The Forgotten Minecraft Spinoff - Survivalcraft

[@symbadx37]

Hello! Survivalcraft veteran here! Overall, a very good video, although me and @NBG noticed you got quite a few things incorrect and we wanted to provided proper explanations for the uninformed. I know we're a bit late to the party (only 4 months late), but I just saw this video today and I wanted to give my thoughts on it. I've been playing this game for a total of 10 years; although I didn't start really taking it seriously until about 4 years ago. I've been creating 'electronics' systems in the game for about the same amount of time (I document these projects on my YT), so I would say I am at least somewhat qualified to discuss what I am about to mention in the section below. With that out of the way, let's get to the point of this comment: 3:11 While I understand you probably made this claim due to the lack of information, this is simply NOT true. Let me explain. Minecraft's Redstone makes use of much simpler components with simple behaviors. Their uses are not straightforward; rather, they are more ambiguous (more confusing to use together). This does NOT mean they are more complex in essence. Survivalcraft's electronics system is quite the opposite of this. Components have much more complex behaviors, and are more condensed in size in comparison to their similar Redstone counterparts. This means that you can accomplish the same task (and sometimes more) with less components taking up less physical space within the world. Not only this, but the speed at which Survivalcraft electronics operate is 100 Hz (100 times a second). In comparison, vanilla Redstone components operate a much lower speed than this (yes, I am aware of mods and commands, I am only comparing base vanilla versions without modifications). 3:35 The game was actually made by a solo developer, Marcin Igor Kalicinski. We do know that his son did contribute to the code in the latest update, 2.3. He has an official blog where he posts updates regarding the game, I can link you the site on discord (YT doesn't like links in comments). 3:57 It's quite funny really, because there are a lot of features that Survivalcraft had way before Minecraft did. A few examples of such are: crossbows, vertical signs, ridable camels, copper ore, extended terrain height and generation, and even a secondary stone layer underground (think deepslate, but in this case it's basalt). 4:48 This probably isn't worth to point out, but there actually is a 4% chance to get a diamond from killing a werewolf. 6:28 Survivalcraft 2 wasn't always supposed to exist. In 2016, update 1.30 was supposed to be released; however, at some point during pre-release, Kaalus decided that he wanted to release 1.30 as a separate game in order to celebrate the game's 5 year anniversary. The price was heavily discounted for a period of time so people who already owned the first game could switch over without having to pay full price again. Many of us are not in favor of this decision looking back, but it is what it is. 6:50 This technically is the case, but at the same time it isn't. Yes, individual furniture blocks must be contained within a single block space, but that doesn't mean you can't use multiple furniture blocks to create one much larger design. There are a few Survivalcraft players that have mastered this, and have recreated full-on vehicles just using vanilla furniture. 7:11 Another common misconception about Survivalcraft's electronics is the fact that they do NOT closely resemble any sort of real-world electronics systems. Rather, they more closely resemble real-world programming and logic principles more than anything. Power is implied, but not a game mechanic that exists in any capacity. 'Electricity' is a just a category components are themed towards, in order to distinguish its 'electronics' system from other games of similar type. This does not mean components in Survivalcraft have anything to with real-world electrical engineering principles. I will say though, creating displays and CPUs is POSSIBLE within the game, as many have tried (not many have succeeded). The main issue comes down to the game not being optimized enough, which has discouraged many. Survivalcraft KZbinr @SP4CEBAR has succeeded at creating the former; however, not many CPUs have been created (of the same caliber, I know 4-Bit and 8-Bit CPUs exist in Survivalcraft). 7:27 Back in 2011, the game was just a simple Minecraft clone. Kaalus really liked the concept of Minecraft and decided to make his own version. He decided to develop it on Windows Phone 7, simply because there were no Minecraft clones on that specific platform at the time. This proved to be quite taxing on the game's overall performance, as Windows Phones were pretty terrible at the time. This is also partly why it took him so long to port and optimize the game for PC and modern devices (and it's still not perfect). You can read more about this in the interview he had with WP-Games; I'll also link this in the discord if needed. 7:48 It wasn't always this way. Survivalcraft used to get constant updates from 2011 up till 2016, which is where updates really started to slow down. Many suggest that Kaalus just become burnt on from working on the game constantly, which may be partly true. But, we do know now that he has a family and a full-time job outside of working on Survivalcraft, which he really considers to just be a side hobby he works on for fun in his spare time. That's mostly why updates take so darn long (and are lackluster). 7:50 Unfortunately, I don't think Kaalus will see this video. The last official post he made was over two years ago, and he doesn't even respond to emails anymore. He doesn't engage with the community like he used to, and it's a shame. However, that doesn't mean he isn't still developing Survivalcraft. He's just silent until he's ready to release something. I should also note that he is active on Stack Overflow from time to time, so we at least know he's busy on SOMETHING. What that is, we still don't know yet. 8:10 2.3 was definitely a lackluster update in terms of actual content, it had an extremely important change, that being a new world compression format. World sizes have been HEAVILY reduced, which is incredibly important for those on mobile devices with limited storage size. 9:03 So, the last thing to tackle is modding and third-party software in general. There is (non-official) multiplayer clients that work on both LAN and WAN networks, as well as dedicated servers. It's not GREAT, but it works (well enough). There have been problems with verification and piracy (since the modified clients are cracked versions), and it's still in a grey area since Kaalus has been slient regarding this entire topic as of yet. There is also a mod API, which allows for the loading of custom mods (such as world edit, content mods, etc.). The best (and safest) way to access it is to join the OFFICIAL (sort of) Survivalcraft discord, the link of which I can also provide in your server. Alright, I think I've covered everything. The links I've mentioned above I will have to provide another way (apparently that's why @NBG's comment was blocked). I know that was a lot, but I wanted to be as thorough as possible. If someone thinks I missed something, or I made a mistake, feel free to let me know and I'll consider correcting it. If you've gotten this far, thank you for reading! I hope this comment finds you well.

