  • Minetest rebranded as Luanti (blog post).
  • It would be more accurate to refer to Luanti itself as an "engine" rather than a "game"--their home page also calls it an "engine".
  • It can now be installed from a PPA, simplifying the installation process greatly.
  • Content is now available from ContentDB, which is accessible in-game, further simplifying the installation process.
  • Multiplayer still works the same, so there was no need to update that section.
