I hope not... I do have support from a group at school who might help me plan some.

README:
Press p to pause and draw using mouseover (buggy), after which c will set it in mouse click draw mode, and o will resume. Press + or - to increase or decrease matrix size. Some functions are on the menu. Enjoy!
Questions and comments are welcome!

Yup CX to start, back-compatibility as soon as I have time.

perspective,
the GOL uses a fixed matrix, but I'll post it anyways soon.

game of life, post it!
Also is the 3d cube renderer perspective or orthographic?

Wow! Lots of intrest! I'm excoted that you guys care. This is one of my first projects for the CX, but I've been programming with my 84+ for over 4 years now, starting with BASIC, but I dabbled in assembly (Hex codes only tho, I really don't use computers for programming), and when Axe came out I used that. Currently, I've written a small 3d cube renderer in Lua, a classic bouncing ball (DVD screensaver), and a GOL simulator. If anyone wants the source code, I can post them on Tuesday or Thursday. This project grew out of the GOL sim, as I finally got the hang of Lua tables. I currently don't have any gravity or physics implemented (Builderboy, please forgive me ), and have a fixed world size. However, I do have world slices implemented (ie Terraria mode). Basically, the world is a (sparse) 3-d table. The -1 element (w

• [y][-1]) of each square (w
• [y]) is the color shown on the map, as its the top block. My worldgens pretty bad though, as I have no idea how to make the kind of terrain minecraft has. Any help's appreciated. Do you want a minimap view in Terraria mode? Thanks for the support, I'll at least post a block list and some plans in my first post soon, if not beuatiful screenies. Also, I don't know how to animate screenies, but static one's are planned to be released thursday at the earliest, if I get sprites working. Anyone know a good tutorial for making them on-calc?

Hi guys,

I recently began work on a minicraft like game in Lua, but I realized it was missing something (I'll give you a hint -- another dimension). I decided to make a minicraft with TERRARIA view! What do y'all think?

EDIT: here are some planning notes.
Blocks
stage1
0/nil → air (maybe vaccum?), rgb(254,254,255)
1 → dirt, rgb(150,100,50)
stage2
2 → stone, rgb(200,200,200)
3 → cobble, rgb(150,150,150)
4 → wood, rgb(150,100,50)
5 → leaf/air, rgb(100,200,100)
stage3
6 → coal (ore)
7 → coal (drop)
8 → iron (ore)
9 → iron (ingot)
10 → crafting table
11 → furnace

Ideas
store last key (instabreak to start)
sparse matrix of fixed size (to start)
UPDATE 2:
Check daily for Updates!!!
