### Worlds are saved
The program works very similarly to Minecraft (at least when it comes to saving worlds).
You can create as many worlds as you like and they will be saved on your computer. To find the files go to the folder named ".hexacraft" in the %appdata% directory on Windows and in the home directory on Mac and Linux (just like for Minecraft).
## Licence
This project goes under the [MIT Licence](LICENSE). In short it says that anyone may use this project for anything they want as long as the licence is not removed or changed.
Basically this should be an open source project, but if anyone uses it for some purpose it would be nice if they mentioned the original project or the authors of this project. There has, after all, been a lot of work put into this.
