But wait… What is Project XAE?
Project XAE is a metagame—a whole videogame inside of Minecraft vanilla.
With the intention to make our own videogame in the future, without limitations.
Current intentions
Our intention now is to make the most ambitious creation possible in the modding field, but the main intention is to make an amazing videogame with our current budget. Making a videogame tends to be expensive, and since our team worked 13 years in Minecraft, we can make the most amazing meta-game, and in the future, turn Project XAE into a videogame.
Why Minecraft?
Minecraft works like a game engine, when you really push the game to its limits, you can really do whatever you want. Here are some examples we’ve been developing:
Custom vanilla 3D mechanic made by Erkko.
Video footage from a past similar project named Anprolux
What’s Project XAE about?
The game itself narrates the odyssey of a Nibumbiyan agent from the Lightway Order through the planet X_____, a golden planet that called the attention of all galactic power forces. Started by a mission, the agent goes through a spiritual journey towards ascension, and most essentially, freedom through a deeper understanding of reality communicated by interdimensional hybrid-humanoids, the Gath’Cii.
On the journey, the agent goes through different dimensions inside Planet X itself, leaving behind the bellicose purposes of the war that the Lightway Order from planet Xeindom is about to jump into between other major houses: The Hagmas, The Rulers of the Galaxy: Thyrenians and the Yulux Order.
The agent explores darkness and the highest light and goes to search something beyond their own comprehension, beyond his own humanity, body, flesh, and soul, towards the spirit and true self.
How we’re developing it
Our purpose is to make it all vanilla, we will get in touch with the Minecraft Java mapmaking community through systems that vanilla Minecraft disposes of, which means that our intention in the programming will be to use the tools that Minecraft by itself provides.
We made that choice since it’s what we’re used to in mapmaking.
Cinematic approach
All you play is mostly gameplay, but we worked through the project as a playable movie, also inspired by the freedom of a metroidvania. That makes the project spectacular and free at the same time.
You can make it possible
The only thing that stops us is budget, the Minecraft project has its own costs. For you to play the most amazing content in a community-creation history, follow our progress, post your stuff and network in a game-developing community, you can subscribe here
FAQ

There’s no current release date, but if we reach our budget with your help, we plan to release it in one year. We calculated halfway through 2024.
We have no idea about our own videogame, what we’re doing with the Minecraft project is opening a door for our future aspirations and ideas for the game itself. Wait for the map, it’ll be great.
-
Latest, but that shouldn’t matter for you because we’ll give you an entire launcher customized just for playing this Minecraft Map, with everything customized and prepared just to go ahead and play.
We also have the intention to make everything fully vanilla-friendly, so if you want to execute the map in the default versions, you will be easily capable.

Well, subscribe and you’ll see our progress. We’re doing amazing things with great news every single day.

No. We love Minecraft mapmaking and our current aspiration is to complete the project. What we’re saying is that we’d love to make our own videogame with the complete version of the script.
The script that you guys will see, the portion that will be made of the script in Minecraft, is exactly the first half of the whole script. The second one is radically different, and now, at least for the director Alejandro Tello sounds almost impossible to do.

For almost everything, to make the most amazing project, you need the most amazing team, and to get the most amazing team, you need to pay them the right amount. The project in Minecraft itself has its own cost. All the money will be reinvested merely into the project, artists, programmers, directors & leaders, level designers, mechanic designers, modellers, equipment, and in more members of our team.
