    Fortresscraft is made by team of developers, but Notch has a team, but started alone, and recently hired another.
    Updates/patches in Xbox live can take more time since it needs approval from microsoft... can take weeks.


    Please don't make things up. Notch has hired several people.

    So far, on this game, I've done around 99% of the coding work. I've had help from 3 other people for avatar, networking and some shader tech, but this is so close to being a single-man code project right now that calling it a 'team of developers' is miles and miles from the truth.

    Updates + Patches do not require MS approval, just peer approval, which is a 3-5 day process.


    Let me rewrite want meant to write :smile.gif: Notch started alone... has now a team and recently hired another into the team :smile.gif: don't know much about ms approval thing, but I know it takes time.

    The first game was ping pong made on a military radar display :smile.gif:
    Anyway Notch did say he doesn't care much about copyright on minecraft when it comes to who made it "first" or who had the idea first. But I noticed on mojang.com they have another game on the making :smile.gif:

    Good and bad part about Fortresscraft comapred to Minecraft:

    Better graphics, but Minecraft can also get better graphics through texture packs.
    Cheap, to begin with... but the addons will also cost when they arrive and those who bought Minecraft will get updates for free and it's still just beta.
    Xbox live requires Gold membership subscription, Minecraft is one time payment and minecraft can be modded by any talented people out there.

    There is alot of people who have xbox 360, but how many hasn't a computer...
    But may buy it on xbox :smile.gif: to try it out and see if the addons is different and worth it.
