in plain english

Blockwild is a browser based clone of Minecraft, described by its author as a 1 to 1 recreation, credited as built by KIMI K3. It runs entirely in a web browser using JavaScript and the Three.js graphics library for rendering 3D blocks and worlds. To run it yourself, you either double click a Windows batch file called start.bat, or start a small local Python web server with a single command, then open the game in your browser at a local address. When you open it, you land on a title screen where you can pick a seed to generate a new world and start playing, or continue a world you saved before. The game automatically saves your progress every 30 seconds and also whenever you switch away from the browser tab, and there is a manual save and quit option in the pause menu as well. Because the game is fully static, meaning it has no server side component beyond serving files, you can deploy it by copying a handful of folders and an HTML file to any static web hosting service, including simply dragging the folder onto a drag and drop deployment service, and then share the resulting link with others. The project separates its core game logic, including world generation and gameplay rules, from the Three.js rendering code and from the on screen menu interface, keeping those three concerns in different folders. This separation allows a set of automated Node.js tests to check the world generation and block meshing logic without needing a browser or graphics to run. The project is released under the MIT license, and the README notes that Three.js itself is also MIT licensed by its own authors. All in game textures and sounds are generated procedurally while the game runs, meaning there are no copied or licensed third party game assets bundled with the project. Beyond this run, deploy, and test information, the README does not describe further gameplay features or mechanics in detail.
