About minetest/minetest
Luanti, formerly known as Minetest, is a free open-source voxel game engine designed for easy modding and game creation. Written in C++ with C++17 standards, it provides a complete platform for building voxel-based games similar to Minecraft, with Lua scripting support for customization and content creation.
The engine includes a full-featured player interface with standard controls for movement, building, mining, and interaction within voxel worlds. It supports multiplayer gameplay, configurable user settings, an inventory system, and various camera modes including a minimap. The application manages game data through organized directory structures for binaries, shared assets, and user-created content, with configuration handled through a standard configuration file.
Luanti targets multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, and macOS, with compilation support and Docker containers available for development and server deployment. The project is actively maintained with a semantic versioning scheme tracking major features and breaking changes, making it suitable for both casual players and developers looking to create custom voxel-based games and experiences.
