This game is a survival rpg in which your resources are spread out across 4 islands, and you have to control 4 seperate characters on each island, then teleport resources between islands using teleporters. The teleporters use a thing called arcacium to run. Also, in order to keep warm, you'll need to run a furnace by putting coal in it near each character. To use a workbench or a furnace for crafting, just stand facing it and open the crafting menu.
I didn't get as many features added as I would have liked to (food and hunger were planned but never added), so the game is a little bit incomplete. Also, currently, there is no win condition, only a lose condition. The unofficial goal is to make all 4 characters an iron hammer.
Controls: WASD - move Space - hit tree, stone, etc. Space - pick up item e - put coal in furnace (while facing furnace) t - open/close teleporter menu (while facing teleporter) 1-4 - set teleporter destination (while in teleporter menu) Space - move item to/from teleporter (while in teleporter menu) Enter - activate teleporter (while in teleporter menu) c - open/close crafting menu Space - craft (while in crafting menu) i - open/close inventory Space - place/use item (while in inventory) 1-4 or q - switch between islands
Pretty ambitious idea! Minecraft with teleporters. Though I had to lean a lot on my knowledge of Minecraft to see how far I'd get. Controls and interface were pretty unwieldly, I have to admit.
Interesting idea. I imagine with a little more time, this could be a cool game.
If I was to give one piece of advice, it would be to speed this game up. The slow interaction and slow walk speed had a big impact on how the game felt. I imagine speeding it up would make it pretty fun.
The controls are bit choppy and I got a little bit confused with the Error Message saying you don't have enough Arcadium although the price is 0. Later I understood the principle of the teleporters ;) Overall I really liked this 2D Minecraft game. The different Isles with the different ressources are a really good idea. Well done!
