Minecraft maker Mojang (really, Markus “Notch” Persson) was working on a first-person shooter with another company, but that has now been officially canceled. Gone before you could get excited about it. Fortunately, this project was only in the prototype stage before it got canned.

Notch toldJoystiqthat the project was killed because “Mojang did not want more external dependencies.” Also: “The success ofMinecraftmeant we could focus on projects fully owned by us.”
