    If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

    Bought it last night and played for 5 mins - seems fun I hope they extend the multiplayer functionality soon. That would really be a lot of fun. i thought the lack of eye candy would bother me but so far not so much.

    I bought it. I messed around a bunch of times, starting out is kinda hard. I was trying to dig a shelter and get torches all before the first nightfall, and was doing things out of order. Then zombies and crap would mass attack me unprepaired and I would die. I am going to start again tonight, I think I have a pretty good idea now what to do.

    First thing is to get wood and fashion a crafting table. Then make wooden picks and get some stone. Then make stone picks. That should be done within the first few minutes. You can then make a quick shelter in the side of the cliff. If you can get all that done, run around and look for coal to make torches for the night. The next day is looking for iron.

    If you can find coal before you even build your shelter then that works out even better.

    Once you have yourself a place to call home you'll be pretty safe.

    one of my homes has a sub-terrain water pool and a few lava pools.

    Found some diamond and trying to find some more to craft some obsidian blocks.

    I was hoping to create a home out of obsidian, and then have that as my primary home of awesomeness, complete with a man made water and lava pool.

    Did you add fuel to the furnace? Coal works pretty well.

    You have to wait for the arrow to fill up. It takes time, its not like crafting.

    I built more of my castle today. Its a castle on top that have a dungeon underneath and then there is a passage way that goes all the way to the bottom of the map where there is lava. Scary!!

    Are you sure you're cooking iron ore? Can you take a screenshot of your furnace window? Also, is this online or offline?
