[Game] Minecraft level engine test (Update: now can place blocks!)

For those of you who are Minecraft fans, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-9K8ZQTOMY is a video of a guy who got the engine running on his Galaxy S. He released the apk and directions yesterday. The apk is here and directions are here. To install, you install the apk but you also need to extract your .minecraft folder from your pc with the directory structure on your sd card /sdcard/.minecraft/saves/World1. Links to two of my saves, confirmed to work by a friend are here and here. Just extract the zip to your sdcard. The first one is my main save, which I recommend trying, but the second one is a fresh world that is much smaller in case the first one doesn't work. I believe those files are ok to share because they are only saves and this app is in no way currently a replacement for the full game. If anyone finds out differently, I'll gladly take the files down. It is easy enough to use your own files from your own minecraft installation on your PC. Now that he has created a google code project for minedroid solely, here's the new link: code.google.com/p/minedroid He has a new video of the brand new interface.
Btw, THIS IS NOT MY APP, I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR IT OTHER THAN UPLOADING MY SAVES FOR CONVENIENCE.

This is awesome! Works like a charm on my Galaxy S.
Thank you for informing about it

Kind of. It's a render test as a proof of concept for minecraft, a rather popular indie game for the pc.

Textures appear to be messed up using the T-Mobile G2.

This is really a swsome game

Once everything is ironed out, this could be really awesome...possibly even epic!

Define messed up. Glitchy looking or just not what they look like on PC? On all devices, for some reason, the textures don't match the PC version.

Works on my Samsung Galaxy Europa
Works fine on my Europa but the controls are a bit awkward....
I love it lol. Thanks for sharing

Sorry for the bump but I think the new update warrants it.

I....am.....keen! Minecraft rules, I will be definitely giving this a go

Oh god... it's...... EPIC!

I uploaded 2 of my saves in the first post. The first one is my main save but the second is a brand new world like you are asking for.

This is definitely an awesome app.
The controls are a little off for me on my Mytouch Slide, but it's workable.
Asked the creator to see if he can help out with the smaller resoulution. Might get an apk to test.
I kinda wish he would continue on and make it full-fledged... but that's up to Notch and Mojang!

Android Apps?

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question but what are the best mind blowing android apps paid/free that would possibly blow OS iphone out the window ??

swype! not available at the market, but you can sign up for the beta at swype.com
also google sky map.

Hmmm. It got to be all of the Google apps. Swype. SIPDroid. Google Voice (lol which is a google app). Springpad.

Yeah, pretty much all the Google apps. Plus the Super Nintendo emulator AutoDesk Sketchbook Mobile Express is pretty awesome too. As for Swype, it was there on my phone when I got the thing (LG Optimus S).
Aside from that, I'm new to Android myself so I'm curious to see what other people have to say as well.

Google Earth - Or has that been introduced to iPhone? I can't remember...but I personally LOVE it.

Yeah! And best: Apple doesn't want emulators on their phone.
And if you need to impress iPhone Users even more, just show them a youtube video inside the browser - one which says "not for mobile devices" in the youtube app. In dolphin mini I open the youtube video, go down the page an choose "Desktop" for this.

Marketplace app question

Hey guys, hope this is the right place to post this but what apps would you like to see in the market place?

On what market?

We are fishing for app ideas? Ask 10 things everyone hates about the most 10 most popular apps and fix a few things from each list in an app. You have to understand the synergy of the items you are trying to fix to ensure they fit within your own app but then people will flock to it.

Command and conquer or the old PC style Warcraft, ad free of course. Maybe a good flight simulator.

+1 to the old school Warcraft...i'd personally like Warcraft II (more polished, more levels, more units, more awesome).
Best old school strategy game ever!!!

A slightly off-topic question here... How do you guys go about developing Android apps? What all languages and skills do I need to know/possess?
Thanks

I believe Android apps use Java or a Java-like programming language. Google has help available to help budding programmers to develop apps
okay...well, it will not let me post the link but...

