Inspired by the core gameplay of Minecraft, the name MineClone2 was not a particularly good one and it seems the developers were aware and so it's gone through a rebrand to be now called VoxeLibre.

      Well, it’s a community project. Tons of community members want Minecraft without the Microsoft, so those community members built that. It’s not that someone consciously decided to create a really blatant copy.

      Besides, the name change was specifically motivated by players expecting an exact copy and complaining or filing bug reports when the devs took some liberties in their design.
