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
- Content: Collection of custom mods and textures — no built-in worlds included
- Distribution: Windows installer + Android APK
Current Playability¶
- ✅ Download and play locally (Windows / Android)
- ✅ 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
