I'm really sorry...

Indeed, school is quite time-consuming (I'm in highschool final year), and moreover my math club requires some work too.
But the main reason that made me stop this project is that the result isn't really fun to play.

I didn't expect much more speed, but I still am quite disappointed.
Currently, I'm working on a Touhou-like shooter in lua, but I will finish it quite soon and I'll most likely go back to nCraft.

This is an outrage!
nCraft is very fun to play, if you have the time keep on pushing who else agrees with me?

I do!

If we didn't, why would we be asking for more?

Just saying : Do you guys know that school work (at least in France) can be really time consumming ?
If Chockosta hasn't updated its game for months it's likeky because he has a lot of stuff at school.

Well it depends of people, since Hayleia seems quite active working on stuff. I think stuff like Chockosta or sometimes even people dropping out of calc stuff can have some influence too.

Besides, if you sleep 8 hours every night, then go to school for 7 hours (including lunch), study/do homework for 4 hours and take 3 hours to eat other meals+do chores, then that leaves you 2 hours to work on calc projects at least 4 times a week (weekends and friday evening being work and/or hanging out with friends.

In my case I found the game rather fun to play despite not having every Minecraft feature. Just make sure to use Nover and it runs at a quite decent and playable speed. The only real short term improvement I would suggest that could make gameplay signifiantly better is having collision detection so you can't get as close to walls (that way you can still see anything when turning around).

Also if you are concerned about speed, you could maybe make the code open-source or something so other people can help too. There are people around here who are crazily good optimizers who might know some tricks you didn't think about, which could allow you to make your game run even faster.

Maybe he has programmers ‘block’
If he does, I hope he told it Chockosta la vista

From what I remember he lost interest because he couldn't find any way to make the game run faster and was very disappointed at the speed so far. Working with 3D is very challenging so that can be understood. I don't remember if the source is published but if it's the case then someone could maybe help, though.

If he does, I hope he told it Chockosta la vista

That is one epic line
