This version is the first version of Minecraft released in 2010, and it reintroduces sound and music to the game.

Install this version with python -m pip install minecraft-python==0.31.20100104 or, from source, python setup.py build_ext --inplace.

Pyglet, Cython, Pillow, PyOgg, and NumPy are required dependencies and can easily be installed with pip. Use the versions specified in requirements.txt.

For audio to work you will either need PyOgg which is recommended, or FFmpeg which has to be installed on your system.
GStreamer is also supported on Linux through the gst-python library. PyOgg requires that your system have one of the Opus, FLAC, or Vorbis codecs. OpenAL is required and comes bundled with the source on Windows.

Run python -m mc.net.minecraft.Minecraft to launch the game. Minecraft: Python Edition should be compatible with any modern platform that supports OpenGL and Cython.

Run with the argument -fullscreen to open the window in fullscreen mode. The argument -creative will force the game to be in creative mode.

Press I to open your inventory. Early tools are in the inventory, but they serve no function yet. Press F7 to take a cool isometric screenshot and F5 to toggle rain. Other keys are listed in the regular options menu.

The only mobs around are the Rana mobs, but they don't drop anything when killed. Arrows and mushrooms are unusable.
