Inspired by the core gameplay of Minecraft, the name MineClone2 was not a particularly good one and it seems the developers were aware and so it's gone through a rebrand to be now called VoxeLibre.

    The download .zip is still called “mineclone2_22662.zip”

    Damn. Did they really have to be so blatant with their copy though?

      I know, if you’re going to copy InfiniMiner maybe don’t add Mine to the games name. SMH lazy devs.

        Deep cut that too few people are going to get.

        I mean even the UI, the items, etc, all look very similar.

      Well, it’s a community project. Tons of community members want Minecraft without the Microsoft, so those community members built that. It’s not that someone consciously decided to create a really blatant copy.

      Besides, the name change was specifically motivated by players expecting an exact copy and complaining or filing bug reports when the devs took some liberties in their design.
