The web demo I remember was only creative mode the survival didn't work properly or something. There were sponge blocks that would soak up water. I also had my son play the demo. I bought the dev version not long after. My first world was snowy because randomly some seeds would be set to a winter world. This was before biomes or even the Nether.

The game had many issues in the early days. Falling through the bottom of the world because there were holes. I remember people in the forum complaining that their creations caught on fire because Markus made lava burn things instead of just being decorative and then there was one patch which made chests explode if you opened them. I still play sometimes but it just doesn’t feel the same anymore, most likely due to nostalgia.
