One More Block

Just kinda wondering....

I don't think it got very far to begin with.

And it would have been terrible. Touch controls in a 3D platformer. Ugggggh.

Agreed. A 2D Platformer, maybe, but a 3D one? Yeah, no thanks.

I thought it was interesting

On paper, yeah, but there's just too much to worry about to be practical on a touch device.

Then again, Mojang did it with Minecraft, soooo...

See the main issue with it was:
Ipad: $500
PC that can run atmosphir: $500

Which would you rather pay for and play?

My laptop runs Atmosphir very well, and iirc correctly it was about $400. Says a lot, doesn't it?

they should of turned it into a temple run rip off

Or just done what everyone else did and make a flappy bird rip off

I heard it was just going to have design mode and 2D levels.

Don't ask me where because I have no idea

Also yes the controls would have been awful

That would explain it.

Because Minecraft Pocket Edition is DEFINITELY a shining example of a PC game making a FLAWLESS transition to mobile. It's TOTALLY fun to play and the controls are DEFINITELY not completely infuriating.

Don't judge me... I've only played it once or twice.

Oh come on wowfun, don't be an asshat. You can just say that "Minecraft: Pocket Edition is a terrible example because blah blah".

And even then, 21 million people would disagree with you.
That's right, 5 million more than the PC version, and 8 million more than the 360 version.

God knows why. I mean, does anyone actually USE Pocket Edition for anything besides just building?

The main reason the Pocket Edition is so popular is because it's easier to get to a more broader audience. Another factor is that it is cheaper than the PC version so one that isn't able to get it on the PC might get the PE.

Because 21 million people downloaded the game doesn't mean 21 million people don't think the controls are horrible. I have it. It's absolutely terrible and I'm sure most of the people that play agree and would pick the PC version over the PE, not only for the controls, but also because the PE version is much more limited than the PC version is.

It's also his opinion that the controls are horrible. Some people might disagree. It is an opinion after all.

/end whatever that was

I really don't know. A friend of mine actually plays regularly on it and has established a pretty big city in it. The reason he plays on the PE rather than on his computer is because Minecraft gets pretty choppy FPS on there. Hey, add that to the list of factors why PE has more users.

I have a couple of friends who play both PE and the PC version. Nobody I know uses PE and PE alone.
