Latest version is 5.8.0 as I write this. But maybe you don’t need to wait author to update it on Itch to be up-to-date.
Please update the files to the latest version
Dude, you are hurting it by not correcting the instalation error. I would recomend to check how to fix it if you do not know how.
Minetest have a website where you can download the game http://minetest.net/
É um jogo otimo mas presisa ser otimizado
Bug: On the itch desktop app, when you click the install button it does not work.
ye where is the download?
Can't download-install from itch app.
me tooo
m i n e c r a f t
But open source
if i could just download. . .
oof.
Go to their official website
Thank you for making Minetest known on itch too! Keep this updated we want more people to know the project!
It's an open-scorce minecaft, which is great actually! gg
no it is not it is so much better than minecraft , (integrated shaders modding API , subgames ,mod installer ,etc)
ok i didn't know about those things
Random tips related to the game:
I don't know why this happens, but on my pixel 6 the mobile version from the play store freezes randomly, Mostly when I look up or down. Anyone know how to fix this?
Can someone tell me how to play locally with my friends without the need to host a whole server?
If I understand correctly "Host Server" checkbox in main menu will basically do same as "Open to LAN" in MC, at least if you don't have static ip, opened router ports etc.
thanks!
Thank you for making this! I hope this project continues. This really brings back what made minecraft great in the first place:
A game not owned by a multimillion-megacorp made by people who love it, supported by a community who loves to play and mod it.

Can you make an game version that runs on a 32 bit linux system?
just get windows its so much better
true
false
No. It's true!
true bro
He probably has a potato, that's why he is using 32 bit linux
((no offense))
Version 5.6.0 for Windows does not work for me
using Wine 1.6.20 (Gecko 2.21) on my
MX-15 Debian Jessie 32 bit Linux system.
windows is much worse actually here is my linux desktop , now try doing this in windows
what de is this?
There are builds on Debian’s repositories for x86. If you want a more recent version though, check the Debian backports or maybe even ArchLinux32 if you’re willing to deal with dependency spaghetti. (Maybe also check previous work on static builds on Minetest’s GitHub issue tracker.)
this is not an inspiration its just a texture pack
It is not. It's made from scratch using different language (and has very cool modding abilities)
minecraf
no, minetest
🤓
does this game have a dynamic lighting system?
there are mods for it
Lookup Minetest spherical world. And then download v5.4.1 from the official website - or get the flathub/snep version.
There is so much potential with this game.
The only thing missing are shaders.
it is called spheretest and is based on a really old version of minetest , also i would recommend to install 5.61+ because that version includes dynamic shadows + bloom shaders
What Are Nodes?
The nodes are the blocks that the world of minetest is made up of.
cool
your game is amazing but how do your friends join your server?
Hey, We love your game and the friendly community we found on the servers, we make videos on itch.io games we find, if you are interested here it is.
Is Minecraft.
XD
theres an installer issueshoe
wtf i cant install it whyyyy tf
outdated.. version 5.4.1 stable is out... ;-)
looks pretty cool
This game is broken
you go to bin and scroll down to open it
How do i open it
I am confused on how to open the game?
this is unofficial
Very solid game, fully open-source, but surprisingly it’s still not very popular. Has tons of mods and installer for them, look at the official site. If you want to play Minecraft-style in it, use MineClone game mode. If you don’t like Minecraft or want something original, there are other subgames and servers with different style and gameplay.
Este Juego es Para esas Personas que No les sirve el Minecraft Gratis o no lo pueden comprar (Como Yo)
TLauncher Amigo
