    Wikipedia:

    Luanti (formerly known as Minetest, which is now the default game in the engine) is a community-driven, free and open-source voxel game engine, available on various platforms. Originally, Minetest was a voxel game created in October 2010 by Perttu Ahola to explore the mechanics of Minecraft. Over time, Luanti evolved from the original Minetest game into a general game engine as developers integrated new features.

      I remember this from back when it was still called Minetest. I’m actually surprised the name change doesn’t seem to be because of Microsoft lawyers, but just that they wanted to get away from being considered a “Minecraft Clone”.

      I’ll have to check out what’s been happening with it the last few years, it sounds like there’s a lot more to it now.

      It was renamed in 2024
