## What it is
A tiny bootable Minecraft clone written partly in x86 assembly with its own minimal kernel code, created as a university assignment. It runs from an ISO or USB stick on real hardware or in QEMU/VirtualBox with no hard drive and under 4 MB of RAM.

## Use cases
- bootable minecraft clone in assembly
- learn x86 assembly with a real project
- run a game directly on bare metal from a usb stick
- study bootloader and kernel basics
- play minecraft in qemu without an os

## When to choose
- you want a fun educational example of assembly and kernel programming
- you need a tiny self-contained bootable demo
- you're teaching or learning low-level computer systems concepts

## When to avoid
- you want a playable, polished Minecraft experience
- you need stable cross-hardware compatibility (it can crash with floating point exceptions)
- you want efficient hand-optimized assembly for production use

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: experimental
- function: game-engine, graphics, embedded
- domain: operating-systems, education
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: x86-assembly, bootable, minecraft-clone, kernel, demo, bare-metal, game-development, linux
