About Minetest-c55

Minetest is a sandbox building game, inspired somewhat by Infiniminer but mostly by Minecraft, created by Perttu "celeron55" Ahola. The gameplay is very similar to Minecraft's, consisting of creating and destroying blocks in a local or online 3D environment. Minetest is a Free and Open Source Software, released under the GPL. It was done this way to be more readily available to Linux users, and so that random people (like you!) could fix bugs and experiment effectively. Download it today and get started!
