Why the game "Paper Minecraft" 2d was needed is not very easy to explain. Most likely, so that you can play on weak computers and without installation. In any case, although it is inferior to the three-dimensional version, it is not essential.

Gameplay

Unlike 3D, here you cannot move deep into the screen while moving. But to the right, left, up and down - that is, in two planes, the character can walk without restrictions. The user has the opportunity to make a picture in full screen, if such a desire arises.

Immediately after loading, the gamer finds himself in the main menu. Unfortunately, it is not in Russian. But, by analogy with the "big brother" in "Paper Minecraft 2d" everything will be clear. Here it is proposed to start a new game, load the save (for this you need to have a special code), familiarize yourself with the controls, and also set some parameters of the generated world. In the case of a new start, the user will be taken to another menu, where he selects the appearance of the character (only two options: black and white) and the passage mode: peaceful, survival or creative. In the latter, access to all materials in unlimited quantities is open and you can devote yourself entirely to construction. So, cheats, by and large, are not needed.

Creating any objects in the 2D version is no different from the three-dimensional one. Planks and sticks can be made simply in the inventory, but for more complex tools you will need a workbench.

Additional features

If you play Paper Minecraft 2d in survival mode, the ability to save without leaving the game will come in handy. In this case, the user receives a special code. It must be copied and saved in a notepad or in a Word document. Then the next time you boot, copy and paste it into a special window again.

Despite such innovations, the user will play calmly without lags. True, provided that he has a stable Internet with good speed. Otherwise, all actions of the character will be very late.

Check out the instructions carefully! There are sure to be two or three algorithms for creating something new and interesting! In the game, it is important to watch the indicators of life and food, which in no case should approach the minimum, since then the game can stop at any moment.

It is interesting that in Paper Minecraft, as, in general, in the standard one, there are two game modes: survival and item creation.

Movement in the game is controlled by the WASD buttons. Actions with blocks are carried out with the mouse, and items are selected by numbers from 1 to 9. Shift is responsible for running, and F is for eating.

There are many enemies in the game (in survival mode), which sooner or later will have to face. If you want to win, you have to defeat your enemies. Moreover, you can also extract resources from enemies!

There are a lot of crabs crawling in the game. They need to be feared, because they can easily bite you, significantly reducing vital signs.

Purpose of the game

The goal of the game is to teach gamers how to create useful things in the "creative" mode and survive and fight off enemies in the "survival" mode. In everyday life, we often have to combine both of these processes. So why not train them in the game? In games, learning is always cheaper and less painful than in real life. So, sit down at "Paper Minecraft" and start playing right now!

The first thing that distinguishes Minecraft from paper from the progenitor is the cost. The price of a licensed copy of the "classic" is $26, while "Paper Minecraft" is available for free. The new sandbox was created using the popular Scratch program and posted on the official website in free access. Anyone can go there and come up with their own version of the game, even about paper Minecraft, even about the pony from "Friendship is a miracle." There are a lot of such toys on Scratch. There are already about a hundred of Minecraft made of paper. They are all different, but have a few things in common:

  • 2D graphics (as opposed to 3D for regular Minecraft),
  • More or less the same set of control keys,
  • Paper figurines as the main game element.

Despite the fact that experienced developers consider the Scratch programming language to be fun for schoolchildren, any of the games created on it provide users with a lot of exciting adventures and emotions. "Paper Minecraft" is also like that. Players have to master mining crafts, build houses, develop farms, and solve a lot of other interesting tasks.

To deal with all of the above, you need ingenuity, courage and a little luck. But the main thing that the two-dimensional space of Minecraft made of paper requires from them is to survive at any cost.

The popularity of the paper "sandbox" is growing all the time. It is viewed 14,000 times daily. This means that every 8 seconds a new user opens the toy. As of November 5, 2016, 10,000,000 people have played Paper Minecraft.

How to play

In order for all sections of "Paper Minecraft" to be loaded to the end and you can watch the video in full, download and install the "Minecraft Forge" program.

Then choose one of three game modes:

  • Survival (survival),
  • Peaceful (peaceful life),
  • Creative (creative).

Initially, only two skins for the character are available in Paper Minecraft: dark-skinned Steve and white-skinned Alex. If you want to play as someone else, look for a site with cheats. But don't expect a miracle. No matter how bright the appearance of the character you find, Minecraft from paper will still look like a cartoon drawn by an inept child's hand. We can say that the degree of primitive graphics in it is directly proportional to the complexity of the game itself.

As the name suggests, the main consumable for Paper Minecraft is paper. She is a vital element for survival in the game. Other game items are made from it and wooden bars.

Crafting begins with harvesting wood for work. When it accumulates enough, you will need to open the inventory and put together a workbench. With it, you can build a house for yourself, a barn for animals roaming around, a bunch of other useful things. That is, the survival scheme is the same as in the classic Minecraft, and it will not be difficult for those who have played it before to figure it out.

For beginners who are just getting acquainted with the sandbox genre, Paper Minecraft will be a training-preparation for meeting the real Minecraft. The flat playing space makes it easier to play.

To control the character, use the following set of buttons:

  • Numbers from 1 to 9 - quick access to inventory slots,
  • WASD - movement on water or land,
  • E - open or close inventory,
  • E + space - craft items,
  • Spacebar - jump
  • F - food,
  • Q - take a new element,
  • T - saving the game.
