MC land - a little minecraft clone
« on: April 11, 2012, 02:00:53 am »
For no apparent reason, I'm working on a little Minecraft clone in GML (Game Maker). I only have digging, simple world generation, and player movement so far.

VERSION 0.2 ADDS BUILDING!!! CHECK IT OUT NOW!!!

To build, right click anywhere you want to place a block. Select the block you want to build with by using the number keys at the top of your keyboard.


There is now a website for MC Land! http://acrennie.wix.com/mcland

Here are some stats and stuff:
Stuff I am going to add next
  • Digging speed (little cracks appearing and all that)
  • Make jumping less buggier
  • Getting cobblestone instead of stone
Stuff already implemented
  • Building
  • Digging
  • Trees
  • Simple Map Generation
  • Simple Player Movements
  • Saving
  • Inventory
  • Falling Sand
  • Water
  • Lakes
Version History & Download
Source code of newest version: download

PRESS F1 TO VIEW README

Screenshots of version 0.1.1:

Here is the startup screen:


This is a randomly generated level with lots of trees:


This is the pause menu:


And here's me tunneling underground; and all the ores are visible:

I made a huge crater, and you can see the inventory system at the bottom of the screen:
Screenshots of version 0.1.3:

Here is the newly generated lake:
Screenshots of version 0.2:
Spoiler For Spoiler:
What's this? A giant "HI"? But those don't generate randomly! It was built!


Spyro's happy sea-side cabin.

I'm gonna try it in a few minutes. By the way how is map making in GM? I always found it to be kinda hard, because it seemed like you had to manually implement scrolling my making tiles move around rather than the camera moving around, like on calcs. In RPG Maker I could move the camera around without having to manually move the map around. But of course the last time I tried GM was in 2007.

EDIT: Tried it. I think you need to make jumping much slower O.O

Actually when editing maps you can use "views" which are basically cameras. That's what I use in MC Land.

Ah ok. I didn't see that option in GM when I last tried it. Basically I just had a 100x20 tilemap and just manually moved around the 2000 tiles. Surpringsly it was fast, but I assume that must be quite slow if you have larger maps or an old computer.

What version of Game Maker are you using Spyro?
And also what version did you use DJ_O?
EDIT: looks pretty nice so far. The mineral sprites remind me of a flash game called motherload. :D

you should try to use GM8.0. It hasn't got a watermark in the free version.

You should also try to make you keep walking in a direction when you hold down an arrow key.

Google chrome thinks the executable is malicious. Is it malicious?

I don,t remember, sadly.

It should be fine. Maybe because when closing the game, it shows a GameMaker ad and Chrome thinks it's adware?

Sorry about the Game Maker ad thing. I bought Game Maker 8.0, and YoYo Games said you could use the same license code on 8.1, and I did, and it didn't work...so I tried 8.0 again, which didn't work either. :/

Strange, could you maybe ask them? Because it isn't supposed to happen and if they don't help you then you got scammed.

Just want to let everyone know I am still working on this. I'm making more sprites for tools and items, and I'm going to get sand falling soon.
