custom engine

Minecraft has been adapted for various Nintendo platforms, including the Wii U, 3DS, and Switch. Developer Meesedev is working on a version of Minecraft for the GameCube, which has shown performance capabilities that exceed the official Switch version, particularly in render distance. This GameCube version features a render distance of 13 chunks and is powered by a custom engine capable of handling 25 million blocks simultaneously, allowing for dynamic environments with shifting cloud shadows. Meesedev plans to use this engine to create an original experience with unique art styles and gameplay mechanics inspired by Minecraft.
