Great article. Gives me flashbacks to the time someone sent me a link to a newly-released version of Minecraft, and it turned out to be using my own voxel engine. :D
(No credit of course, and the marketing copy around it made it sound like it was all their own code. Welcome to open source I guess!)
- rubatuga 5y agoDo tell more.
- Agentlien 5y agoI would love more details! Could you please link the voxel engine? Which version of Minecraft was this?
- fenomas 5y agoAnnoyingly there's not much to tell. It was a minimal web version, released as a one-off marketing thing and then never updated, and Mojang didn't reply when I tried to get in touch (via contacts at microsoft). So I never really found out anything about it. The game is still live though: https://classic.minecraft.net https://classic.minecraft.net - Originally it supported multiplayer, but that stopped working the day after the game launched. The voxel engine is here: https://github.com/andyhall/noa/tree/develop https://github.com/andyhall/noa/tree/develop
- webXL 5y ago> Minecraft Classic - official game from Mojang (I'm as surprised as you are) lol. Microsoft should just release all the source for this since Minecraft isn't exactly state of the art these days. The brand is nearly all of the value.
