kokimame / pycraft

A fork of "Minecraft in 500 lines of python" intended to someday be used as a real engine, instead of as a learning example.

PyCraft

A community driven fork of foglemans "Minecraft" repo.

Motivation

The original project had great ideas and implemented really cool things, but it was primarily designed around teaching. This project is intended to create a community-driven engine for complicated voxel/roguelike games which ultimately can use and extend GURPS.

The Generic Universal RolePlaying System, or GURPS, is a tabletop role-playing game system designed to allow for play in any game setting.

This project will be very permissive in accepting pull-requests.

It is currently pre-alpha quality.
