Getting this out of the way. It's standalone. Not a Minecraft mod and the pre-alpha test is live right now.
Why voxel art?
Using voxel art and 32x32px textures allows the team to rapidly develop and deploy content. Content is King, and we hope to keep up with our players. We believe we have found the best balance in this art style to deliver a compelling and aesthetically pleasing world while allowing for rapid development. It also allows us to use a myriad of pipeline tools for developing assets and allows for the world to be 100% server side and streamed seamlessly to our players.
Is there building / terraforming like MineCraft?
EverCraft Online is designed to deliver a classic MMO experience. To that end, terraforming and free building is not currently being implemented as a player feature. Down the road we are looking at players placing buildings and other crafted prefabs in the world, but it is not a priority. With that in mind, we do have MineCraft-like tools that allow us to quickly and collaboratively build the world for our players and allowing the use of some of those features in a curated way is not entirely off the table for the future. However, this will never be the focus of the game. We hope players enjoy our hand crafted and highly designed environments.
