Minecraft is a fun arcade game where you explore lost worlds, kill monsters and uncover various secrets. This is "The Twitch TV Update."
Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things.
It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It’s pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea.
What's New in 1.7.5:
- Minecraft Realms adds mini game support

- Various bugs have been taken care of
To use the Twitch broadcasting you need to link your Mojang account with your Twitch account. This only works with migrated accounts (in other words, if you login using your email address instead of your username, you can use the Twitch integration). The linking is done via the account settings, which can be found here:
To start broadcasting, simply press F6 while playing. You find more options in the menus.
The integration currently only works on Windows Vista or later, and on Mac OS X Lion (10.7) or later.
