Hi all. Wanted to announce our new release on Lemmy before that other place even if it's just a few minutes before :).

Survive, farm, build, explore, play with friends, and do much more. Inspired by a well known block game, pushing beyond.

How to play:

Download Minetest

Install MineClone2 from ContentDB

  • Click "Browse Online Content" and filter by Games (select "Games" from the dropdown box)
  • Find "MineClone2" (should be first on the list or on the first page)
  • Click the [+] button next to MineClone2 and wait for download to finish
  • Click "Back to Main Menu"

Create new world and play

  • Click "Start Game" tab
  • At the bottom click the MineClone2 icon (the 2 dirt with grass blocks)
  • Click "New", give your world a name
  • You can leave seed blank or put in a word of your choice
  • Select your new world
  • Click "Play Game" and enjoy!

Can you give a little overview of what mineclone2 is/includes?

Erm. It's mostly a minecraft clone originally based on Pixel Perfection texture pack which was open source licence, but is increasingly getting more of it's own art, and some unique features. Burgers to lure villagers for example. I was told bookcases that stored books was in the MineClone2 first. It's a pretty solid game and very playable but certain parts still need to be implemented. Redstone is not quite where it needs to be yet. Mobs are progressing, but need a little work still, but for a FOSS game on a FOSS engine, you cannot go better! :)

I was impressed by how much content and how playable it was, and it goes from strength to strength.

really like it ... The mobs from pigs to zombies and skeletons, are the best mobs I have seen in minetest yet. now we need some mod makers to make it even more awesome! I know, I know, copying popular minecraft mods seems uncreative, but really would like some technic modpack for this + some Aether Mod. Maybe add some creative spin as well!

Created an Equivalent exchange mod for default minetest , eventually want to support mineclone as well, for that I need to change some dictionary entries. And to polish the mod, add support to generate unknown EMC values based on recipes.
