- This isn't Minecraft. It's Hytale.
Just kidding. Today I am playing the open source Minecraft, Minetest. It features a lot of the core mechanics of Minecraft with some interesting changes. For example the best place to find Minecraft diamonds is normally -64, where as in Minetest the diamonds don't start until -1024! It also has a mod called Mesecons which adds the ability to use 'redstone', although it functions very differently. This Minecraft clone gave me serious Minecraft nostalgia.

MINETEST! www.minetest.net/
Thanks for your patience on the new vids!
I dedicated myself to solving my pop/crackle audio issues that have persisted for years (and multiple PCs and operating systems!). Using a custom output on OBS worked, but it lead to some horrible issues where 3-4 seconds would be cut off the end of each clip... a nightmare for someone who records in 3-4 second clips 😭
Can't wait for the next hermitcraft video
sick vid, love ur videos
wot
Hope you fix it Mumbo!
Great to hear! I’m so excited for more videos to cone
It brings hope to my heart when I see that small indie developers can still come out with original game ideas like this.
lol
Lol
"Original"
In 10 years from now everyone will be playing MineTest, and the kids won't even remember what a Minecraft is.
This is literally just MincedMeat tho
So important thing to note is that Minetest is a bit more like an engine than a full game. The survival Minecraft-clone-thing is mainly a proof of concept.
You don't need a proof of of concept for a thing that has already succeeded
@@randomcatname7792 Proof of concept for the engine. It proves the engine works and provides a testing ground for development.
@@randomcatname7792 Have you seen many opensource 3d voxel game engines other than minetest?
From what I understand, you have to mod in the mobs and the Minecraft survival elements.
@@randomcatname7792 it also acts as a demonstration for how to use the actual system - kinda like sandbox in gmod or the builtin mods in teardown
Just wanted to point out, as someone who worked in the minetest community for years, the project focuses more on being a platform for people to make their own games (through modes or entire games made in it) and the basic subgames provided are generally very simplistic and just showcase basic code patterns. There's a lot more to check out!

@@Myticalcattnip of course, there's many ways to do that. I can't really direct you to one precise workaround at I've quit for so long I'm sure they changed everything around, but you could ask on the forums and you'd get a quick answer!
@@Myticalcattnip there's many ways, I think just raising gamma in the settings is one, there's also flashlight mods, and all sorts of stuff, the forums are, and always were, the best place to ask for stuff
@@jan_harald oh ty, I'll try play minetest
I am not a child anymore. Minecraft hurt me through betrayal, and I haven't been able to recapture the magic with minetest yet.
Fun fact: worlds in this game actually go from 32k blocks down to 32k blocks up. Pretty insane!
64 km seems a bit excessive. 4 km is probably more than sufficient.
@@jursamajone can probably just move the generation height to a higher y coordinate tho
@@jursamaj 4km wouldn't be enough to make the Abyss from Made in Abyss.
Well, it’s just 32k (2¹⁵) in every direction, which makes the World smaller than Minecraft’s. V7 mapgen can generate floating islands up in the sky. Though there are mods that implements realms by partitionating the height, MineClon2 implements Nether and End that way. "Dwarf Fortress style caverns" implements cavern layers underground and "Other Worlds" generating asteroid layers in the sky, both have various biomes per layer. @@jursamaj
@@jursamaj you don't need to use all of it. worldgen can be configured to use all of it though, massively tall mountians etc
Ah, I’ve actually played minetest before. One of the cooler features was the fact that signs could be placed on the floor like welcome mats, if I remember correctly.
And yes, there are no mobs in vanilla minetest.

Alright tokito

It’s reverse click-bait
Seriously, I've commented about this on other videos, but I much prefer videos that have straight to the point titles or answer their own question in the thumbnail. For me at least, it creates much more intrigue as to how we arrived to said answer to the question being posed as opposed to simply asking a question that could go any way. Narrowing down the subject of a video creates more interest in my part. And it's funny.

