I am interested in making a game with the ability to break blocks and to place blocks, similar mechanics to minecraft. Any ideas where to start will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
You put what the first place to start is right in the title, Voxels. That’s where you will need to start.
Placing and destroying a few blocks is fine, but placing and destroying hundreds of thousands is something that you will need voxels for. I have seen a few different plugin solutions to voxels around so do a bit of a search in the learn tab and you will see what other people have been working with so far.
If youre completely new to this whole “indie game dev” gig (like i am xD), I highly advice you to think deep and hard on what game you want to make. Making a game is a daunting task and you may end up regretting “going off the deep end” to start. I know i almost did lol.
A game doesnt have to be “big” to be fun. For reference, look at something like clustertruck. Those guys are my inspiration atm for keeping at this entire shebang lol
