I found the suggestion to make a Luanti one pretty cool, since it's open source™️, but it's probably not as feature-full as something like Hytale.
They finally renamed minetest?
On a technical level luanti is pretty good, it is however completely not fun to play. Its not just that's it's not feature rich it feels off, the controls feel floaty and unresponsive while the gameplay is just overall not enjoyable.
Even with Mineclone? They really have tried to stick as close to Minecraft as possible for that one. Although maybe your problem is more with the feel of the engine
Even with mineclone, the problem is that it tries (and fails) to desperately replicate minecraft. It doesnt improve upon the concept, it doesnt do anything new, it doesnt have its own identity, the only good thing about the game is the code but you dont play code. The entire gameplay is for the most part just working on the codebase.
Meanwhile Hytale is an actural game that you actually play and then enjoy, not a minecraft clone but foss an (admittedly only partially source available)
