Most addictive thing since Legos.

Anyone play this?

I myself play Classic mode, since Im too lazy to buy Survival.

I have my own Classic server actually. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1024&t=127428)

Since I love castlevania so darn much, I built myself a Castlevania inspired castle.

Yeah, I play classic too sometimes. However, I have had a trouble with really annoying lag whenever I load a saved game. It doesn't happen to me when I start a new game though. Maybe I should just try it in Windows 7 sometime.

Do you play it in single player? As far as I know, you cant save and load in Classic multiplayer.

Although classic most definitely lags at times

Actually purchased the the current beta in support of the developer, which apparently also covers the cost when the game finally goes out of beta status and becomes a final revision.

I'm actually in the middle of building a series of floating islands connected to a sheer cliff wall, which I intend to built a fairly close replica of CastleVania on the edge of the cliff.

Here is some screenshots of my work in progress.

http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/7918/image03y.jpg (http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/7918/image03y.jpg) - directly below the 2nd island which is currently unfinished, you can see the frame work for construction of these floating islands is bowl-like shape which is then filled with dirt blocks.
http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/8163/image04z.jpg (http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/8163/image04z.jpg) - On the bridge looking directly at the cliff where CastleVania is going to be built.
http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/300/image05xi.jpg (http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/300/image05xi.jpg) - Quite some distance below looking up towards the cliff face looking directly up at the staircase / bridge that leads to the Castle.

That's pretty cool. Good luck with that. :)
Me and my pals are actually going to buy Beta soon.

Also- since I forgot to shamelessly plug my server-
Here's the plug to our Topic in the MC forums. (with the link- I dont want to link directly)

Its not a dedicates server, so it goes up and down like the tides.

I purchased it when it was Alpha. I run a private multiplayer server for me and my friends. Damn addictive.

Yeah, it's the city X (no pun intended) founded after the events of the MMX series.

Sharp you guys are.

The name was partially inspired by the Zero series city of the same name, and by an old channer server called Arcadia which left a real impression on me.
