      It’s finnish, so like it’s written. Foreign concept for english speakers, I know.

        It is quite literally a foreign concept to anyone who only speaks English. That’s how foreign languages work.

        How is the word pronounced though?

          I’m a finn, so the only advice I can give is that it’s pronounced like luanti in finnish.

          Not very useful, I know, sorry. Nau ai häv tu kou präktis mai rälli inglish.

    I hope this is a joke cause Luanti sucks, stick with the already well known Minetest.

      Minetest has been more a platform for making games on than a single game for at least a decade, since they added lua scripting. Seems like you’re outraged over nothing with no real understanding of what Luanti has been and aims to be.

      Cool so, you linked to some git repositories that haven’t been updated in 4-5 years, and looking at their current website there seems to be some sort of crypto involved now.

      Edit: I meant to say as well, that they appear to have closed their source, despite the “open” in the name.
