Early Classic refers to 15 versions of Java Edition Classic released from May 17 to May 28, 2009, that succeeded the private alpha of Classic. It immediately preceded Multiplayer Test (hosted on a different applet page to Early Classic) and contiguously preceded Middle Classic (hosted on the same applet page). The game was now publicly published by Notch for public consumption on Minecraft.net. Creative singleplayer remained the only mode available at this time and there were only a limited amount of blocks available in-game.

Blocks

[edit | edit source]
Bedrock
Unobtainable to the player.
Sand and gravel
Only appear naturally in one block-thick beach (usually by water or in the middle of a landscape). These beaches were always at and below ocean level.
Rather than falling by turning into a falling block entity, sand instantly appears at the lowest point it could go when placed above an air block, without any sort of falling animation.
Gold ore
Found in higher elevations, gold ore was often found in exposed surface-level blobs.
Iron ore
Spawns in huge blobs, sometimes big enough to protrude into 3 caverns, and can have as many as 167 ores.
Coal ore
Logs and leaves
Spawn as trees found around the map.
Water and lava
In the early water test, water rendered as an opaque block. With the addition of lava, both liquids rendered as transparent. Lava was later changed to opaque.
World generation
An infinite ocean surrounds the map.
"Huge" level size.

Trivia

[edit | edit source]
  • Once during development of 0.0.14a, Notch tested vertex offsets of blocks, but was not satisfied, likely in part due to a graphic bug which showed block previews and highlights as cubes.[1]

Notes

[edit | edit source]
  1. ↑ Applet was removed from this page before June 27, 2009.
  2. ↑ No longer playable from June 10, 2009, as the applet was replaced with the new Middle Classic versions.
