Prelude of the Chambered (made by Notch)

[Wanted Bob]

Didn't see this posted anywhere, and I felt it deserved some attention.

Prelude of the Chambered is a Zelda-esque game that was made by Notch for a 48 hour game making competition. He had a livestream up of him programming the game from scratch and I personally found it fascinating to watch. The game itself is quite impressive for one made in 48 hours IMO, constantly throwing in new areas, enemies, and game mechanics to keep it fresh. I haven't finished it yet (the game is certainly not easy), I've made it up to the Temple boss before dying. Will probably complete it later.

Managed to complete it with all 12 trinkets in like 28 minutes. Had 1 health left. Curse that last boss!

Balls! I think I also had 12 trinkets and played for around half and hour, but died - I'm assuming I was close to the end? Those damn zombies, I found it pretty hard to not get hit by whatever they were shooting at me.
