Show HN: Termcraft – 2D terminal survival with multiplayer support

Earlier this year, I started developing Termcraft, a terminal-based 2D survival game written in Rust.

Since its first release more than half a year ago, I've added multiplayer support, so you can now host a game and play with friends (or colleagues during a meeting?); Up to 8 players. I've also substantially improved the visuals, lighting, physics, and overall gameplay. A friend and I ended up spending the entire weekend playing through the game from start to finish.

The progression takes you from gathering wood and building a shelter to crafting equipment, exploring caves, finding diamonds, crossing the Nether, and fighting the Ender Dragon. There are villages, farming, collaborative building, PvP, and player chat along the way.

It's open source under the AGPL-3.0 license, with downloadable builds for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

It's not perfect, but I'd love to hear your feedback and experiences with the game. Contributions are also more than welcome!
