Playing a Deleted Minecraft Version - Pocket Edition Lite

Looking back on this deleted version of Minecraft Pocket Edition has me tearing up from the nostalgia ;D Enjoy this trip down memory lane and comment your thoughts on the video! Please like, subscribe and check out my Twitch for streams coming soon - www.twitch.tv/jonezeeguy

THIS. THIS WAS MY FIRST VERSION! I KNEW I WASN'T IMAGINING IT! I have a really distinct memory of hiding from zombies in a 1x1 glass 'house' with a single torch on the floor. Edit: Kinda wild how many of us actually did this 😅

I remembered playing the Lite version, at this point I call this history.

Man THIS is where I started Minecraft. Me and my friend didn't have PCs capable of running Minecraft so we often played on our tablets. I remember pocket editon was missing so much stuff from the regular version. Pocket edition at first had no weather effects, no nether, no enchanting, no day night cycle in creative, few biomes and finite worlds. However over time they slowly added all this stuff into the game and every time they came out with a new update we were SO happy lol. I kinda miss this ngl.

A minor detail I like for some reason is that the “LITE” naming scheme was actually the standard App Store branding for any “demo” version of a paid game. Doodle Jump Lite, Angry Birds Lite, half the apps on every kid’s phone had those 4 big letters draped over the home icon. By the late 2010s Apple themselves started phasing this out, rejecting apps with multiple versions in favor of one free-to-download app which uses IAPs (In-app purchases) to unlock the full content. Now the ftp model is standard, and all Lite versions are dead. In that way this application is not just a relic of Minecraft’s past, but the mobile ecosystem as well, in the days before micro transactions. Lot of reasons to remember this era fondly, lol

I actually used to play this version on my IPad 2 when I was 6. I still have it on my IPad which still works, and I am able to see the 5 worlds I made. It brings me back to the old days when your world was 256x256 and the only biome was oak or birch, and you only had a set inventory. Currently it runs on the alpha editions of pocket edition. Edit: Omg I never knew that I would get so many likes! Thx a lot

It wasn’t boring at all, at least when I was a kid it was so easy to be entertained by this game because of how massive it was, and being able to play it, even a extremely dumbed down version of it was still a treat. This game will forever be one of the best ever created

Oh! I used to play this version! I was so scared of zombies, that if I saw them, I delete the game 💀

7:04 holy crap that was the same seed as my favorite survival world back in the days of PE, the sheer level of luck that it was generated was incredible

Seeing the UI with infinite blocks just made so many elementary school memories come flooding back to me. I remember all my stupid little projects and being scared of the night and the weird blank world borders. What a strange and beautiful feeling.

Fun fact: With the old world border, you could fly up so high and actually land on it and walk around. My brother and I did that just to see what would happen, and while nothing interesting did, we could never find our way back to the world itself. The nostalgia is unreal

In my country, instead of it being called the "Lite" version, it was just simply called "Demo". Because of this, I thought the "Lite" version was somehow the superior version, so I made it my mission to somehow get my hands on the Lite version of Minecraft. When I eventually did, I can not describe the disappointment I had when I realized it was identical to the demo version, just with a different name. 😭💀

I remember playing on this version, digging a “secret base” into a cliff near the water with sand below it, placing torches everywhere to make it as light as possible, and wondering why I couldn’t place torches on the ceiling

The good old days of making the dumbest builds for hours and having a wave of sadness wash over you knowing the world would get deleted once you closed the app 💔

I remember that version. One time, a few zombies went into some water, and that's when I called it the "Zombie Pool". I also wondered why most blocks were unavailable.

I searched "Minecraft Lite" out of curiosity because a small memory of it popped into my head and I have never been so pleased with a youtube search. I first played this on my IPad 1(Yes, the first ever original IPad. I still have it) when I was 6 or so and was the first version of minecraft I ever played. Watching this video gave me a massive wave of nostalgia.

2:13 reminded me of the herobrine scene. when i first watched it YEARS ago I thought it was real and it was scary and I was always scared of playing after that video.

Back then me and my buddies spent countless hours on this version of minecraft, it really didn't take all too much to keep us entertained, we made do. Getting a bit teary-eyed over this, thanks for unlocking some tossed off to the side memories.

I remember playing this as a 6 year old. I remember making the tiniest library with like, 2 blocks of room to walk around in. I also remember being extremely proud of this library.

This video unlocked a memory of me messing around with the nether reactor when it came to pocket edition ages ago.
