Here we have one of those multi-talented programmers I keep talking about. The same programmer did the code, high-quality sprite illustration, and even the music to the youtube video (which was pretty good, and matched the nature of the time lapse video). I am inspired by this. I'm going to do this the next time I work on a game. Has anyone used time-lapse screencap software they can suggest?

If you are Mac/Unix you can use cron every minute and screencapture/scrot...

To me the really impressive part is his ability to stay attentive. He never strayed away, starting surfing the web etc.

That game is from the Minecraft guy [1], here is his blogpost [2]. [1] http://www.minecraft.net/ [2] http://notch.tumblr.com/post/998637682/minecraft-alpha-v1-0-...

I just wanted to present a warning about Minecraft: That game is distilled binary crack. I have lost a couple of entire days to the damned thing, and I only purchased it a couple of weeks ago. So just be careful if you try it out. I'm a recovering Minecraftoholic.