I have massive respect for everyone involved in Minetest. Given that I'm already seeing some of my favorite mod creators start developing for Minetest, I feel like a decent chunk of the community will have somewhere to pivot if Microsoft ever _truly_ kills Minecraft.
it will happen sooner or later
Minetest is the basic engine. Where the real work is at -- the Games that it can play, like Mineclone 2. That's where the real hard work has occurred. I know, I made a few parts of Mineclone 2 over the past year (ish).
Given the new changes to EULA I'd gladly switch to Minetest just to not have to deal with all that nonsense Microsoft is trying to impose, like banning accounts.
HAHAHAHA mojang updated the eula with newer version to make less people aware of the change
Fun fact: mojang can false dmca people and they will do it if you step out of line
@@eliescobis9922 I mean, that's nothing new. What happened with Ray's Works is made even more disturbing by the twin facts that:
- it appears to have been a mistake
- it took Ray something like *three months* to get ahold of the person at Mojang who could _actually correct_ the mistake
And that's for a channel with 378,000 subscribers.
This is huge for the community, thanks for making this video. We'll be dealing with the aftermath of this video for years to come.
It amazes me how Mumbo just figured out a completely new redstone system while I can't even do simple redstone after 7 years

@@ColinPaddockyou’re funny
It's because he uses MacOS
FYI the base minetest game is more of a modding engine than an actual game. For a more Minecraft-clone experience, you can use either Mineclone 2 or Mineclone 5, but there are plenty of other mods with completely different gameplay from Minecraft
The game is open source so that means everyone that discovers it now through this video could theoretically contribute and make it better.
Mine test is designed to not just be a base game, but it's designed to be highly modable. Where it's strength lies is that it allows mods so much more flexibility than in Minecraft, because it's directly supported. That's pretty much the whole premise
the real issue with that approach is that people aren't going to mod it if people don't play it. Mods typically build off of a foundation to enhance a pre-existing experience, but minetest is intentionally trying to be a blank slate for mods.
@@robonator2945 WHich is great, because there is a large library of mods for people to play. It's open source, so people have made full games based off the engine. What you are saying isn't really an issue at all, because people *are* playing it.
@@interstellar_1Compared to Minecraft, nobody plays Minetest.
@@winxwest2964 Compared to breathing air, nobody plays minecraft. frame of reference is important, and minetest is decently popular in the frame of open source 3d voxel engines
@@Diabhorkthe first sentence is the funniest way you could’ve responded
Glad to see other people trying out minetest! For those who don't know, this "game" is more like an engine, and then you build your own game on top of it by installing different mods. There's a bunch that try to recreate normal minecraft survival, and there's loads of other kinds as well. It's really cool! And best of all, it's open source! Thanks Mumbo for introducing more people to this project :)
It's not only open source, it's *free software*, which means much more.

6:35 return of Mumbo "Killsalot" Jumbo
I say it was a very chubblesome kill.
Minetest was the introduction to minecraft for my son and I. Many hours were spent adding mods (incredibly easy to add) until our world was a broken mishmash of imported structures we destroyed in mechs, cars boats, planes etc... i highly recommend the 'balrog' and survival with access to all items. Great times

@@Henry-cl3gi No he dosen't.
@@archangel8428and how would you know? It's not unbelievable
i dont think "bad minecraft clone" does this game what it deserves. it's not supposed to be a clone of minecraft, it's supposed to be a platform for devs to make their own voxel games inspired by minecraft, and it does a pretty good job at that.
Hi Mumbo Jumbo. I'm one of the main community game developers. It's very cool to see you play minetest. I'm very sorry that you had to experience vanilla minetest though. I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless.
Yep, I wish he could have seen more mods, or even picked up a game like Asuna or Mesecraft.
FYI There are Minetest modpacks that attempt to achieve a closer parity to actual Minecraft, with textures, mobs, & overall functionality. A bit like playing on Bedrock after years on Java, but maybe one version behind. Otherwise a very similar experience. Although this was back in Minecraft1.16 days, so no idea where they are at now.
Instead mod, we called it a game mode called mineclone, and it has nether too
@@sherkhan_5050 To expand on that, there's Mineclone 2 which focuses on stability, and Mineclone 5 which is more about adding features. The former is meant to be more or less equivalent with Minecraft 1.14, but are now adding stuff up to 1.17 or higher I think. I know it's got axolotls now, for what that's worth.
EDIT: Turns out Mineclone5 is no longer maintained, so Mineclone 2 has passed it in features and continues to add more.
So random dudes are making bedrock, actually trying to fulfill the goal of optimized moddable version of the game. It's a little bit sad, that Microsoft couldn't do it.
@@Resursatoryeah it's kinda funny.
Minetest is still way better optimized despite being a tiny indie project and also being written in C++, and uses normal lua scripts with a singular unified api provided by the engine itself for modding purposes.
Kinda makes me wish Minetest had taken off instead of Minecraft Bedrock.
@@UnknownGamer40464 Probably with fewer bugs than bedrock too
I didn't expect you to go from double-piston door to 10-digit display in less than 3 minutes... Though I must say I'm not surprised from redstone genius Mumbo XD

