FAQ:

- I get asked a lot on how to place blocks, use the crafting table, or craft something.
An easy answer is that because Flash doesn't allow for right-clicking, so you have to instead Shift+click

- Will there ever be multiplayer or texture packs?
There will not be those features, but I do plan on adding all three of those in Mine Blocks 2.

- A second version!?  What's Mine Blocks 2?
Yep, Mine Blocks 2 is a more ambitious version of Mine Blocks.  I plan on having multiplayer, skins, texture packs, tons of bosses, awesome AI, and an actual story line.  It's not coming very soon, but the project is started and slowly forming.  You can play the alpha versions here.

- For further help, go to the FAQ or help section in-game.

Thanks! So far, the monsters in the game are creepers, zombies, spiders, and nethereyes (haha, you'll see those).
The passive mobs are pigs, sheep, cows, and chicken.
Press ESC, and go to options to change the difficulty if you want to see the monsters at night!

Currently making water exactly like Minecraft's water!
It's going pretty good so far, but I don't think it'll be done by today!


EDIT: Done

Haha, yep - the new water physics are going to be AWESOME!

Can't wait until you add bows + arrows. or make it multiplayer. Also, you should upload it on kongregate.

I already have bows and arrows, haha!
Multiplayer - I want to so bad, but I still don't know how to.  I have to get past the glitches and lag first.
I haven't checked out Kongregate yet, but I have it on Newgrounds right now.
Thanks!

Its ugly but I love it xD Can you include a textures file!?

Haha, thanks!
Well, no texture file because in Flash there's no such thing as a texture pack.  It's hard-coded into the game, unfortunately.
I guess since my art is so bad, I'll have someone else do it!  It's against my nature though - being an Indie developer an all, but I'll do it anyway.


EDIT: New textures have been deployed!

[ZanzLanz]

Adding new water physics, fixing major lag bugs, new title graphics, *secret new tree*...

[FluffyRaindeer]

You know what. You should add your own spin to it, palce a chest in the middle of the map somewhere that has to be found, and maybe a scroll in the chest that is a treasure map, and when you get to the location there is a boss to fight, you know?

@FluffyRaindeer no, it doesn't need it. It's fine as it is, and your idea isn't really original, and it's also so simple that the game would lose a lot of replay value.

@OP I think that you should get someone to do better graphics for you, OR use minecraft's graphics.
