Minecraft has more potential reach. It also has a huge amount of plugins already made including virtual economy ones. It made it quite easy to bridge the gap between a virtual economy and LNBits. If you're a programmer: https://github.com/SovereignCraft/Sovereign-Craft-Economy

Yeah it does but so does 7 days to die. There almost = to each other except minecraft's got a phone app. Minicraft may just been a side project for a contest but I see it's gaining traction because of a similar sandbox game called mystera legacy. Yeah those 2 don't have plugins but it would be cool if people worked on minicraft for it to. Idk something about that 2d minecraft seems more appealing to me.
Maybe because it makes me feel like i'm in a legend of zelda type of sandbox. If you never tried it I would just mess around one day. Theres a few sites like crazy games minicrafts even backed up on archive.org & there's even some hacked edited versions of it.
