He totally copied the Mass Effect title

Also, "a game ending that makes sense" made me chuckle

 

[Kitzbuhel]

He totally copied the Mass Effect title

No way? I thought he copied the Skyrim title?

 

[Shadowsmalls]

Nice, this looks good.
Looking forward to this.
Happy April Fool's

Minecraft has an ending?? Lol defeating the dragon can hardly be called an ending jus because it has credits at the end.

Saying that, I am looking forward to this new release. Be interesting how it turns out

 

[Backstay]

April fools right?

 

[Danie_D]

No way? I thought he copied the Skyrim title?

Your sarcasm is unnecessary -_-

The only reason I brought it up is that Mojang just finished a lawsuit with Bethesda over Scrolls, and now he has a new game where he copied the title style from another game. Not a great decision.

April fools right?

Obviously

Law suit in 3.. 2.. 1..

 

[VanGarrett]

Hahaha! they are all parodies! Although I must admit I think Steve Online did sound like a winner!

 

[Kaies]

If only...

The game he is working on is real. The title is April Fools.

from what I see from the site it is extremly clever what he is wanting to achieve. Well what I think he is going to do.

Not quite sure how to put what I think it looks like, but on first glance it seems like a mix of a single player game with Fable type multiplayer and an MMO type thingy.
And from the .txt file on there and what I have found on the internet it will have its own ingame computer language (think ComputerCraft but a lot better).



If it looks good and if we are able to create our own server, can we?

Its already been announced by Notch that it will be subscription based. Therefore they will be hosting their own servers.
