Hey guys, I'm thinking on a small project for the summer.
My biggest problem in game development is graphics. I know how to do some basic modelling so I thought, why can't I create a player model similar to minecraft (very cubic) and base my game on this type of graphics.
Can I do it? Will I get sued by Mojang/Microsoft?
Thank you
Can you create a game based on Minecraft looks (graphics)?

You can do it without being sued, if you check around you will see there is tons of games with a cubic / pixel look.

I know you did CubicVerse and all, the problem here is not getting sued, it's the players reception... I'm afraid of those "WHAT A MINECRAFT RIPOFF" comments, even if the game is a totally different genre..
You think it will get lots of bad rep?

Yes you will, but you will anyhow, whatever you create, always receive bad comments. So why worry? Do whatever you want.
