After watching the actual game play in the video below, I have to admit this little indie game built with voxels looks kinda cool.

This could be a big moneymaker if released on Android / Iphone.
Looks exactly like 3d dot game heroes for ps3:

No Linux as an Indie game? Pass.

Looks kind of cool.
However I cringe when I see the word voxel it was something that was imprinted in my mind when I first heard the term used during the development of Master of Orion 3... and anyone who's played that (and was a huge fan of MoO2) knows what a complete cluster fuck that was.

looks cool indeed
in case anyone missed it:
http://voxelstein3d.sourceforge.net/
(try editing the config to make your knife do more/wider destruction... pretty fun)

Linux is already an incredibly minor platform for anyone to care to target as a big dev... a little dev with lower overall resources has even less incentive to target it.

That's the first thing that I thought when I saw that trailer
Expect to see more of them in the near future.
And *that* game looks a lot like the original Legend of Zelda. I see what you did there too...

Oh, you. Voxels have a wide range of use, see terrain in Crysis.
Independent developers don't have many resources as it is compared to the big guys. They need to concentrate their efforts where they will see the most return, which pretty much eliminates the linux community. These guys don't develop games to give away for charity, it takes time and money on their part, why spend that time and money on the smallest gaming market?

That's exactly what I was thinking...
I guess the difference is that in the voxel game, anything's destructible?
