Do you like Minecraft? Do you think you have what it takes to be a developer with Mojang? Today's interview touches on this very subject! We had a chance to sit down with Carl Manneh - CEO of Mojang - to discuss their recent employment openings, the development direction of Minecraft & Scrolls, and a surprise about the upcoming adventure side-scroller, Cobalt!
Carl gave us a solid break-down of the kind of developer they are looking for; without giving too much of it away, we can say that applicants must have the ability to work in a dynamic environment, and have a healthy love for games. Later on, we discussed the future direction of Scrolls, as well as multi-platform support for Mojang's games. Finally, Carl generously offered a bit of secret information about Cobalt - we don't want to spoil it, so check it out!

They talk about Scrolls and Cobalt too much. Apparently they don't realize that we only care about minecraft. More platforms for it, isn't very interesting anymore either. A real fan would buy a computer.
Oh My God. I wish I was

You guys do realize don't you that there will be another war about the game name.. Again.... There is already a game named Cobalt, or Open Cobalt if you will..
Its a Virtual World game and its been around for years. I used to play with it back a couple years ago. They are slowly improving it, but its actually more or less of a collage experiment that has been going on for several years now. And the lead developer is the first person to make an actual bootable Operating System that was a Virtual World back in 2000.
