Minecraft is a sandbox video game developed and published by Mojang Studios, first released as an early-access alpha in 2009 and formally in November 2011, since ported to numerous platforms. Pycraft is a command-line, text-based 2D take on Minecraft written in Python, best run on *nix systems with Python 3.3+, featuring a crafting system with recipes and tool tiers, plus an optional C renderer for improved performance over the default Python one.
How it differs from the original
Represents Minecraft as a 2D, terminal-driven game rather than a 3D graphical one, with only a small subset of the original's blocks, tools, and crafting recipes implemented.
Getting started
Run it directly with Python once the dependencies are installed; an optional, faster C renderer can be compiled separately and then selected from the in-game settings.
