That's a "polygon engine". by Gutsby 07/09/2020, 3:13pm PDT
Seems like they've found a way of very quickly replacing their models with an approximate volume of cubes, then they bounce them around with simple particle physics. A "voxel engine" is an engine that is engineered around displaying voxels efficiently by their relations in a data structure. If something is bouncing around you can assume it's not a voxel.
