    Actually no. Luanti is to Minecraft as Roblox is to… Interactive Physics? It’s a game engine, not a game. GMOD is still a game.

      i didn’t want to use roblox as an example as luanti is more focused on a single typ of game, and is playable in and of itself. gmod’s sandbox is akin to the default sandbox in luanti, basically a creative mode.

      also i didn’t want to imply that luanti has child exploitation…

        Luanti isn’t playable in and of itself; you need Minetest Game, which is a different thing. Just like Roblox, the similarities between games are usually as little as character + movement + 3d-ing

          oh yeah they separated it out didn’t they. last time i hacked on it, minetest game was partly implemented in the core in c++.
