Voxel.js - People Here Might Be Interested

Post by redidas »

Not sure if this is the right place, but has anyone else heard about Voxel.js? (http://voxeljs.com/)

I'm not involved in any way, and it isn't even a game yet but...

Its actually a Minecraft-like engine/server being built in Nodejs/Javascript. I bring this up because I know Voxelus was started up but is fizzling now, and there are people here that would like to learn to make games, or are currently working on building games as it is.

Voxel.js has some high-profile Node.js people behind it and is an open-source effort. It'd be cool if any of the talents here or from previous Atmosphir/Voxelus projects got involved, or tried building something with it.

I know nodejs and Javascript, but not game programming really. Maybe its time I learn :)

[Edited to clarify that I'm not involved with it]

I think this would likely go into "Gaming Gossip" or "Technology Talk" but this is a very interesting project. Seems a little glitchy at the moment but very promising!
Thanks for bringing this up :)

Actually, I'm moving this to creative. Because it's a creative project he's working on.
Edit: Wait, what the heck was I thinking? I don't think I read what this actually was.
Uh, sorry for moving this again. It's in Technology Talk now :(

Also: Redidas is back! Awesome! Hi redidas!!!

Oermergerd, redidas?!

It's been like...two years! 0_o
I've been around since 2008. And I'm old. Yay. Pretty sure I notched a fair amount of LOTD/XPs but somehow always like my underrated levels more. Go figure. My best design days are behind me, but I'll try to not be too shabby.

Just want to clarify - I'm not involved with this project in any way. Its just a cool project and has some smart people behind it.

It should be interesting to watch :)
