PRANG!

Description

PRANG! 🔗

An unofficial port of PRANG! to Minetest.

There are instructions on how to play inside the game. In short, you have to collect food/potions and avoid enemies. You can get a powerup (umbrella) to be able to destroy enemies, however obstacles are deadly while you have the powerup.

Requires 5.4.0+ servers, however it should work with clients down to 5.0.0 (although it will send more HUD updates to clients older than 5.2.0).

On MT 5.6.1 and older, you may need to zoom out to be able to see the entire game on smaller displays.

Public server 🔗

If you don't want to download PRANG!, Edgy1 hosts a public server on prang.edgy1.net port 30003. Note that movement processing and rendering is done server-side so there may be lag and/or glitching if you are far away from the server (which is currently in Germany) or have a poor internet connection.

Do you recommend this game?

  • Very good

    Really nice performance, plays surprisingly well for a 2D game using the Minetest Engine. It's fun and compelling, with little to no difference when compared to the original, so it does its job at being a port extremelly well. Great arcade game, I recommend giving it a try.

  • An arcade you wouldn't expect on Minetest

    The author has shown a great knowledge of the (debatable) UI of Minetest, being able to create a game that it completely runs in 2D. Sure, you must be a masochist to script this on Minetest rather than, I don't know, Godot, but it surely is a showcase of what it can actually be done.

    The vibe goes to the old arcades, displaying an artistic coherence. Gameplay is fine, but again l I think that the best aspect of this is to open PRANG! in front of people who think that MT is all about 3D and then see their confused -yet intrigued - face