My Little Pony Friendship is Magic (AVAILABLE NOW, FREE!)

Yeah so... I might be the only person here who's looking forward to this game. There's no official release date available yet, but Gameloft has announced that it will be available 'later this year' and will be on both iOS and Android.
From what I can tell it looks to be a city builder type game. Playing mini games to earn points, then using those points to buy houses, ponies, items...so on and so forth.
So my questions to you all is: Are you excited for this game? Do you think It'll satisfy My Little Pony fans? Will you be buying this? & If so how much are you willing to pay?
I personally think I will be a good game if they do 2 simple things. Listen to what the fans have to say, and have it reflect future episodes, meaning if new ponies make their appearance in season 3, I think Gameloft should add them into the game and to do as much as possible to have the game reflect the TV show. If they keep the updates coming this game should have some lasting appeal & replay value.
Check out the iPad game play demo and let me know what you think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlBInHiJ-74

As a fellow brony, this excites me. /)
Like you said, as long as Gameloft listens to what the fans have to say. And of course new ponies and cannon names and the whatnot. And I hope that they include some of the maybe not so well known background ponies. Such as Lyra, Bon Bon, and Dr. Whooves, etc.. I'd probably pay anywhere between 5 and 10 dollars. Depending on how much content is actually in the game.

Possibly....even if I stopped watching it after season 2 episode 1....I still read the fanfics though lol.

Thanks for the heads up, my wife loves games like this and the more cutesy the better
Edit: just watched the video, no way will this run on her ****ty wildfire s

They could make great use of the Xperia Plays touch pads on this game, instead of touch swiping the screen to navigate you could just use the touch pads. And the mini games could make great use of the D-pad. The game has huge potential hopefully they put effort into this instead of just selling the name and making a quick buck.

OMG! I LOVE PONIES!!!!
Must buy, must have!
Oh wait. Not for Android.

Didn't you know.. Ponies make the world go round!

I've been playing for about 12 hours now, runs flawlessly 98% of the time.
Running on my 800X. Pretty entertaining none the less.

Lol thats awesome
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app

The only 'major' issue I've come across is the inability to connect to Gameloft & stay connected.
It's a flaw in the game, I expect this to be fixed pretty soon considering most challenges have to do with connecting to gameloft and interacting with other ponies.
All in all a pretty good game tho, I've played it more than Halo 4 so far...

Lol, you just made me download the game Xperia-player

Do you feel forced to make in app purchases or can you play the game fine without? I've only started really but read negative reviews stating this.

things get sort of expensive later down the road, but they don't force it on you. I'm level 23 and I haven't spent a dollar yet. As long as you manage your in game money you should be fine.

Thanks for the answer. The game isn't too bad. Does it ever feel like a grind?

Not really, after you hit level 20 everything you need is pretty much there. I currently have 35,000+ bits right now and that number increases every 3 minutes or so. I've also done all the available 'challenges' for the time being (besides the GL ones obviously)
So yeah hopefully we'll see an update soon...

What's the best beat making app?

I'm a producer as a hobby and I have tried many beat making apps but have yet to find one I like. Some are good but can't record and others just aren't so great. What your opinion/suggestion?
Sent from my ATRIX 2 using xda app-developers app

Electrum Drum

Kinda off topic, but I've been using something for a long time. It's not an app on android, or any phone. it's actually for psp (PlayStation portable). It's called beaterator. It's by far the best portable beat making app.
But on android, there's not much, I used this one that's called spc. Idk how much it is on play store, I got free as Amazon app of the day. It's pretty cool but not much to do on it. It's basically a bunch of loops you put together.

Thank you all for your suggestions, I have the ppsspp emu so maybe I can get beaterator to work.

Interested in this as well

Not a true "beat making" app, but I use Caustic. It is a full featured synth app with decent beatbox capabilities. Paid version is 7 bucks, but for me it was worth it.
