Minecraft World Explorer? iPhone? iPad?
*World Explorer
Yeah. You heard right. Minecraft World Explorer. $3.
Okay, now for the details. This is not the client! There is mention of this being a level editor in “Peaceful” mode only. You can explore your existing worlds that you have created; similar to a portable window to your creations.
The creators of this program, Robots & Pencils, have received a fair share of hate mail regarding the project, the co-founder, Michael Sikorsky, seems to play it off with an ‘It’s all good’ approach. He expresses that he actually engages in dialogue with the complaining users and afterward they are involved in the beta program or become supporters.
The legalities of it checks out. Minecraft’s website makes it clear that there can be 3rd party developers that will be able to sell and create their own additions to the Minecraft world. Not every company has such a lenient copyright policy. In regards to this thought, quoteth Mr. Sikorsky,
“We’ve talked to Mojang and love their company, but they want it to be clear that this wasn’t developed by them. We’re just part of the eco-system but that’s about it.”
Considering the potential future of Minecraft is to become public domain, this may not be too uncommon of a development for further enhancements of the platform.
Bullistic = Angry Birds + Damage Value
Put a bull in a China Shop… and nothing happens. However! Put a digital bull in a slingshot and hurl him towards a house full of expensive china; you’ve got Bullistic.
This free application is in a very like fashion of Crush the Castle and Angry Birds (as well as any other knockoff of the popularity Angry Birds brought to the slingshot gaming genre) but they add their own unique twist. Rather than going after gluttonous piggies, you’re now going to be destroying precious china. While it has a more slight destructive nature for less pointless reasons, it sounds quite intriguing.
So, if you get a chance to give it a shot, leave some feedback here. I’m not able to get it as of now; this article interested me into trying it out. If you haven’t tried Angry Birds, now is the time. They are about to get a new version, associated with an upcoming film, with about 45 new levels as well. Check it out!
