fun fact: Notch came back to programming recently and is currently updating us on the progress of his new game (in an alpha phase) so that's interesting
One game you forgot to mention that Notch created before minecraft was Legend of the Chambered, which he started working on in 2001. He made multiple different versions of the game with the most well known version releasing in May of 2008. In the 2008 version of LotC, there’s various textures from that game that notch would directly rip and place into minecraft, those textures being Leather, Chainmail, Iron and Studded armour, the iron sword, apples, quivers, the inventory icons and even the text font that minecraft uses.
the mentions of "wow these textures look super reminiscent of early Minecraft" feel a bit silly imo. there's nothing exclusively Minecraft about the style there, that's just what amateur pixel art textures look like. Take the basic primary color of the thing you're trying to depict and add some subtle noisy detail. Minecraft didn't invent the concept of blue water
Ofcourse they are reminiscent of early minecraft, as early minecraft popularized the game with Notch's brand of amateur pixel art. It has a distinct look to it, with it's oversaturated colors and heavy use of noise in the textures. Minecraft didn't invent blue water , but you could easily tell if a game used minecraft's water textures
game: **is pixelated and in Notch's art style** this fucking guy: if THIS game was NEVER made, Notch would have NEVER made Minecraft and MY CHANNEL would never exist!!
One of my favorite games Notch made is called "VVVV 4k". It's a 4k version of the indie game VVVVVV, which I was obsessed with as a kid. It was actually my first exposure to Notch's work before I even really knew about Minecraft.
The game Miners 4K looks a lot like a Lemmings clone, which might have been the inspiration behind it. Also since that dungeon crawler is playable maybe you could do a quick playthrough if no one else has yet. I've actually seen Wurm Online as a game before, had no idea he worked on it. Should check it out.
Very interesting, I always knew that he made games prior, but wasn't aware of the extensive history besides bits and pieces of RubyDung! Great video as always
I think it would also be nice to note Minecraft 4k (a 4k minecraft-like terrain generator with a few block types) and Minicraft, the latter if I remember correctly was actually released before Minecraft, and is a top-down survival game sort of similar to, well, Minecraft, made for another 48-hour game jam
It's crazy how everyone always talks about Infiniminer or RubyDung as the Minecraft precursors, but no one ever brings up Wurm. It's literally the closest thing to Minecraft before Minecraft, and everyone forgot.
Good video :) I actually made a similar video for this topic awhile back, but really wasn't happy with how it turned out, I'd say this is a better rundown of the really interesting history leading up to Minecraft that is so rarely talked about.
Would you be interested in doing a let’s play in an old version or with the Better Beta modpack? I have seen some cool 100 Days styles videos in old version but they aren’t as fun as watching a world slowly grow over time.
I absolutely loved the pacing of this video! Super interesting topic as well! (I also wanna know what shader are you using in this vid? The fluffy clouds look gorgeous)
0:19 I BELIEVE THE MORNING SUN IS ALWAYS GONNA SHINE AGAIN, AND I BELIEVE THE MAKE-BELIEVE AND FAIRY TALES AND LUCKY CHARM, AND I BELIEVE IN ROSES KISSED WITH DEW, SO WHY SHOULDN’T I BELIEVE THE SAME IN YOOOOOUUUUU???!!!
wow amazing video i learnt so much about the history of minecraft thank you paladin ryan for teaching us all about how our favourite game came to be. keep slaying
good video and i learned a lot more from it than the surface level stuff most other youtubers mention but... it's painful to look at you mentioning minecraft every time green pixel grass is seen in a game. or the fact that you didn't even know what lemmings is
something crazy
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Crazy
Crazy? I Was Crazy Once.
Crazy

Yep
Levers and chests

Ye that looked so fun i remember there were even fonctional computers@@kobold7466

ooo that's awesome, I definitely missed that!

Fuck, this guy doesn't know what Lemmings is. I'm now officially old.
My thoughts exactly, I'm glad I wasn't the only one! 😂
Miners 4k was specifically based on Lemmings, which is clear given the character sprites were ripped from it
We a rare breed
don't worry, i've been making sure to ridicule ryan for not knowing it on the server
It also has similarities to Clonk, I wonder if Notch has played (or seen) that :P
It's rare to see a video discussing the pre-mine craft Notch days, this is extremely fascinating!

Learning that Notch worked for King was easily the biggest surprise

The Rubyland inventory slots are exactly the same as the Minecraft ones, so even the latest Minecraft version has something from 30 years ago!

