Cubzh is a voxel game platform. (voxel == volumetric pixel == cube, in that context)
It all started as a Lua scripting environment focused on voxel manipulation & real-time communication.
Our goal is to build the most exciting and accessible place for artists, developers & players.
It's free, it runs on many different platforms, we're open sourcing it, decentralizing it (eventually), it's in Alpha... we need your help to build it! ๐
Cubzh runs on mobile (iOS, Android), desktop (Windows, macOS) & web browsers (Chrome, Firefox).
It's an all-in-one application embedding its game execution sandbox, an item editor, a world editor, a code editor and a marketplace.
We're open-sourcing Cubzh, one module after an other. Elements open-sourced (โ ) + ones about to be:

Coming next: cross-platform API.
Even though we're officially maintaining native Cubzh clients (iOS, Android, Windows, macOS), we would like creators to be able to distribute their worlds via custom web domains. We're almost there, please contact us if you're interested in that feature.
We're deeply convinced decentralized marketplaces are such a natural fit for user generated content environments like Cubzh. A reputation based decentralized governance would also be a good thing.
We've been studying blockchain technologies for a while. But as of today, there's still no execution plan.
We don't want to sacrifice user experience. In any way, we don't want decentralization to make it less accessible or less free-to-play.
We'll keep thinking about it and see where it leads us, sharing concerns and critical decisions here and on Discord.
