Reposting here: To clarify any confusion, I aim for this game to become an entirely original creation with unique assets and ideas. I'm using Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 merely as a game design reference to develop the game engine. There won't be a release until all content is original.

Still runs better than 3ds edition

Wow... I think the project kinda seems crazy to do, but I'm also really impressed anyone would tackle something like this. Also surprised the DreamCast could run it?

It will only better from here. I haven't even utilized the all of the Dreamcast's graphical capabilitites yet.

Will it have realms support 😲

A Flock of Meese2 years ago

There are no plans to support Realms or connect to any of Microsoft or Mojang's server. Later, this game will have completely different gameplay, textures, and other assets.

Crammed 25 million blocks into 24 MB of RAM and boosted render distance to 12 chunks on the #Gamecube, now surpassing the render distance of Minecraft on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, and matches the Switch (docked). Achieved through a month of extensive optimization. #retrogaming #retrocomputing #indiegamedev #gamedev #Dreamcast

I ported my #Gamecube game engine to PC, and even in its unoptimized state, it runs at 60 FPS with a minimum render distance of 64 chunks on my laptop -- double the maximum render distance of Minecraft: Java Edition. Powerful hardware won't be necessary for the game to run smoothly at long render distances. The PC port will streamline the debugging process, allowing for faster improvements across all platforms, including the Gamecube and #Dreamcast, and Wii. #indiegamedev #gamedev

I've been mostly working on the internal systems lately for my #Dreamcast engine. The PC port gave me the debugging tools I needed to improve complex systems like the memory manager. • Audio is now working on the Dreamcast version • The renderer runs 20% faster on the Dreamcast • Heap allocation is 300% faster on average and 200% faster on worst case. While this had minimal impact on performance for the #Gamecube and PC versions, it was a significant bottleneck on the Dreamcast. • Increased real-time heap defragmentation throughput by using a new multi-regional heap structure, which also sets the foundation for DRAM bank-aware memory allocation. There's still plenty of room for more optimizations in Meese Engine. In fact, some optimizations found in Minecraft have yet to be implemented in this engine! #retrogamedev #indiegamedev

In my #Minecraft-like engine, mountains with this level of scale and detail were once out of reach on the #Dreamcast. But with recent optimizations, they're now a reality: • The renderer is now 19% faster, achieving near-peak efficiency at 30 cycles per vertex (up to 6.67 million vertices per second) • Aggressive occlusion culling reduces polygon counts by over 50% • Lighting and meshing is now 73% faster • Terrain generation is now 6% faster • Optimized frustum culling #indiegamedev #gamedev #Gamecube

Minecraft clone gameplay on a real GameCube. The download for this is on my website, linked in my profile. Unlike Minecraft legacy console edition, the world is truly infinite in size.
