Notch is getting married this weekend and to celebrate, he's providing a gift code with every purchase. Good deal if you picked up the humble bundle and got addicted to MC during your trial.
Sorry about the rushed post, heading out the door.

Wow, nice deal.
I hate hangover buys….
Hmm $10 aud a copy…
But will it ever come to steam??
I can't see why it would, notch makes 100% profit now, why would he want to share that.
I'd assume for the same reason why anyone distributes their games over Steam - to sell more copies.
But yeah I'm not holding my breath.
How are they stopping the pirates from playing though?
Minecraft uses a DRM model that's quite restrictive, actually. You need to login to their server if you want to play, even single player. The pirates have a way around it though, so you'll still be able to find pirated version on the net, if you look around.
Then again, Steam games have also been pirated all over, so Steam is not piracy-proof either.
So I heard, that is.
Notch/Minecraft have probably received more media coverage than every game on Steam over the last couple of years…. =P
Anyone wanna split the purchase? I can send you money via Paypal :P
EDIT: Thanks, already split this with a fellow ozBargainer!
That's completely wrong. I've put more hours to playing this than most of my $50-$100 games and this keeps getting more free content as time goes on.
Obviously you haven't played it :P
I don't understand why the total shows as 15pounds? Sorry for my Noobiness.
Are you sure it says Pounds and not Euros?
The price of the game is 14.95 euros. I'm assuming the reference to it costing "$10" comes from the fact that 14.95 euros works out to about AU$20 and you get two copies of the game due to the 2-for-1 deal.
I just bought it, and the actual cost through Paypal was AU$21.16. I received an email with the gift code immediately.
richest beta software programmer ever, id marry him too
Well, strictly speaking, Bill Gates would be the richest beta software programmer ever…know how Microsoft beta-tests their software? They start selling it :)
or call it vista
I'd say Google.
Holy crap, you can play it in your browser!
Looks like I'm gonna waste a lot of time in the near future…
This game is the definition of good programming imo
HOLY CRAP PIXELS!
Did you neg the deal cos the game is a mite… pixelated?
Anyone else want to go halfs? (PM me)
Also, people doubting this game, please please please try out the free version.

Just sent you a message!
Gotta love the kindness ozbargainers, splitting the deals.
Just bought it too, well worth the money. Although i recommend everyone get familiar with mods like CJB Mod, makes the game 123897346123x better IMHO.
Happy Mining.
I bought 1 as a gift (don't play myself), but that did not come with the additional code :(
Does anyone know how to contact them?
It states gift purchases don't get a gift code. So you forfeit the copy for yourself if you do it that way.
My mistake.
It states it here: http://notch.tumblr.com/post/8829997577/wedding-weekend
Bloody well hidden! Noice! NOT!
you could try twitter, facebook or his blog: http://notch.tumblr.com/post/8829997577/wedding-weekend good luck!
anyone have a copy they want to sell?
damn, last month I paid full price for it!
Me too :( figured others here could benefit though.
Willing to buy a gift code if anyone planned to go halves with someone who pulled out, just PM me.
I can send a giftcode for $10.00. PM me if interested.
You don't have PM enabled… If you still have a code can you PM me?
Thanks morphio. The code is now yours.
