Recreate the proudest build in Block Studio and export an STL to 3D print.

4 Β· Make it endless

The Quest Generator spins up fresh missions for any grade and subject β€” forever.

ℹ️ About this MVP

BlockQuest Academy is the Minecraft build of the "kids learning game" concept: AI-designed, task-based learning quests inside Minecraft, where a child's unique creation becomes a 3D-printed keepsake that "can't be replicated."

What's in this MVP

β€’ A real Minecraft add-on (quest system, NPC guide, build-detection) β€” /exports/BlockQuest.mcaddon
β€’ This companion app: quest board, progress tracking, an endless quest generator, and the Block Studio keepsake-maker that exports printable STL files
β€’ Full docs and the concept brief in /docs

The 3D-print loop

Build in Minecraft β†’ recreate it in Block Studio β†’ export .stl β†’ print on any FDM printer. The exporter culls hidden faces so the model is a clean, watertight solid.

Next, with the kids

The Roblox version stays on the roadmap to build with the children later β€” this Minecraft build is the working proof of the concept.
