@bjcsupertortoise Minecraft is rendered using polygons, yes. But the blocks/chunks are stored as voxels, it would be impractical if they weren't. When you're interacting with a block, you see a polygon block but you're actually interacting with a voxel. ;)
@Freak2121GTAF I thought that simply a cube in a three-dimensional grid of cubes was not classed as a voxel. Isn't a voxel specifically a solid cube of one colour which is the simplest body in a 3D graphics system, which all objects are made from? Or, like you say, does it not just have to be a 'pixel with volume' — can it actually just be any sort of information which is associated with a cubic space (in a grid of course) in the graphics? (As you can probably tell, I am not a programmer)
@bjcsupertortoise I am not a programmer either, I only know one who is familiar with voxels. I don't know how to explain it, but a voxel is a point in a 3 dimensional grid. It can be rendered as anything you are capable of supporting/creating. The one color cube that you're thinking of is a voxel being rendered as a voxel. Minecraft's world (not entities) are voxels rendered as polygon model. I hope you understand now. Also, most game objects are made of polygons not voxels.
anybody here can gift me this game? i was gonna get it for $7 but i cant since im not in the US... PM me if you can, i can give you a $7 amazon giftcard in return :3
Im an avid minecraft player so the graphics doesn't bother me. Its the actual game i dont like. Too many spawns after MC. First terraria and now this? Too much of a good thing will kill it for all.
Finished it! Perfect difficulty, and the atmosphere in certain levels.. woah. I really hope there'll be more 'campaign' in the final build, and that you implement more musical stuff. When you use those bladerunner-reminiscent synths along with the long-legged alien that shoots rainbows it's just flawless. The music from the game is great, and you could really spice up gameplay by having more monsters add to it. Something to consider. :) amazing game! gonna get on the level creator
This is a cute game. The editor looks complicated, but I did get it in the humble bundle. I'm going to tinker with the editor more. I think I will get the hang of it.
This looks amazing! Don't rush for a release date, but rather put a good amount of time and effort into making this. Trust me, the fans will greatly appreciate it :D
I think voxel graphics like this are going to bring about an age in graphic design very similar to that used in gaming's early days. Until graphical capabilities supersede those of today, I'm gonna appreciate the return of these pixel-like graphics.
this game will be on steam? i got thinking, since minecraft its "on the spotlights", other games with "oldskoll" style might get some boost too, and a cheap price on steam makes wonders in the propaganda department, just a random sugestion.
I find the comparisons to minecraft more than a little off... I immediately thought of the arcade classics Robotron 2084 and Space Dungeon. It feels a lot like that but with a deformable environment rendered in voxels.
Awesome awesome awesome I neeeeeeeeeeeed this game