[@acidicalportal4418]

I will pin this comment for all to see, largely because it'll be an important asset for knowledge and information about this game. I very greatly appreciate the constructive criticism! Also note, you're right on the fact that it's hard to find information on good sources, I usually stray away from game Wikipedia's and try to seek KZbin videos explaining certain aspects of the game, that being said. Having direct knowledge about the use of the mechanics of this game is extremely helpful for anyone looking to play this game. Also, I checked my held for review comments and I couldn't find him there. I don't know if KZbin got involved or something or that the time it was there expired. Like I said thank you for the insight and I hope you have a good day!

I still actually play it to this day because i love it, but i usually play minecraft. Still, i'll never forget the memories i had with this game though.

I just pick this game back up a few weeks ago after playing and dismissing it as a MC clone years before. Now after getting used to the mechanics I feel like it is fundamentally more sound mechanically as a survival game than Minecraft. Actually, it suits me better as I am an older gamer and appreciate how Survival Craft stays grounded in the real world. I am glad I am beginning to see more new content for this game as much of it is from a few years ago. I am excited as I feel there is a small ressurgance in the community. Now that simplicity is currently trending in the MC community I can see more folks turning to this as an alternative. It is a good, solid, simple and complete game. Great vid! Would love to see more SC content!

[@IsaacWale2004]

I never forgot about it. I remember playing it on my old tablet. Yeah, it was very similar to Minecraft, but it was also very different in its own way and remember loving it.

[@mothokingsley]

I LOVE THIS GAME! I'm so glad someone is giving it attention. I remember playing the hell out of this game while listening to an audiobook of 1984 for high school. One thing I love is that the pistons are, imo, way better. They extend up to eight blocks, and grip up to eight blocks. Piaton doors are so much easier than Minecraft

Survivalcraft is definetly more difficult than Minecraft. First day and you would have hard time finding food without getting bullied by Wolves

Survivalcraft was made by a singe developer, Kaalus. His son only did one feature and I doubt he "helped" more just added it, this whole game was made by one person.

[@Izz_Antek]

I love this game, I still play it to this day

[@thevenator3955]

The reason I preferred this game to Minecraft on my iPad many years ago was because in this game you could download other people’s worlds, in Minecraft PE you couldn’t. I wanted to play stuff like skyblock and narrative maps and there was a crazy impressive collaboratively built city. There was no multiplayer but people would download the world, build something, and then reupload it as a new version the next person would download. There were literally roleplay servers with factions you could join and people would have conversations with each other by placing signs and then reuploading the world, which is just amazing ingenuity. Keep in mind, this is all organized and accomplished by children, pre-teens at most. I can remember plenty of specific maps I had lots of fun exploring, and while I never uploaded anything myself, the fact that thousands of children who only had IPads to play games on brute forced multiplayer Minecraft into existence is so cool.

[@JumpOutMiser]

no no no, only 1 person worked on this game while the other 2 were the devs sons who tested the game and made the most popular furniture pack in the game with 1.34 million downloads

[@BellalisDope]

I’ve been playing this game on and off for years. It’s way different than Minecraft in that it is very realistic. You feel like you are out in nature surviving. You have hunger and real predators hunting you and you hunting f prey. I would call this a nature immersion craft world.

[@acidicalportal4418]

I agree with that summarization. Everything about the game is semi-realistic.

Survivalcraft came out before the official Minecraft pocket edition so it's not a clone

[@mikaari_fdv]

Something that really amazed me back in the day when the old Minecraft pocket edition was around was that for mcpe in order to use custom skins, texture packs and maps you had to jailbreak your phone and modify the game files (on android it was easier, though), but in survivalcraft it was already a game feature, you could download community content, and you didn't even have to do it from internet sites, you could do it JUST IN THE GAME, I actually remember playing this game more often than Minecraft simply because mcpe was really limited and had a lot of missing features from the original version, and Survivalcraft didn't have any, I would only play Mcpe for the online play, since I only had the full game on console and servers weren't a thing.

