Who Invented Minecraft?

Minecraft was created by Markus ‘Notch’ Persson, a Swedish game programmer. Before starting Minecraft, he had worked at King for over four years. In 2009, he decided to focus on developing Minecraft full-time. The idea for the game came from two sources, one of which was a game he was working on called RubyDung. The game was about base building and a block-based mining game called Infiniminer. He combined his first-person perspective with the building features from Infiniminer and the RPG and base-building elements of RubyDung to create Minecraft.

The game is all about building, with everything made from blocks. As the game is made from blocks, everything has a cartoon-like appearance. Players can choose to play alone or team up with others to create a world. Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed’s Hardcore Minecraft Stream: Internet Stars Clash in Live Streaming Gameplay Owing to Dramatic Reactions As Netizens Find Humour in Viral Video.
