User:Wuzzy

It’s me, Wuzzy!

I speak German and English.

I am active in this Wiki and in the Minetest forums (same user name). I'm the author of countless mods and even a few games. I make sure the German translation of Minetest stays up-to-date. I rarely did a few small contributions to Minetest itself, but enough to appear as “active contributor” in the Minetest credits in version 0.4.16. :-)

In Minetest, I usually only play in Minetest, but I sometimes appear in a few servers as well.

You can contact me via XMPP: Wuzzy2@jabber.ccc.de

Abandoned games and mods

This section is only here for historic interest. These are games and mods which either never got completed, I no langer care much about about finishing them or they simply have become obsolete:

Mods:

• Shifted Blocks [shifted_blocks] (lost interest after 1st release)
• Pseudo-Nodes [pseudonodes] (lost interest)
• Surprise Blocks [tsm_surprise] (lost interest)
• The Origin [origin] (somewhat deprecated by Spawn Builder)
• Disable sneak glitch [no_sneak_glitch] (obsolete)
• Allow zooming [allow_zoom] (low player interest, will become obsolete in 0.5.0)
• Player Tools [playertools] (I believe this is my very first mod. Now outdated, clashes with core commands, I am no longer happy with the command structure and there are tons of better command mods out there)

Games:

• Weird (too ambitious, never really took off, mainly because of lack of inspiration, good ideas and motivation to work out a good and detailed game design [it's harder than you think!])
