in plain english

Mykonos Island Voxels is a small browser based building toy where you place blocks on a grid to construct a tiny Mediterranean style village, inspired by the whitewashed buildings, blue domed roofs, and narrow stone paths of the Greek island of Mykonos. There is no goal, no resource collection, and no scoring. It is meant purely as a relaxed, creative space for arranging scenery until it looks right. The building grid is 14 by 14 squares, and players place items from a side panel by clicking a cell, with each placement appearing through a small animation. A one click option can fill the whole island with grass to give a quick starting canvas. The project ships with more than seventy five hand painted assets covering terrain, plants, small buildings such as chapels and windmills, water, and decorative props like lanterns, wells, and fences. It is built to work well on phones and tablets as well as desktop computers, supporting tap to place, long press to erase, drag based painting, and pinch to zoom gestures, with a layout that adjusts down to small phone screens and accounts for notches on modern iPhones. Behind the scenes, source images are rendered once at a higher resolution and cached, then drawn to the screen each frame from that cache to keep things running smoothly, a detail the README says is important to preserve if the code is modified. The project uses no external JavaScript libraries or build tools, relying instead on native browser modules, and it can be played directly at a hosted demo link without installing anything. Mykonos Island Voxels is released under the MIT License, a permissive license that allows free use, including commercial use, and the included artwork is released under the same terms, though separately credited audio files may carry different attribution requirements.
