Wouldn't it be epic if...

Wouldn't it be epic if there was a cross between Minecraft and Star Wars Battlefront II?  I say we should make one!  But in Java or Lua?

Look it up.  Find a few gameplay videos.  Read an online manual.

It's a Star Wars FPS.
It's really fun.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

I swear a few years ago everyone was going on about a number 3, I loved #2 but some of the missions were next to impossible.

You can't make MC mods in Lua.  Or at least not without a Lua-to-Java converter of some sort.  I'm talking about making a game with Minecraft-style building, and Star Wars Battlefront II-style fighting.  Java seems a promising choice because it's what Minecraft is already written in (though I have seen nearly identical things written in C++, so Java might not be the key), but Lua is a powerful and fast language in which Star Wars Battlefront II is written.  They both have further advantages and disadvantages that run deeper, but hey, that's not important to explain fully.
