Notes

The Camera's Behavior is Different To Minecraft's

The initial version, released on December 2, 2009 was more limited than any other edition of Minecraft ever released to the general public, which included the pre-classic version accessible via the Minecraft Launcher. The controls were altered and additional blocks were added to the game. [2]



The original site hosting the game was taken down in November 2014. Its archive is still accessable via the Wayback Machine. The executable is also accessible through the Internet Archive.



On December 2, 2012, Notch released the JavaScript version of Minecraft 4k. It is not possible to move or look around in this version, though the camera or the world does move on its own and there is a blue water-like block in addition to the other types of blocks. [3]

Gameplay[]



General[]



The player can place and destroy blocks. The only block the player can place is grass, which is reminiscent of the very first versions of Minecraft internally known as RubyDung which can be downloaded from the Minecraft Launcher. Leaves do not decay.



World[]



Every time the game is loaded it, the same 64x64x63 block universe is generated. There are only two blocks in the game which are: grass block, air, dirt block, stone, bricks and bricks. No mobs exist.



The first version of the game has one type of block, that uses an XOR fracture as texture.



An invisible wall is a barrier that surrounds the world, stopping the player from fleeing as in the bedrock that is invisible or an old world.



Controls[]



The player can move around using the standard WASD controls and jump using Space.



Left- and right-clicking controls are reversed from traditional Minecraft controls. Left-click places blocks, while right-clicks destroy them. The middle-click can also place blocks in a bizarre manner. Moving the mouse rotates the camera "smoothly," similar to pressing F8 in Java Edition, and cannot be changed in this version.



The camera acts differently to Minecraft's. The camera only moves when the cursor is moved far enough away from the center of Minecraft's viewport. The cursor selects blocks in the world, and is not the center of the viewport.



The game does not include an options menu , nor a HUD.



Graphics[]



Since the game renders at a low resolution, the graphics appear blurred. The game does not adjust the resolution appropriately when it runs at higher resolution. This causes the game to retain its pixelated appearance. Block textures are identical to those used in Classic and Classic 0.30 (Creative), as Classic 0.30 (Creative) was the most recent version of Minecraft at the time. The majority of blocks are louder than their Minecraft counterparts, although some blocks, particularly stone, appear different. The lack of a skybox means that the sky is black.



When you hover your cursor over the block the outline of the block appears thick and white, as opposed to Minecraft's thin gray outline of block selection.

Blocks[]



The original version of the game has a single non-air block.



The second version stores block IDs using four bits. This provides 16 possible IDs. Most of them are filled in by slightly differently textured dirt.