MINETEST!!!!! Oh my gosh I never expected you to cover this game!!!
I'm really into Minetest as I really love open source software. It's really cool to see it get more exposure from a RUclipsr as big as you!
The project is still pretty small without a lot of developers, but it really has so much potential and I hope more people get into it!
Something to clarify: "Minetest" isn't actually a game. It's kind of confusing right now, but Minetest is actually a voxel-based engine. Minecraft-like games have been made for it, obviously- and the default game, "Minetest Game", is one of them, but an even better one is actually MineClone2, which you can find on the content database. It gets as close as possible to Minecraft. It's a lot... jankier, than Minecraft, to be fair, but it does have the Ender Dragon fight and everything iirc and is compeltely playable.
Also, I really like playing Minetest games because if there's ever a problem with it I don't like, like a block that's annoying difficult to break I can literally just go into the game files and just change a few numbers around in any text editor. Anyone can mod their games and add on new things very, very easily compared to Minecraft.
ALSO also also (I keep editing this with new things to say lol) shoutout to Wuzzy, a community member who made a really well-done platformer with the engine for last year's game jam. Not just Minecraft games can be made with Minetest; there's a lot one can do with it ^_^ !
It's good that at least one commenter is familiar with this game.
Yeah, I use Xed, and I can write fairly advanced mods with minimal effort in comparison to Minecraft.
I worked out raycasting in this when I was 12, to give some context on how easy it is to mod. I wanted to make a builder’s wand mod, but I lost the files at one point and gave up
Imagine Mumbo figuring out Pipeworks or Technics. If mese blew his mind...
Yeah minetest is super cool!

If you want more of that "I don't know what I'm doing" nostalgia, I HIGHLY recommend Better Than Adventure! It's a mod for beta 1.7.3 that essentially aims to imagine what minecraft could have been like if the adventure update never happened
BTA seems really cool, but it would be preferable if it was made for Minetest rather than being a mod of a beta version of Minecraft.

Interesting how this ancient game is just now getting some attention. Grew up on this as well as Minecraft. It definitely has it's place!
Always good to see a big content creator taking a look at Minetest. When just starting out visiting servers is a really good way to get an idea of the myriad of different mods that exist that you can then use to create your own custom worlds.
this is the game that i and my sibling would play before we could afford minecraft. thanks mumbo for shedding some light on it.
In Minetest there's a mod that adds dynamic lighting, so a torch in your hand lights up the blocks around you.
It is called held light I think. Great to pair with visible weild item and skinsDB.
You know, the feature from Optifine that Minecraft tried to buy that one time XD
the engine also has easy ways to implement colorful lights if the core doesn't already have
So just like Minecraft mods that do the same thing?

@@vintproxyour brain will be turned to mush if you play too long
I love to see you test more indie/opensource games
open source, and with apparently pretty great modding, this really doesn't seem bad at all. Sure, it's "just" a clone at the baseline, but I mean open source alternatives often are and are still great
Plus, it’s free
it's not really any more a clone, than checkers is a clone of chess, imho
it is a voxel engine, a block-based game...that's about all the similarities there are, lol
oh, and it includes common ores, and dirt, grass, stone, wood and other common natural blocks, I guess
it is a great engine, nice old project, and you can do more or less anything, some people play it in the style of minecraft, others play completely different gamemodes, there's even demo videos demonstrating e.g. "what if the world was a donut/torus" instead of a flat plane, by modding the minetest engine (deeper level than the normal mods can, but that's the beauty of open source), which is really really cool, etc etc

@@dee23gamingikr I thought I was hallucinating or that this video was like 10 years old but nope, 5 hours ago lmao
the mos is spelled "Mesecons"
It has the same eerie feeling that Minecraft had in its early days. I kind of love it.
I've been dying to see big Minecraft RUclipsr such as yourself covering Minetest. Glad you enjoyed playing it! I really want to see this game going mainstream, because IMO Minecraft is getting boring and very bloated (I have to install performance mods just to play it). Also, because if more people play it then more devs/modder will join the community and the overall quality of the game/engine increases. The fact that it's free will save so many parents money and decrease the act of pirating Minecraft.
Another thing I'd like to add is that Minetest engine is arguably much better than Minecraft. It is written in C++ so it's going to be much faster than Java, and I don't think Mojang will fix Java Minecraft performance problems at this point. It has a modding API built in, with mods manager/downloader right inside the game, so you don't need to mess with a custom launcher. I also feel that mods don't weigh down the game as much as they do in Minecraft. There's also built in shader now which is amazing.
Nice to see another minetest fan!
Yep, Minetest is better at most things besides having a really high quality default experience. Not that the default experience is bad, but compared to a game as big as Minecraft, it is hard to accept some of the flaws. Such as really janky mobs.