I remeber following that damn ship that appears when you spawn in creative mode for what felt like several hours (probably just a few minutes) a lot of times just to see where it was going, and thats how i found out that this game had killer whales/orcas (i found one suffocating in an island along the ship's path, thats also how i found that the ship had no collision with anything💀). Yep, thats what i did for most of my time in this game, besides trapping a bunch of water creatures in a small pool, just to try blowing them up (i actually tried blowing up a lot of suff in this game for absolutely no reason)

[@lisa4471]

I loved the game, played it several years ago, man i loved it❤

[@cattymations]

This game is one of my favourites ever, honestly. It is THE most well-designed survival game I have ever played, with Project Zomboid in a close second, though I feel as if SC2 does difficulty a little better than Zomboid. I could go on and on about how amazing this game is but, I would rather have people play the game for themselves and try to figure it out. I definitely feel like cruel is the definitive way to play, as the stakes are raised so much higher and just makes the game more fun overall.

I guess they could more focus on "survival" in this game rather than technical stuffs such as electronic gadgets. They could've added a portal where we can goto Jurassic world and survive there, or portal to a fantasy world where we have to survive with various types of "monsters" & mythical creatures. Those worlds will have their own 'laws' of how we have to adopt there. I'd definitely love that if there were something like this.

as for me, who has recently bought it (finnaly, after years) for my pc, i keep wanting more exploration for the oceans. well, yeah, it does have content in the ocean, but i wish there were special loot only found there, and you had to either go scuba diving or build a small submarine that you could use to explore arround. the same goes for the air, imagine how cool would that be, able to fly around in some sort of gliding gear? maybe have a small motor, a plane. but if there are more updates, i reallly would love more biomes and more consistent fauna. more hostile mobs as well. also more food options and more ways to store and conserve them. imagine if you could only find certain animals in certain biomes? youd had to go exploring, it woudl be an obligation! anyway, i dont think there'll be more updates...😊

There are even underworld & sky world as well, you can even go to another world if you manage to make a rocket & evey world has their own set of enemies, bosses, loots and environment :) there are many many things to explore there!

Bro, Don't say your roof is made of wood or anything flammable, if so then I can understand and be careful of gunpowder or things made from it even in item form it is still very dangerous when encountered flammable things such as Lava, fire, furnace, or campfire, the Shock Wave of an explosion is likely to explode, in general you should build a house made from materials that are not flammable and cannot be damaged by lightning, and you should store explosive materials in a room made from non-flammable materials.

[@Motivated754]

@@phongluu7869 yeah I learned that the hard way 🥲

[@phongluu7869]

​@@Motivated754That's also one of the valuable lessons I've ever experienced. Anyway, Survivalcraft is a game that leans towards reality, learning lessons in survival, maybe if my house also has gunpowder and is on fire. I probably would have run out of the house a long time ago. Anyway, this game is definitely dozens of times more difficult than Minecraft because in Minecraft you don't have to be afraid of being in cold places, near lava, at night, climbing mountains,to emerse in the rain,diseases, swimming or leaving food out for a long time. Star. Survivalcraft specializes in reality and is much more difficult when going through those things

@@phongluu7869 yeah, I’d definitely say that you can’t call SC a minecraft spin-off since it’s more of its own thing. Love the game and hope the dev doesn’t abandon it

[@phongluu7869]

​@@Motivated754Actually, Survivalcraft is my most favorite game ever but I hate people who say Survivalcraft is a copy of Minecraft, it's like saying any game related to Sandbox game is copied from Minecraft. but people don't understand what the definition of copy is and I really hate people who say that.

There was this game called Mini Block Craft which just downloaded Survivalcraft 1 and put its own texture over it and the game was free and i played that before i even discovered Survivalcraft i played that game when i was like 6 but and now in 2024 there is a second version of that game called Mini Block Craft 2 which is just survival craft 2 and also now in 2024 mini block craft (not 2) is now just survivalcraft 2 too (you should maybe make a video about those games)

Block craft...

I use 1 skin that gives free ingredient for copper armor

[@Mint-SC2]

I just want to know if the developers are working on an update

[@Debates_07]

Its better

[@Erongiloo]

I love minecraf

[@tnereffidsiemanresuymees8703]

forgotten because the developer is lazy no update. The game feels so incomplete yet the developer do update like every 2 years. I wasted like 7 dollars for a dead game..

[@tnereffidsiemanresuymees8703]

not attacking the game it is so good and more enjoyable than Minecraft for me. But I am sad of how incomplete it is

[@Krauser184]

SurvivalCraft has 1 developer 😂 While Minecraft have tons of developers 😂

[@patfre]

It might be a clone but its far better than what bedrock edition have become (and no that’s not just because of market place which is bad on its own) Mojang simply made it from S to shit tier

[@Homelanderwasright]

minecraft was released in 2009 so ye they ripped it off.

[@dirwanklana]
