A top-down action fighting semi-roleplaying game.
I played quite a bit of it until early 2015. Spiral Knights is an exceptional game, but unfortunately as of the last time I played it, it lacks balance and so it lacks variety.
This is an exception to Java sucks, therefore everything made with Java sucks.

One of the major programming languages.
Unfortunately, Java sucks, therefore everything made with Java sucks.
There are free and open source implementations of Java, which I have limited experience with.

https://www.minecraft.net/
A procedurally generated survival game with shitty graphics, which became popular because it was first-to-market and took advantage of nostalgia.
Unfortunately, Minecraft was never completed and the author fucked off with the money to make another game. Even with extraordinary success, the author didn't make good on promises and the game was never finished.
I loved this game, and even bought it twice to support the developer, but because it was Java it would bring a computer to its knees. Being sold out to Microsoft (for their upcoming virtual reality stuff I'd bet) was bafflingly insulting.

A general editor, although this page has notes on using the Ruby plugin from rubyjedit.org
While it's really cool to have autocompletion, I think the experience of using Kate with my simple modifications is far better than this crap. My next step up from that would have to be a proper IDE.

Apparently I had tinkered with this some time in 2015. I have no recollection of it. Maybe I didn't like it, or maybe it was just an aborted project. It seems neat, I should look into it again some day.
