0x10c - Notch's New Game!
MegaScientifical:
Checking Notch's twitter, it turns out he's half-assing the game's physics. Really sounds bad. Of course scripting out physics makes it run faster, but the fancy math is what makes it actually physics and not just scripted action movement. Having it all predefined and flat will stand out, especially in later stages as you build on the game. And since this is one of the base things, he'll have the hardest loving time correcting it later on. I hope he goes back to 'fancy math' before it is too late.

The textures the minecraft blocks currently have were supposed to be placeholders.

Basically, the game will have almost no textures, and he is trying to make it look like how they'd imagine the future in the 1980s.

I couldn't understand 80% of what they said, isn't there a video made by people who aren't trying to be edgy that you could use instead?
