Hooray!

It was past time to drop the word "test" from the name of this very complete game engine.

“Luanti” is a wordplay on the Finnish word luonti (“creation”) and the programming language Minetest Luanti employs for games and mods, Lua.

What a lovely name!

I just tried this the other day, it was quite complete and fun to play!

What's the game in the blog background?

That's just Minetest Game: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Minetest/minetest_game/

It shows the coniferous forest biome and the recently introduced god rays, if that's what throws you off.

Are you sure? Maybe its just a texture pack then.

Oh right, I didn't even really register the texture pack, because I play with that one a lot: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Zughy/soothing32/
