Minicraft for free from the Android Market.
Sequel to Notch's 48-hour game gets a new name: MiniTale [update]
Way back in December last year, Minecraft developer Notch participated in a 48-hour game-programming competition, and he live-streamed the whole thing. He made a Harvest Moon-inspired zombie game, tentatively titled Minicraft. He has renamed that game MiniTale, with more info to come here and here. Update: It's the sequel to Minicraft that Notch has renamed MiniTale. We apologize for the small confusion.
