This is a game I'm currently developing, using Game Maker 8 Pro. I will try to make an exact 2D replica of Minecraft, of course, lacking a few features, but it will hopefully feel similar. Current features are:
Version 0.0.19a:
Changelog:
-Added working random terrain generation
-Trees are now generated
-Added inventory (Just for shows, doesn't work properly yet!)
-Added hotbar on the bottom of the screen
Bugs:
*For some reason, there's no gravity above the highest point of the map
*You will most likely spawn inside of a tree
*Trees suddenly pops out sometimes
*Glass is placed instead of sapling
*Water is placed instead of background sapling
Controls:
Movement: A/D
Jump: Spacebar
Place blocks: Right mouse button
Destroy blocks: Left mouse button
Place blocks in background: Right mouse button + Shift
1-9 digits/Mouse scroller: Cycle through blocks
Generate a new level: N
Save level: S
Currently working on:
-Lava generating above bedrock
-Water generation
-Full inventory
I might release version 0.0.12a pretty soon. I just finished a decent lighting engine, along with a decent map generator. There's still a few bugs to iron out, though.
Currently, I'm working on water and lava. After that, I'll probably release an early demo.
Just remember that you can't use the exact same textures as Minecraft.
Erm...it's a 2D replica. I'm gonna use the same textures. It might seem unoriginal, but I want it to look like Minecraft-y, therefore I'm using the same textures.
Oh, and I've been planning on making a clone instead, which will use custom textures, but I'll see how that will go...
Well, probably, but this isn't a "hey, play my game and make it famous" game, it's actually just a coding exercise I'm doing. Either way, I started working on this before I noticed Bubatu's game, so I'm still doing it, just for the funz ^^
Nice start. TERRAIN GENERATION? YES. I still can't figue out how to do that! Given, I'm trying to do it in 3d so yeah. XD
Bugs:
Hands get stuck on objects
Maybe some other things! That I have yet to find!
AND, WEIRD control layout. Try WASD INSTEAD OF ^<v> and your good.

Project is a little on hold right now, but since I actually just got some feedback, I may start working more on it.
I have a new terrain generation idea, which won't make such a messy terrain.
And, I'll get the controls changed for next (hopefully upcoming) update.

Use Mediafire or Dropbox
I'll probably upload it again on one of those sites.
Not sure if I'm gonna add stuff like crafting and monsters yet. I thought about making a Creative mode at first, then worry about survival stuff later. These plans might change, though.
Oh, and yes, I'm gonna make it so that you move with A and D.
If you need help tell me. I think I know how to make the blocks just get less visible instead of black. And maybe help with collisions if I can see them.

Although I'm pretty sure I'm aware of most of them, please report any bugs you run into.

I uploaded it to Yoyogames, which scanned it for viruses. It's completely free of viruses.
Now, I'll just wait for someone to discover this again...
