  Ok... Then all we need is someone who bothers to make the background and the logo, cause I suck at graphics xD
Hexicube 13 years ago
  birjo for background size it can be whatever you like, however the colour needs to be solid white...
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Wow, just remembered a quite important thing, I've completely missed... The logo! We need a logo, no doubt. And that means... More work for Ahroo!
The only thing I have to say is: Make it pixely! Oh, and as big as you bother.

I'll go to bed

  Pfft, it'd be EPIC if they included Herobrine, even though the maker seems to be against it... xD
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Haha. I found the picture to be scarier.
Ahroo 13 years ago
  Dude, the whole 'WAKE UP' reference on the Minecraft Wiki page for the Herobrine Hoax scared the heck out of me for a second. :_
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Lol xD Damnit, all this creeper talk makes me want to play Minecraft...
Yearh... Play Minecraft once, and you will forever associate the word creeper with it...

  you're a creeper yourself ahroo, jk
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Here's what I've been doing the last couple of days:

Been out sightseeing
Used a whole day in a HUGE maze
Trying to not shout at a boy with mental handicap
Basically been away from my home all day long

But that didn't stop me from visiting this site daily (The wonders of the iPhone...)
Ahroo 13 years ago
  Pfft, a family of creepers. xP
chris3000 13 years ago
  well JP has a family to take care of, and i will too

well, eventually
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  He... He does?
That can't... That just can't happen!
OH NO! FLEEE!

Anyway, yes, I realise that. However, as a creator of a fairly popular website, I would say it should be possible to visit it at least once a day - unless of course, he's got no access to computers at the time...
Ahroo 13 years ago
  Birjo, believe it or not, JP has a life. xP
chris3000 13 years ago
  well let us know, ASAP
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Yearh :D Well, I won't start with the actual game just yet, and JP's been offline for 2 days now, so no answer on the background size... I'll say it when I need something :D
Ahroo 13 years ago
  Well, I could easily make custom button PNGs for you... I just need the size preferences (as always). :p
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Well, actually I were on a holiday, and we came back home at 10 P.M, finding my book. And guess what? I already know how to make buttons xD
OliAli 13 years ago
  Lol at 10 PM ? :D

Good new anyway :D xD
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Finally, I received my book!
Ahroo 13 years ago
  @DY, he's busy stealing clothes off of peoples' lines for me... I pay him because I can get good money selling them back to idiotic people. >:p
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  They assassinate presidents...
And sleep...
demonicyoshi 13 years ago
  What else do ninjas do when away? He was either on a mission, or training.
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Well, actually, we haven't been in contact yet (As I haven't been online when he were online), so we haven't even talked yet.
Ahroo 13 years ago
  NiNJa! Where you been? :D

So, you're discussing the coding with the 'pro', birjo? :p

EDIT: back to playing Kirby's Epic Yarn. :p
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  I most certainly did get a new one, but let's take this through PM
And I'll agree with the challenge part
THeNiNJa 13 years ago
  Yeah, and it seems you've gotten a new steam-account as well. This seems like a nice project, not to difficult, yet challenging :)
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  So, as I didn't have much to do, I decided to make pseudoprogramming for the whole block part. If you're not a programmer, please ignore this.

On right-click:
If playerPosition isn't equal to MousePosition:
If CurrentBlock is placeable:
Place block at mousePosition
Else if CurrentBlock isn't placeable:
ShowMessage
Else if playerPosition is equal to MousePosition:
ShowMessage


And for block destruction:

If LeftClick is hold:
If AimedBlock is destroyable:
DestroyTime = Number, depends on block type
If DestroyTime is over 0:
Reduce DestroyTime with 1 every second
If DestroyTime is 0:
Remove block & drop resource


Remember that this is only an idea of how it will work, and won't be how I code it.
The actual code will be much longer, and probably differ a lot, due to bug fixes.

I have no idea why I shared this with you... Guess I was bored
And needed a bump

*Edit* Damn BonusLevel, removing my spaces...
birjolaxew 13 years ago
  Yaaaay, THeNiNJa is back! We lost contact :/ Maybe because I uninstalled MSN xD
THeNiNJa 13 years ago
  Yaaaay, birjolaxew, welcome back! :D

What is Pixelized?

Pixelized is a future game, currently being developed by birjolaxew. It's in the development state, and - due to different obstacles - it won't be released to the public before 2011. It will probably go into testing state early-middle 2011.

What's the gameplay?
In Pixelized, the current idea is that you - the player, will be a small pixelated man trapped in a block world. Carrying specific blocks with you (Each block acting it's own way) you'll have to build your way through puzzles. A great example of the whole block concept can be found in the 3D game "Minecraft". Notice, that details can change during the development.

What have you done by now?
As of 17/11/10, I'm fiddling with the BL API, Flash and the basic game. I'll upload a "game" soon, but it won't be actually playable, and therefore I wont add any testers.

What blocks will be included?
A list of the blocks currently planned:
Dirt (Affected by gravity)
Stone (Not affected by gravity)
Mud (Not affected by gravity - Created by dirt blocks, directly touching water)
Ice (Not affected by gravity - Slippery, only available in winter mode)
Snow (Affected by gravity)
Sand (Affected by gravity - Found near bigger areas of water)
Gravel (Affected by gravity - Created by stone blocks, directly touching water)
Undestroyable (Used to block of parts of the level - Can't be placed/mined)

Where will it be released?
Right here, on BonusLevel.

Screenshots
Ahroo made us some game graphic (Great work I must say). I've put them together, to make an example of how a regular map will look while zoomed in.
Example of a map
Any way to keep track of the project?
Most certainly. I've made a blog, located here
