sirsk8aton Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 **Bilderdunt**IntroductionBilderdunt is a project that I am currently developing for fun and learning purposes. This is the second attempt at this project(first attempt was a HUGE learning process) This game is much like a 2D minecraft(I know, how original right?) So far development is going quite smooth so I am making good progress. I am showing this to the public to help encourage me to keep going and for ideas/suggestions. Please keep it to constructive criticism.Gameplay/Engine Features1\. Completely randomly generated world2\. "Levels" in the world(Top map, underground maps - Not sure how many to limit this to yet)3\. Small, medium and large world selection4\. Crafting through the inventory screen5\. Tile breaking with resource drops6\. Auto-tiling for water, mountains, etc.7\. Complete tiled map system with 3 layers so far (ground, mask, fringe)8\. Building with resources(houses, forts, mountain dens, etc.)9\. Placing objects(furnaces, anvils, etc.)Future Plans/Ideas1\. Monster NPC's2\. Friendly NPC's(merchants that spawn in random homes)3\. Day/Night system4\. Online play5\. Randomly generated loot/treasureAnd anything else I can think of.OtherPlease remember I am just programming this game. All graphics are made by me, but most likely are going to change. I am no artist, I can just make the required graphics to progress with programming. If you would like to help me with this project and you are an acceptable artist, please message me and we'll talk.MediaView of some waterHome sweet home!Inventory/crafting thus far..So yes, that is all for now! Please hit me with all suggestions/comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 > got inspired by minecraft, crawleCrawle takes no inspiration from Minecraft. They share randomly generated worlds but that's about it. Either way, good luck on this man, it looks pretty promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SawQuart Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Yeah… it looks like you made a crappy rip off of my game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirsk8aton Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Uhm, no. I don't even know what game your making. Like others have said it was inspired by minecraft. I haven't been around enough to make "rip offs" of other members games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeoWorks Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 > Yeah… it looks like you made a crappy rip off of my game...Come on; cut him a break, hes been working hard on making this game. Just because it shares a few similar features it doesn't mean its a "rip off" of your game. That's like saying all World War fps games are rip offs from each-other because they share a similar scenario.  I think both his and your project are going great and you should both keep up the good work.  Thiers no need to call it "crappy" either, its a work in progress.

sirsk8aton Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Thanks Zeo, you're exactly right. Either way I'm sure our games won't turn up the same at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SawQuart Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 No… What I'm saying is that you're using the exact same rock AND GUI idea that I am, and I've been developing it for 6+ months now.It's not the fact that you're using this that's pissing me off, it's just that I don't want people telling me "OH LOOK, U COPIED NOTHS GAME!!" since I haven't posted my game to this board yet.

Your games will probably be substantially different, especially since your game is HnH inspired while Noth's is Minecraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 What language and library are you using to develop this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 > since I haven't posted my game to this board yet.Right.. So, how is he supposed to have copied your game if it's not even posted? On-topic: I quite like it, but it's difficult to say much as it's obviously in the early stages. Not sure about the trees or character sprite.

ZeoWorks Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 > Not sure about the trees or character sprite. Mmm yeah, prehaps a darker outline or highlights around the trees would be great; considering that the rock walls and coast lines are quite sharp.

sirsk8aton Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 A year later, and some progress has been made to show. I didn't really get too much done, but I haven't been working on this until recently. Also have been computer-less for a while. Anyways, here we go.New ground types, cacti, hp and stamina bar, ores in mountainsWooden walls, floors, stone walls, furnace, building block highlightedUpdated inventory screen, more items to be craftedSwimming, earth cracks(where you dig, place a ladder, and enter the underground)Early undergroundAlso have npcs, but they are still pretty buggy at the moment. Any suggestions/comments welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirsk8aton Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Who cares if it's a "minecraft clone"? I'm having fun making it and learning a lot from it too.Thanks dxxnight, going to slowly be working on this as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 No one cares, its just that I don't know how you can really separate your game from the many Minecraft clones. If your having fun, then have at it, if your learning from it, more power to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
