Minetest breaks the chains of being a Minecraft clone with a new name — Luanti
Minetest, a voxel game engine created to be something like a Minecraft clone, is finally smashing apart the chains to become more its own unique thing.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
It's finally time. After years of deliberation, #Minetest is finally ready to adopt a new identity and prove it has moved beyond its original purpose. We can finally move past the "mining" and the "testing" and focus on making this platform the best it can be.

The latest release of Minetest with version 5.9.0 is out now, bringing new features and work towards using SDL2 for this free and open source voxel game engine.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Here's a similar thing made for #Minetest for the game jam. It's even more impressive given how limited the UI API is for Minetest - this is actually done using the HUD API using the player camera movement to get mouse movement
Minetest 5.8.0 is out now with improved settings, Minetest Game no longer default gamingonlinux.com/2023/12/mine…

Minetest 5.8.0 is out now with improved settings, Minetest Game no longer default
Minetest, the popular free and open source voxel game engine, one that can be used to play various different games (like a Minecraft clone) just released version 5.8.0.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
#Minetest Game Jam is back for 2023!
From December 1st to December 21st, make a Minetest game from scratch following a theme.
3 weeks, 3 winners, $300 in prizes. What will you make?
The theme will be announced December 1st, so stay tuned
All information about the jam is at jam.minetest.net/
#Minetest 5.8 will have an improved settings menu
The new design should be much easier to use. Settings are organised in a more logical way, and you can see more settings without digging into a huge advanced settings tree
#Minetest no longer ships with a default game.
For a long time, Minetest shipped with a default game called "Minetest Game". This was a fairly barebones survival game and gave a bad first impression. Minetest is all about customisation, the choice of multiple games is a big part of that. Now, new users are directed to choose a game using ContentDB
We'll be making further improvements in the future to make this process easier to understand
We're now in feature freeze for #Minetest 5.8! This is a period of time before a release where we only do bug fixes
Highlights:
* Minetest no longer ships with a default game
* A redesigned Settings GUI
* Improved Android controls, can place nodes with single tap
* Improved antialiasing filters
