Minecraft Pocket Edition May Not Release Today Due to “Nasty Bug”

Minecraft Pocket Edition was set to launch today, giving Android owners access to the mobile remake of popular indie game, Minecraft.  Unfortunately, mobile gamers might have to wait a bit longer.

According to Mojang's Daniel Kaplan, a "nasty bug in Minecraft – Pocket Edition that needs to be fixed before release" might cause a delay in the release.

Kaplan tweeted a few minutes ago, "Im not sure it will come out today :("

The mobile version of Minecraft has a price tag of $6.65 and gives users access to Creative Mode, with the reassurance by Daniel Kaplan that survival mode would eventually be added to the Pocket Edition.

Q.U.B.E, an acronym for 'Quick Understanding of Block Extrusion' is a single-player game where the player must complete challenging puzzles to advance through each level. To finish puzzles the player needs to manipulate colored cubes in the environment by controlling them with their special gloves. The player is able to extrude (drag out) red cubes, launch themselves using blue cubes, pull out multiple sets of yellow cubes and strategically use timed cubes.