Hermitcraft Season 10: All the hermits playing minetest
good idea
this man is an absolute wizard, while i can't even figure out how to make a simple piston door by myself in minecraft, he can make a whole combination lock and a 7 segment display in a game he just got
tbh, it's not that hard to make a piston door, if you just mess around, and think about it
by now, I have a general idea, but double piston extenders still take like 10 min to figure out how exactly it should be, lol (2x2 doors are really not that hard, themselves)
Wow....
Mumbo! One really cool thing is that Minetest's modding capabilities are extremely integrated. Essentially, all mods are run server-side with no mod installation on the client, so there's no need to send modpacks around! All you need to do is join the server, and all the necessary mods will just work. I'd heavily suggest looking into them if there will be a "Hermittest" mini series since they can add anything from mobs, to achievements, to minecraft-like gameplay, to teleporters and trains!
Yep, and mods stay compatible for years unless a major version change removes or renames a really old function. This happens very rarely. I don't know if they even will do another major version number.
Mumbo, it's so good to see someone playing Minetest! I discovered it several years ago and played with it a little, but the community is so small that I haven't put much time into it. The strength of Minetest is how easy it is to mod. This is because they expect you to mod it. It is more of a voxel game engine than a game by itself. There is even a whole modpack out there to turn it into a pretty decent Minecraft clone! I hope to see some more of this sometimes :)
I personally prefer to work from Minetest's strengths, and I like Asuna because it accepts that Minetest isn't Minecraft. Whereas Mineclone2 thinks it is Minecraft, and ends up feeling a little off to me.
This game takes more "inspiration" than me when I write my essays
Minetest was actually released in 2010, only a year after first Minecraft release.
@@lmaorxenix7329 Did the developer forget that they made it until recently or this the product of over 13 years of work?
@@captainsprinkles6557 Well, Minetest is more like the game engine. There are a lot of mods that add mobs and blocks and a lot of other stuff. Some ModPacks are very similar to vanilla Minecraft, some are different. It's more like a system where you have to put all the plugins together instead of whole game where they balanced out all the functionality and bundled them together for you.
@@captainsprinkles6557 What you're looking at is a default, VERY stripped down game which is intended to have many mods applied to it for mobs, block variety and so on. So obviously it's gonna look bare-bones, it's basically the blank slate that comes with the engine.
That said, there are a wide variety of more developed games *for* Minetest that can be easily found with the built-in content browser and just as easily installed. Some of them change the mechanics rather wildly, like the popular NodeCore, while others stick a lot closer to the basic Minecraft-like concept but with a personal twist, like Voxelgarden or Pixture.
Hence the name "Test" I get it now. Thanks

