The Importance of Performance in Minecraft

Voxel games are where you the map is defined by these coordinates with some annotation in them. But what it means is that if you want to make a game where people can walk around, it's a lot of data. And so I got really frustrated with just how long the iteration cycle time was on that game. So I realized I was spending a lifetime on like the build like the tooling for the game and not the actual game. That led to fun.
