voxel.js is a collection of projects which allows you to create minecraft-like games in the browser. voxel.js requires a browser which has webgl support, as the games created with voxel.js required it to run.

the idea behind voxel.js was to create a framework which is not monolithic but rather composed of several modules.  modules can be installed using node.js package manager npm.

the core components of voxel.js are the voxel-engine which is required for any voxel.js games, voxel – the logic that generates the voxel game world and voxel-mesh which takes data from the previously mentioned voxel module and turns it into a three.js mesh that can be displayed as a game.

voxel.js also has several add-ons to complement the above core modules. they range from add-ons which allow you to create simple npc creatures, to add-ons which can generate a forest or debrit. you can check out voxel.js’s website for more information.

requirements: node.js
demo: http:/ / voxeljs. com
