Earlier today, the creator of Minecraft - Notch - tweeted saying:
After several weeks of trying to come up with a good name for the game, we finally decided not to learn from previous experiences and pick a name that's already kind of in use by a huge existing franchise.While the game is still early in development, it features many elements not found in currently available games:
- Hard science fiction.
- Lots of engineering.
- A game ending that makes sense.
- And more!
Fans of possibly similar franchises will be happy to learn that one of the most requested features will be incorporated into this game.
