I think it's already been taken care of, but yeah, heightmaps (plasma) using the diamond square algorithm look nice, I have Lua code to do it on my github: https://github.com/mlepage/heightmap

Well since the hard work is pretty much done and out of the way ( collision detection, gravity, block placement, controls) you could start introducing more elements to the game. Do you have plans of adding enemies? Or a way in which to build compound elements from mined rock like in Minecraft?

I also got an error when I went above the screen :(
wat ya mean she's in another castle!?

I'd like some quests and objectives too. :)
So the game has something that makes the player want to continue playing. :)

Yes, I will get to fixing that. It also happens when you go to deep. And yes, I am planning to add enemies.

Quest and Objectives might happen..... And what do you mean by:

I just noticed that something changed in my dropbox. The guy is now animated. Good work Davidobot. What other elements are suggesting-treasure or just more blocks?

This game has seemed to mature a little bit, so I thought I'd go through it and give you guys some notes.
  1. On your loading screen, the spinning ring seems off center.
  2. On your loading screen, the "Press any button to continue" could be better styled.
  3. You can't jump if you're next to a wall
  4. As this is a very Terreria type clone, I would allow the player to jump higher.
  5. Every time I go deep enough, this error occurs:

  6. The player is slightly thinner than a block. Was that on purpose?
  7. Good job on ladders!
  8. The clouds are nice, but perhaps it'd be better if they were a bit more random?

A. Yes, I might remove the spinning.
B. I'll change the font.
C. I'll look into that. It never happened to me...
D. Maybey.....
E. I am working on that.
F. Yes that is on purpose.
G. Thank you.
H. I'll randomize the size and speed.

Right, I updated the game from v 0.2 to v 0.2.5.

Most Notable Bug Fix: It doesn't give you an error when you go deep enough.