No! Way! It makes me so happy to see you playing in the open source side of things (which I may or may not contribute to in the way of mods).
Also it's pronounced 'mēs' (like geese)... I think...
And yes ore depths in the default game are horrid. I would love to see you play one of the other, better balanced Minetest "games" (mod-packs) like SurviveTest or even one of the MineClones.
I believe Minetest is generally considered a game engine, upon which other Minecraft-like games are built.
There's a great "capture the flag" server that runs on Minetest I used to play all the time. That's pretty much all I know. Oh, and it had the shooty sticks that Mojang recently TOSed.
I used to play there, I’d dig underground and try to bring the flag through a secret tunnel
I can't believe this is still a thing after over a decade but I'm glad it still exists.
I'm so happy you covered this game! This game offers more freedom than Minecraft and I urge everyone who didn't like the new chat reporting system to consider this game/engine. The massive amounts of mods for Minetest is great.
Mumbo, do more! It's especially fun when you are on a server! I could probably show you around one, as this game's strong suit is the modding potential.
The "oh gosh" after Mumbo murdered a a poor innocent butterfly made me DIE of laughter, was hilarious
minetest is seen more like a platform for server admins to build upon than a complete game experience, basically modders heaven
This is super fun! I'd actually REALLY enjoy watching you experiment and discover more..seeing what you come up with. You might get cross-pollinating ideas/inspiration too. Anyway, I think this was fascinating!
With their AND gates and things like that, this Minetest plugin actually teaches people how electric circuits work. That's fantastic. 😃
Loving the compactness of it all compared to OR/AND/XOR gates made with... multiple torches and dust each? One can dig deeper and try Lua controllers for extra craziness.
That was fun. I'd genuinely enjoy seeing you play more of this game, even though it looks like a really close clone of MC.
6:33 is a perfect summary of the accidental termination of just about anything new when it falls into the hands of the human race 🤣
I can't believe Mumbo is quitting Minecraft for Minetest perminently!
I recognize this immediately. Love the game, great community. I've even talked to the devs and they're very nice
I intentionally crashed a major server on this once. Even talked to the owners about it later, good times
Minetest content, but doing redstone stuff (Mese stuff) is nice idea. I hope i can watch more stuff like this soon. :D
Minetest is actually barebones on purpose, there are mods you can install that extend it or you could just make your own minecraft clone or your own game.
there is a mod that tries to recreate minecraft 1-1 called mineclone.
there is a redstone mod
you can also install mobs as a mod.
A new Mumbo upload honestly just brings so much joy! Brightens my day and makes it better!
Hey hey! It's good to see more people discover free and open source Minecraft 😁
Yes, it is. I wonder what the impact of this video will be? Probably we will get some new mods, and a lot more downloads if I had to guess.
@@JoeEnderman Yeah definitely. I'm just so happy to see this underrated game get some more attention. I'm chuffed to bits after watching this 😂
You should try Scrap Mechanic stuff next! It's a $20 game and I think you'd enjoy the mechanics, as they are really simple and easy to learn. There are also many mods, so you can have more parts, aerodynamics, etc.
Mumbo playing Scrap Mechanic would be so cool
@@cl4655 I second this. Scrap Mechanic is amazing.
@@4megii It really is, but the physics suck.
Minetest is a game engine in which you can build your own games. I'm wanting to build a true 3D terraria-like game. Same side view 2D looks, but being able to move in and out of further depth dimensions.
Mineclone is a minecraft clone built in Minetest. It has mobs, items, etc, farming, the lot of it. I hope you'll give that a try as well, since it'd be closer to a minetest experience.
Also, don't try and find the bottom of the world. It's very very deep. 1000 depth is not even barely scratching the surface.
“Takes inspiration from Minecraft”
Dawg this is literally just if someone tried to make Minecraft from scratch
Minetest is pretty great, at least in theory.
Everything is a mod, and the mods are written in Lua instead of a made-up scripting language.
And the world height is sixteen bit. You can literally dig your way to the Nether instead of using a portal.
If you installed the Nether mod.
Hoping to see more minetest in the future, as it's probably the coolest voxel-based engine/game out there. I've played it occasionally with the MineClone2 mod.
No trash EULA
No commercial
No microtransaction
No money at all
No kiddo things
Just minetest
I actually really like Minetest, especially with how moddable it is compared to MC, If only it had the modding community it would be better than Minecraft IMHO
Excited to see Mumbo's soft launch of becoming a minetest youtuber!
You should definitely play more minetest in future. Especially looking at more of the mods and maybe seeing how close a redstone mod is to minecraft redstone.
An open source minecraft is such a cool concept
I have played minetest more than minecraft, so easy to use, lots of very cool mods and very easy to make friends in the multiplayer servers.
The darkness levels are actually super cool in this game, that was actually scary when you got to that huge dark area
I love minetest as a learning tool for modding, and I'm so happy its getting more attention, please play more I am very invested!!
This is pretty cool
Ive been wanting to make a minecraft clone that i could add story to and this will make it much easier if i decide to do that
I actually played minetest before purchasing minecraft back in like 2013 or maybe earlier than that.. it was around version 1.7.2 that I started minecraft. There are a bunch of mods that add so much to minetest.. including dropping blocks when mined so you have to pick them up like in minecraft.. some mobs.. tons of new ores and quasi-dimensions, etc. It is definitely worth playing if you grab the mods that enhance the game in a way you would like to play it. Mods are relatively easy to edit, as I seem to recall it uses LUA as a programming language instead of java. It has been many years, however, so my memory may be off.
In any case you will likely have times when you want to play it again, I am sure.
Yeah, they stull use Lua, and despute a few old mods being deprecated, the new ones are worth it, and most of the good old ones have been picked up by new devs or replaced.
the engine itself is programmed in C++ with the modding API in lua (a lot of games are like this, since it's really easy to include lua in C/C++ projects).
