DScraft beta test footage. Development continues on the two homebrew, Minecraft-inspired DS projects — here you can see plenty of additions Smealum’s added since the first rudimentary release, like basic controls, torches, texture pack support, new block types, and more.
Smealum hasn’t put out a public release showing his progress with DScraft so far, but you can see more of what he’s added in this recent fanmade trailer.
The other Minecraft-style DS project, Lumikha (formerly LuaCraft), which more resembles Terraria with its sidescrolling 2D presentation, is also coming along nicely, though I think it really needs more attention so French developer Fantasix will continue to work on it.
I can’t wait until both projects start adding enemies, as the hostile world of Minecraft’s Beta always appealed to me more than the safer Classic version.

2D, Minecraft-style homebrew game for DS. Like Terraria, this early-in-development project interprets Mojang’s 3D sandbox game into a 16-bit-esque sidescrolling thing.
French coder Fantasix says LuaCraft — unrelated to the identically titled Minecraft custom server — has the basic functions of its progenitor: you can move, place, and break blocks, as well as create items out of blocks. LuaCraft also supports mods, so you can add content and features from other people (or make your own) to the game.
You can download the most recent version (1.2.3) here, but keep in mind that Fantasix is putting out a lot of updates, which is awesome. If you can read French or don’t mind using Google Translate, you can follow LuaCraft’s development, read up on the controls/crafting, or learn about how to make mods in this discussion thread.
