Sorry, didn't know where to put this thread so dropped it in the lounge Green_Happy1

Bloxel is a flexible, lean, and fast voxel engine written in C# with the XNA framework. It can be used for a plethora of games, including RPGs, shooters, and sandboxes.

From the stuff I've seen it looks pretty good actually, guys should try this. People have used it to make a game called War of the voxels, which actually looks very much like AoS 0.75 but with better graphics. Video of it link:

The guys who made his say "Although the graphics and terrain look a bit weird, it will get better soon"

There is an Other Games section. Perhaps we'll move it there.

what is this crap,
you don't download the client but some launcher that is going to download everything for you.

GG following the shitheads like oracle and adobe, where you download an installer for your installer...

I think the "screenshot" they posted up there is a mockup anyways. Totally ripped off Ace of Spades. And, yeah, the downloader is tiny and downloads "the most recent updates" and then the whole thing just promptly crashes after telling my my video card needs to be updated. Total crapware.

XNA sucks. Reminds me of Terraria. All the specs are fine it's just that the fucking XNA fucks everything up.