8:35 bro insulted the lemmings 🥲
blud sold his game and is now watching it evolve into something that was never in his vision
facts
Thought this was from a bigger channel because it popped up in my recommendations, but good video dude keep up the work
One thing i noticed! 4:24 On the right there is an item slot thing. It looks EXACTLY like minecraft, even though notch made this in the late 90s!
Bro deserves more subs
Just waiting for that one video that pops off and sends u up
08:34 That's a Lemmings art style.
It's crazy how everyone always talks about Infiniminer or RubyDung as the Minecraft precursors, but no one ever brings up Wurm. It's literally the closest thing to Minecraft before Minecraft, and everyone forgot.
8:35 dont you DARE diss lemmings like that
notches continued obsessions with rpgs explains the light fantasy elements that were introduced from beta 1.8 onwards
5:40 That looks like Notch from an alternative universe. Has he made a game that transcends space and time or something?
Good video :)

thanks dude :)
8:36
woah lemmings
Infinite Mario Bros was my favorite
Would you be interested in doing a let’s play in an old version or with the Better Beta modpack? I have seen some cool 100 Days styles videos in old version but they aren’t as fun as watching a world slowly grow over time.
I absolutely loved the pacing of this video! Super interesting topic as well!
(I also wanna know what shader are you using in this vid? The fluffy clouds look gorgeous)
2:43 arcade styled galaga machine
Great video, interesting to see that most of Notch’s website was archived!
LET'S GO THE GOATS BACK (AGAIN).
0:19 I BELIEVE THE MORNING SUN
IS ALWAYS GONNA SHINE AGAIN, AND
I BELIEVE THE MAKE-BELIEVE
AND FAIRY TALES AND LUCKY CHARM, AND
I BELIEVE IN ROSES KISSED WITH DEW,
SO WHY SHOULDN’T I BELIEVE THE SAME IN YOOOOOUUUUU???!!!
Mother
rise and shine mr freeman. rise and shine..
Weird as hell to learn notch made ZUMA that was my mom's favorite game when i was a small child.
didnt one of these games also include some of the items that would later get into minecraft like the iron pickaxe?
legend of the chambered (apple, sword, all armor and quiver)
MARKUS PERSON, BURGER PERSON. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
There was also a java mario 3 game that’d generate entire levels. Loved to play it in jr high
Some things have rich and fun history.
Great video! but where's Breaking the Tower?
There's also a Minecraft 4k
New video! Haven't seen anyone talk about this before. You definitely deserve way more subscribers!
8:33 This is just lemmings.
isnt miners4k just a Lemmings clone?
Clearly nothing of value, or we would already know about it
That music at the end sounds like a remix of Gymnopedie 1. Where might I be able to find it?
What happened to Mr. Shit
Great video, and very informative!
However you forgot to link the website lol
wow amazing video i learnt so much about the history of minecraft thank you paladin ryan for teaching us all about how our favourite game came to be. keep slaying
I learnt that Ryan knows 3 very specific things from the 1990 demoscene and literally nothing else.
I'm torn between wishing Rubylands had come to fruition and being glad it didn't since Minecraft likely wouldn't exist if it had.
I condone and support 100% of notches twitter posts.
Based
Cringe
but why
@@istoleyunomilesbigmac He's based.
@@kobold7466 actually?
Pretty interesting, didn't know about this, cool video!
Notch un netflixte belgeseli yapılsın
Thx for the history!
hes back lessgo
he do be what the kids call back
What shader do you use at 2:42?
good video and i learned a lot more from it than the surface level stuff most other youtubers mention but... it's painful to look at you mentioning minecraft every time green pixel grass is seen in a game. or the fact that you didn't even know what lemmings is
LOVE UR CONTENT!
What’s with UA-camrs blacking out peoples eyes for no reason
im sorry. kibibytes ???? 😭
you should do more pluse his history not over he started makeing a new game
Interesting 🤔
Notch made zuma???
I thought that was what the idea was too, but looked into it and it was just that he recreated it for the website
notch is based
Notch is right about everything on X.
You should check out MCPE 0.8.1 especially MCPE 0.8.1 servers which are still active to this day like one active server named PocketLands
Oh yeah new vid :)
Coming from discord
OOG BOOGA
LOOK AT THE WOUNDS!
Notch did nothing wrong
He's weird, but l think that the things that he said are "old" now
@@lunamig1006 he was right then too
@@lunamig1006 especially then
Change the 1998 in the thumbnail to 1988, and I guarantee this will get more views, and it won't even matter if it's wrong
I condone what Notch said.
Can u play "the john" minecraft mod
he made pancakes
6:25 mewing realistic steve omg
Does anyone know the shader? Best looking water I've ever seen in one
complementary unbound!
@PaladinRyan wow that was fast hah thanks. Since you're here, great video I enjoy deep dives like this
@@Celosia117 appreciate that, that means a lot!
@PaladinRyan absolutely. Looking forward to future vids! I would've done a more in depth feedback but I'm too tired lol
Oogaboogalooga
Yes, I did enjoy the video
Whatevs approves this message
Plot twist: this channel is secretly run by notch
Haven't seen any transphobic or racist comments... Same with the cocaine jokes. I think you might be incorrect
@@sz.marcell dw there is some in the comments
w vid
this is the worst thing ive ever seen, unsubsricb-
you got hatsune miku’s name wrong the whole vid but aside from that this was rly informative n a good catch-up piece for interested fans 👍
Hatsune Miku supports everything notch has said.
First
I lied 😊
Please could you send me a discord invite? Thank you Ryan.

You did it, you commented something crazy. Now I’m gonna reply something awful
