Development Log:

Dev 4

  • Added the action display bar at the top of screen

Dev 5

  • Polished the action display bar a lil

Dev 6

  • Added uses into the game.
    • These are stored in a strut called uses, which has them for each 'mode'
    • These deplete whilst performing the mode's action
    • When they hit zero they move to the next action in the array

Dev 7

  • The Generation 'Update'
  • Added Gold and Diamond Placeholder Textures
  • Added a choose_weighted() function

Dev 8

  • Designed the curves for ore generation
  • Increased world size
  • Added a stone background that moves
  • Added a border around the map
  • Added a shop/store object and sprite

Dev 9

  • Requires an air block beside a block to be able to mine it
  • Added storage.
    • You must have storage to mine a block
    • There is total storage and individual values for each item
    • You gain one of an item by mining the block
    • Your inventory can be sold at stores
  • I also slightly adjusted the loop and the uses of the move

Dev 10

  • Added Upgrade stores to upgrade backpack space
  • Put the move time back where it was

Dev 11

  • Play test showed:
    • It's real hard to get back up to the top again
    • The TNT can sometimes feel too underpowered - I don’t actually know if it will go out the hole
    • I haven't seen any gold yet :(
    • The Upgrade is a bit pitiful
    • NEED LADDERS or some built block!
  • Added Ladder texture

  • Added a second move action just before building
