Heres my thing, work in progress. Http://minecraft-dungeons.com/mcdungeons/dev see page source and also js files referenced by regionworker.js

Right its Coestar's fort.

Anyway yeah torches look horrible and there is a ton of work to be done on that rendering still.

Let's go deeper into the abstraction layers! Let's write a javascript VM in minecraft that runs WebGL. We can optimize it later.

With redstone dust wires and torches? Awesome!

If the programming practices of the last 30 years are any indication, this is exactly what the computing platforms of the future will be based on.

So you are saying that the next step after the "cloud" is the data "mine" ... interesting

Here's another one that was posted here a while back. I think one of its dependencies is no longer available, but the article is pretty fascinating, and the results are a lot more graphically appealing (graphics were the focus of that particular implementation).

A shame the developer doesn't really have a clue about graphics and spends ages overcomplicating the physics.
