Minetest 0.4.11 Released As Open-Source Alternative To Minecraft

[mikefreeman]

It's great that we have such a nice, fast alternative version. Unfortunately, this won't satisfy real Minecraft players until it has all the features of Minecraft, and maybe even full compatibility with Minecraft LAN worlds, servers, and Realms. I know I can't really play it for long without wanting the original back. That's just the way it is making a remake of a very popular game.

Does it have creeps or survival mode yet?

My kid was expecting it at night and got bored that nothing came to his built shelter.

Mythrunia is another wonderful project, seems to have been inactive for quite a while:

A FLOSS counterpart of Minecraft is what should be used by the Raspberry Pi instead of adding Minecraft.
Would be great if the Minetest project got more attention, development.
Would be packaged and size optimised to be included as a default game on distro's that are casual gamer user oriented together with Supertuxkart, card games, other simple games,...
