I no longer play Minecraft since I deleted my Microsoft account almost a year ago, but it interesting to see it following the rest of Big Tech into "Age Verification."

Making a highly programmable/"hackable" drop-in replacement for Minecraft would kinda complete the FOSS gaming scene overnight.

Classicube is a neat time capsule of the pre-alpha days, but sadly limited itself to the 2009 featureset to keep Microsoft's lawyers at bay and doesn't have Luanti.
Doesn't even have the prototype Survival mode where you shoot arrows with the tab key, don't need tools and spawn with 10 blocks of TNT.
Would love to expand it into a combat-centric version of the game, with an emphasis on destruct-o-physics.

Luanti treats itself as more of a game engine than a game: for better or worse (repository has loads of simple "proof-of-concept" games).
