Fractal Block World: A Game That's Bigger Than The Universe Itself

[@jonaw.2153]

Man, from the way this game looks you can just tell it's made by an actual fucking genius. No joke. The man behind this must be on a whole different level.

[@enricobianchi4499]

He was the one who had the idea to combine Infinifrag with Motherload, which down the line led to the creation of Minecraft.

[@th43_zz55]

Hes a professor at the university of michigan. He teaches statistics but hes also taught mathematics

[@PanopTanopLanopMan]

I think he started this project in *2012* and released it in *2021*

This game is the most low-effort and the most high-effort game simultaneously, and I love it!

[@SendyTheEndless]

It's crazy how shrinking and enlarging are like new spatial directions to explore. Worlds within worlds!

[@cancerousPlatanorr]

If i became stressed enough in games that have a time travel dungeon with a past and future counterpart

[@Super-zn5fb]

I "beat" it in about 20 hours, "beat" as in getting the key and freeing K.. but after going through all that, it's immediately clear how much of the game was left to explore, there were countless paths that I had only peeked into on my way through the game, and there are 10s of hours more content to explore. Not to mention, this game *totally* scratches my cookie-clicker-esq itch of wanting to see my numbers go up... as in, grinding for damage upgrades. Very fun and oddly addicting, would recommend.

This game is Minecraft’s deranged cousin.

[@enricobianchi4499]

​@@milkman4407 The developer, Dan Hathaway, worked with Zach Barth (Zachtronics) to develop the gane that would later become Infiniminer, which Minecraft is basically a clone of

[@TherealLaserdog]

Thats not something to be proud of

[@th43_zz55]

The red guys kill you very fast if you shrink while they are in the vicinity. The "s" on the screen tells you if they will hurt you when you shrink. You have to kill all of them in the area before shrinking.

[@gullybonesart4670]

The original version of this game was apparently developed a year or two before Minecraft started development and it even directly inspired Notch to start development on a block game of his own! :)

[@professionalidiot4409]

trying to comprehend what was going on in this video was like trying to understand the spatial navigation systems of the fucking magic school bus

[@funni_noises]

The shrinking part makes me think of what shrinking yourself Irl would be like. Eventually you would be so small that dust particles would be bigger then yourself and the experience would be pretty similar to seeing all those cubes 2:40

[@HYDROCARBON_XD]

It gives you a perfect explanation of how small we really are in this universe and this universe as small as we are compared to our universe

[@datstift610]

We can't even proof if the big bang actually happened and we also have absolutely no way of proving that the universe hasn't been there forever, wich is actually way more believable than all those theoretical "big bang" shenanigans.
