VoxelCaverns Wiki

Welcome to the VoxelCaverns Wiki
VoxelCaverns (2) was a previous version of The VoxelCaverns Project, lead by adventurerok. This is the official wiki (made by the main developer) for VoxelCaverns (2). The current version of The VoxelCaverns Project, version 3, is being developed in Java in 3D. There will be an official wiki for that too.

My plan for the future:


 * Indev2D updates will be released freely
 * Alpha will be released for between £1 and £2
 * Beta will be released for £5
 * Full version will cost £9.99
