I would like to propose the idea of a hytale server for hexbear, I will be creating this server although if anyone else wishes to do so they may. I will be creating a new comm for this, my question is what do people here think about the idea. Is there any interest in a Hytale server?

(again it will be owned and managed by me unless anyone else has another idea in which case I will hear them out, im asking here because ideally I would like this to be at least semi-official and tied to hexbear)

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)
