When Minecraft creator Notch tweeted last week that he was developing a sequel to Minicraft, his entry in a 2010 48-hour gave development competition, he also mentioned that the new game would need a new name. We kind of thought he was kidding, but now it turns out we were wrong—and he's announced the new title on Twitter.

MiniTale, as it's now called, will be "coming eventually," according to its websites (yes, "sites"—Notch was sure to register both .com and .net, just in case).
