Minecraft X Saints Row: The Third Remastered

What it does

Both games run at once: Saints Row owns the world, vehicles and camera, while on foot Minecraft moves the player, renders from SR3's camera and is depth-tested against SR3's depth buffer. Raycasts turn SR3's floors and walls into invisible Minecraft collision, Minecraft swords, arrows and mobs damage SR3's people through stand-ins, and Minecraft TNT becomes Saints Row explosions. The README calls it early and only partly verified in the real game.

How it works
