ClassiCube (https://github.com/ClassiCube/ClassiCube) exists, which is an open-source Minecraft Classic reimplementation with an N64 port among dozens of others. HN discussed it two years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37518874).

ClassiCube has a WIP GBA port, but according to commits it only hits 2 FPS as of now and is not listed in its README.

On a related tangent, there's also Fromage, a separate Minecraft Classic clone written for the PS1 (https://chenthread.asie.pl/fromage/).



Related to this is the Atari Falcon port of Minecraft using a sparse voxel octree, might work for the GBA seeing as the Quake ports are similar performance-wise:

Man, that DSP made the Falcon an insane piece of hardware for its time. Shame that it never found any real success.
