2DCraft: A MineCraft inspired 2D game.
-----------------------------------
Hey, I'm Jonathan and this is my project for ICS2O. I have yet to hand this in so I will not be releasing source code yet, eventually though. It is heavily inspired by minecraft, at the least. Saying so, I do give full credits for all arts, concepts, and audio to notch/Mojang's game Minecraft. I also used 2 very nice images from a user on deviant art: http://www.lynchmob10-09.deviantart.com Just to clarify, I do not take credit for ANY assets used in this project, I only claim to have written the code.

Please feel free to leave feedback. especially if its improvements / bugs.

Without further ado, here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/?fbbhad2rw2f27yf

There is a HelpFile.txt and it explains some things a bit. Check there first if you don't understand something, if it isn't in there, ask me here.

One of the few actual quality games.

Very impressive! It is not often we come across quality submissions in the Turing section. Kudos on the work.

A couple things I would like to see implemented is:
1) The ability to change the button to open inventory (I like the old 'i' instead of 'e')
2) A faster walking speed or double tap to run.

And I didn't see it, but is there a way to use a creative mode?

I realized at the point of finishing that I had not given the user the option to change the inventory button. That will definitely be added in a near-future update as I plan to continue development(Although not as fast).

As for creative mode, no it is not currently implemented, but I will likely implement that in a future update as the survival aspect is still in its very beginning stages.

@ Sniperdude is there even a way to make if double tapped button then this happens... in turing?

@jr5000pwp Wicked game, ima show this to all my friends, i love it.

Yes, but not built in. You would have to do it yourself.

What would make this possible in another language and not Turing?

Indeed! It is great work.

Actually an event driven language would make double presses more accurate.

You could check to see if the key is pressed twice within a given time frame via Time.Elapsed could you not? :o

EDIT: If not, you could always make it so that you hold down a second key to run, like Shift or R, while pressing a directional key (A, D).  Shift is already used in Minecraft for creeping, so if you're going to implement creeping and running, you should probably use Control or R (assuming you don't decide to code in the double tap thing...).

More accurate, but definitely not impossible.
