### Gameplay
You start in a randomly-generated world made entirely of cubes. You can explore
the world and dig and build almost every block in the world to create new
structures. You can choose to play in a “survival mode” in which you have to
fight monsters and hunger for survival and slowly progress through the
various other aspects of the game, such as mining, farming, building machines, and so on
Or you can play in “creative mode” in which you can build almost anything instantly.

## How to play (quick start)
### Getting started
* **Use the world generator “v6”!**
2017-02-22 02:26:08 +03:00
* **Punch a tree** trunk until it breaks and collect wood
* Place the **wood into the 2× 2 grid** (your “crafting grid” in your inventory menu and craft 4 wood planks
* Place the 4 wood planks in a 2× 2 shape in the crafting grid to **make a crafting table**
* **Rightclick the crafting table** for a 3× 3 crafting grid to craft more complex things
* Use the **crafting guide** (book icon) to learn all the possible crafting recipes
* **Craft a wooden pickaxe** so you can dig stone
2017-02-08 20:17:11 +03:00
* Different tools break different kinds of blocks. Try them out!
* Continue playing as you wish. Have fun!
### Farming
* Find seeds
* Craft hoe
* Rightclick dirt or similar block with hoe to create farmland
* Place seeds on farmland and watch them grow
* Collect plant when fully grown
* If near water, farmland becomes wet and speeds up growth
### Furnace
* Craft furnace
* Furnace allows you to obtain more items
* Upper slot must contain a smeltable item (example: iron ore)
* Lower slot must contain a fuel item (example: coal)
* See tooltips in crafting guide to learn about fuels and smeltable items

This game requires [Minetest ](http://minetest.net ) 0.4.16 (or later) to run,
2017-05-23 21:19:51 +03:00

officially supported. There is no support whatsoever for running MineClone 2
in development versions of Minetest.

your Minetest data directory. Consult the help of Minetest to learn more.

## Project description
The main goal of **MineClone 2** is to be a clone of Minecraft and to be released as free software.
The focus on this clone lies especially on gameplay and to reflect it as good as possible.
Ideally, no gameplay features will be added or removed.
A secondary goal is to make modding easy as pie. Minetest is of great help here!
Trying to stay faithful to the original look and feel is a side goal, but not an important one.
If deemed neccessary, MineClone 2 *will* deviate from Minecraft in interface issues.
2017-03-21 00:27:24 +03:00
There's already a built-in crafting guide and a full-blown in-game help system.
2017-02-08 20:17:11 +03:00
Finally, any limitations found in Minetest (the game engine) will be written down in the course
of development.
