I’d be interested in a remake of CastleMiner Z. The basic premise of there being a giant dragon, aliens, and weird, cyclopian structures dotting the land (such as the bedrock tower) is very cool. If they leaned heavily into a cosmic horror vibe, I think that would lend to it. Maybe there are other weird, strange, eldritch monsters, not just a dragon but things that live in the ocean or buried beneath the earth. Maybe there are ruins of forgotten civilisations which worshipped outer gods and elder things. Maybe the Dragon is one such elder thing that was worshipped, and its awakening has caused the death of civilisation. There’s lots to build on.
I have great memories of Castle Miner z . The point to us was to get past the blocks to alien weapons . And yes bases were gigantic . This was early or even before Minecraft we paid 20 $ for that. I remember total miner as well. Great memories
Personally, I always treated the distance counter as my goal. The game prominently shows how far you've traveled away from the tower, so that might as well be the official goal of the game. So I did: I tried getting as fast as possible. And what resulted was actually a pretty cool game. Not only did I discover a whole bunch of new biomes I hadn't seen before but the game also got harder and harder, forcing me to upgrade my arsenal in turn. Eventually, when I got far enough, the biomes I had been walking through before started to appear again, only backwards in order. I always wondered what would await me beyond the edges of the outer starter biome. And the answer was quite shocking to 13 year old me. I think this way of playing really is what suits this game well since the horrible building mechanics don't really affect it too much, only becoming necessary when you wanna take a break to craft stuff for your travels. And its strongest point, the exploration and atmosphere really shines.
This was my childhood and I still have it on my Xbox 360. I was having some memories and was wondering if there was any new videos by chance. Love the video you’ve got a new supporter 💜
this game gives me such a specific feeling that nothing ever in my life has ever given me. The closest thing/way I even know how to describe it is like when you have a super cool, crazy dream where there's all sorts of brand new things that suddenly exist and are suddenly possible. Man this game is so fun.
0:13 Technically, Terraria released its 1.0 "main" version before minecraft by a few months, but redigit did most assuredly take some inspiration from MC and the same sources as MC, despite making a very different game.
Did anyone else play this as a kid, forget what the game was called, and then crave the experience of playing this game again for over a decade until you found out the name again??
Literally had the urge to play this game like a couple days ago. They really need to bring it back, it was sooo fun. I think it is way better then minecraft
Is the spleef video and adventurecraft videos archived anywhere? Old playlist shows those as How Minecraft's Biggest Minigame Died and The Mod That Could Have Changed Minecraft.
Or a username that was random letters. Mine was lrqrrjkrsyqjbd i still remember it to this day. I know you wouldn't but you would at least remember the random letters
this game was made before the first version of minecraft with survival so its not a knock off search it up yourself edit: they we're made at the same year but the day is different minecraft: made in November 18, 2011 castleminer z: was made in November 9, 2011
"The first version of Minecraft was released for PC players on May 17, 2009 and it was called Cave Game. After going through alpha and beta versions, the full version was released on November 18, 2011." Double back on your research...
My guy, I know this is old and you probably won’t see this. But terraria stands side by side with Minecraft, with its own take on the blocky sandbox. It’s stood the test of time for a reason and both dev teams actively promote the play of each others games. Do not ever call Terraria, a Minecraft knockoff. Lmao

There’s lots to build on.
There is a kickstarter for cmz remaster
There’s lots to… *build* on?
[rimshot]
A cmz remake is on the way
Minecraft is the best knockoff of castle miner Z
Ong
Castle miner z was released in 2011 so yes it is a knockoff of minecraft
@@banditbuddies728r/wooosh
@@banditbuddies728Minecraft existed since 2009
I had a dream about this yesterday and had the urge to play it or watch a video about it, my childhood is calling me again...

I met my best friend from this game he was on a adventure to the world limit and I joined the rest is history
Im glad i wasnt the only one who thought castle miner z was special
Dude me and my friends would play hours of this games messing around getting blood diamond laser weapons and making huge ass. Fortresses.
survivalcraft will always be in my heart
i played that it's actually hard
They need to bring back all of these Xbox 360 indie games they are so nostalgic
On 360 you can still play online on this game. I have played it with a friend just a week ago and it was fun.
I loved this game and I unearth the ol Xbox 360 just to play this once in a while.
This was my childhood and I still have it on my Xbox 360. I was having some memories and was wondering if there was any new videos by chance. Love the video you’ve got a new supporter 💜
wish i had 360 for this reason
I miss this game and would love to help fund this game.

great vid again. actually terraria released before minecraft but minecraft didnt copy it because they were developed at the same time
both of them even have flavor text telling you to try the other game!
Okay, sounded like you were saying "Toph Stone" for a bit. Was tempted to comment, until the game he made started with "Avatar". I had to comment.
Haha
0:09 Terraria came out before minecraft, it wasn't trying to "recreate it's success" dude :P
i just set up my xbox 350 for the first time in 9 years and realised i still have this, nostalgia
blockstory was also a good knockoff
The goat game fr scared the shit outta me but I still loved it
Thank you for this video! My friend and I just got real nostalgic over this game tonight & it was nice to see a follow-up.

Omg memories of castleminer z
Total miner forge was goated

If anyone remembers Mercenary IQ on castleminor z hmu. We were friends once.
Or a username that was random letters. Mine was lrqrrjkrsyqjbd i still remember it to this day. I know you wouldn't but you would at least remember the random letters
You just brought back my childhood memories I appreciate it ❤😢
I REMEMBER THIS ON RUclips IT WAS SO COOL
Castle miner z was wild and still is ❤
Anyone else remember when you could go to “heaven” where you just went in one direction for miles and miles then you could find lodes of ores 😂
i think total miner forge is a better clone, probably the best
agreed. i still played castle miner and all of these games but total miner was better than minecraft at the time.
Castleminer Z is being remastered as we speak
Will the unknown armies, videos be reuploaded?
rip castleminer z, i miss you
Total miner was so good too
I want this game to come back
ZDQ Ghost Dogs carried.
I never got to play this back on the 360 but looks pretty cool being it's own thing. Might have to get this on steam :)
If this is the best Minecraft clone, I don't want to know what the worst one is like.
fun fact about castle miner, it is what notch based minecraft off of, long story short, he was inspired and wanted to make something similar.
that's infiniminer
Fire Dragon spawns at distance 100
Total minor forge was good
Do you know if this game has mods?
Memories..
Where's Xenominer?
I love this game
Just realized I wasn't subscribed to Dahomey. How embarassing
so glad you’re back man, you’re the best
I SWEAR i saw all ur vids about 7 or 8 months ago, cause this video I was watching on RUclips on my TV around 7 or 8 months ago, WHAT happened?
I put in extremely hours on this game with friends even sometimes it got spooky 😂😂playing by yourself
Would you like to nakea video about a Survival Craft? I think you will be the first
this game was made before the first version of minecraft with survival so its not a knock off search it up yourself
edit: they we're made at the same year but the day is different
minecraft: made in November 18, 2011
castleminer z: was made in November 9, 2011

Man your stuff is all gone, your stuff is all nothingness now that’s crazy man.
Why are you playing the older version of the game? and on the lowest settings? your making it look bad lol
Because those are the settings for the xbox 360 version
Lol Mcjuggernuggets video XD 1:38
Total miner forge too
Minecraft is the best game
Total Miner Forge is better. 🖕😂
This was good until it came out on Xbox tho
My guy, I know this is old and you probably won’t see this.

Do not ever call Terraria, a Minecraft knockoff. Lmao
"Promo SM"
Infiniminer, also, dislike :D
