But they're not recreating Minecraft. They're recreating one of the most common tutorials on the internet that shows a simple voxel overworld and nothing else. That's not Minecraft.
- lukan 10d agoImportant distinction, but I would debate the "most common tutorials on the internet" claim.
- BlobberSnobber 10d agoI think you meant “pedantic distinction”. Everyone reading that comment understands that recreating Minecraft is a very common tutorial for game development, not literally one of the most common tutorials on the internet in general.
- lukan 10d agoWe are on HN, I thought that goes without saying.
- cheevly 10d agoOnly Minecraft is Minecraft. Is that the bar for creating Minecraft?
- jere 8d agoIt just kills me how there is this meme that minecraft is just walking around on a bunch of grass and dirt voxels and if you have that, you have minecraft. It was way, way more complicated than that even 15 years ago.
