    Has anyone got Minecraft to run on the neo. I'm a noob and I have downloaded the minecraft.jar file. Once I unzipped it there was no executable file. Would anyone have any detailed directions on how to load the program. I didn't realize it wasn't include in the build. I bought the neo so my son could learn pyth

    Dear Brian,
    I really don't know how to help: I hate Minecraft, never played it. I hope someone else will pop up with an answer! But for retrogaming and gaming in general I'd suggest UDOO Quad, I've personally seen SuperSmash Bros running on UDOO Quad so I guess more-retro stuff (the one that I prefer) would work too. Just a question however: you downloaded UDOObuntu 2 thinking that you will have had downloaded something including Minecraft, did you? How come?

    Minecraft is part of raspberry pi basic is build. So I thought it would be part of neo's. I too hate Minecraft but the Linux version allows python line coding. A great tool for when kids master scratch to take them too the next level. It would have motivated my son to learn.

    Dear Brian,
    I guess it surely got aces in the hands since it's so popular, but we didn't design NEO for gaming, we designed it for embedded projects. Sorry man, as I said, I hope someone else will help you out with this.
