Yeah, but truth is a lot of people do consider it a game.
Only you, it seems. First I have seen this assertion.
I could go into depth on why it's an engine, but you seem to have already made your mind up and are going to stick with it regardless.
Edit: Actually, I'll leave it up to the Minetest project.... "Minetest is an open source voxel game engine with easy modding and game creation" - https://github.com/minetest/minetest
I also think that it and Roblox should be considered game engines, not games, but they are classified as games not platforms by the likes of Apple and random people on Reddit.
Fair point, it didn't feel like you were in agreement.
Apple has to classify their apps. Do they even have a game engine classification? I'm assuming they cannot class it as a productivity suite...
As for random people on Reddit. We've gone and hopefully can move on from the hive mind of regurgitating opinions and use our brains a little more. We're not hunting karma and upvotes here, we're here for better discussion.
