Ebbinor

What it is: A custom voxel game built on the Luanti engine (formerly Minetest). Started as a fun project with Joe's kids — they encouraged him to keep building it into what it is today.

Tagline: Roleplay, sandbox, survival, or creative fun.

Stack

  • Engine: Luanti (formerly Minetest) — with custom core engine modifications

  • Distribution: Windows installer + Android APK

  • ✅ Can join most available Luanti servers
  • ✅ Can run a local-only server
  • ❌ No persistent dedicated online server yet

Status

Maintenance mode — not actively developed right now. Core is stable.

Dedicated Server Goal

The primary goal is a persistent always-on dedicated server for Ebbinor so players don't need a local server to play together.

Current plan: Oracle Cloud Free Tier (Ampere A1 — 4 OCPU / 24GB RAM) - A1 instance not yet obtained (out of capacity) - VM.Standard.E2.1.Micro (1GB RAM) available as fallback for small player counts - Port: UDP 30000 - Server will need Ebbinor's custom mods/content deployed alongside Luanti
