Voxelands is a free game. This means that the source code is available to be studied, modified, and distributed. Most projects look for help with testing, documentation, graphics, etc., as well.

Voxelands is a voxel sandbox survival game. The first aim in this game is to survive in a blocky environment, defend against angry creatures and build shelter. Almost every block can be dug and placed, allowing you to create complex structures.

Almost the entire landscape can be manipulated with digging and building. You can build the world of your dreams, one block at a time.
