If anyone has any ideas for functional differences, post it on their forums or something. It would have some chance of being added. The devs seem to want to make planets as unique as possible. Even if it's not in the first official release, new things can still end up in post-release updates.

I once shot a bear in the eye with a bow on the first shot, cut it up, found another one, and shot it in the eye too. The collective pile of meat weighed more than my house.

The quality and quantity of the music is probably worth 15$ on its own.

Dunno, I wasn't that impressed by the OST.  Some of the experimental stuff was okay.

Mm... yeah, a few of the experimental ones were definitely more to my taste, so to speak. Lot of the other stuff is good, just kinda' mellow and... background-y. Especially most of the non-experimental stuff. Something that's just there instead of actively highlighting the situation or whathaveyou. Technically leaning fairly well toward excellent, but not engaging.

Some of the experimental stuff though, I like. I like quite a bit. Desert battle 2 and desert exploration... two? I think? (The lighting demo one. People can riff on copland for me all day every day.) Were probably my favorite. I think a couple of the lava ones and one of the tentacle ones were alright, too.

So far they sound like a great gameplay accompanyment... which is their purpose. :) It is a little difficult to feel an emotional connection with the tracks, seperated as they are from the worlds or environments we should be experiencing along with them. But I'm enjoying it regardless. I've been using is as a Cataclysm background ambience, hehe.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

All conjecture at this point. I'm hoping mid-late summer, but I have no basis for that hope. Just a feeling.

Valve-time, I assume.

And weren't they planning to have the release this year too? Would be a pretty short beta if it only starts this summer.

Well they can take their time... i supported starcommand for idevice/droid/pc thingy on kickstarter and the relesae date was back in 2011? or 2010? cant remember and yet the game JUST came out like a few week ago.... worst planning ever ( either planning or quite simply cant estimate the lenght of a project at all ). Better they dont say than do their mistake.

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?
