Vetus Terraria!

-----------------------------------

It is encouraged to read the following before jumping into the deep end: During my gr.10 Comp Sci course, I made a game similar to Terraria, so I named it "Vetus Terraria" (Vetus is old in latin) This Knock-off Version includes:
-A Player
-A Randomly Generated Map
-Structures (Caves, Trees, Water, Ores)
-Tools (Pickaxes and Shovels so far..)
-Crafting Recipes (No Crafting Table however)
-Block Shading (Like water, it is based on Cell Automata)
-Zooming in/out (still a little wonky)

For now, there are no mobs, no weapons and no complicated animation (Including holding your tools)
However, You can drown, Place Torches, and find cool caves.

Controls:
.	-In Game-
Mouse Left: Hold to Break Block
Mouse Right: Place Block
WSAD or Arrow Keys or Space: Movements Controls
I  : Zoom Out  (If your computer can handle it)
k : Zoom In    (Reduces Lag)
.	-Inventory-
Mouse Left: Pick Up/Drop Stacks
Mouse Right: Drop 1 item in an Empty Slot
Mouse Center: Accept Crafted Items

Overall, this was a great project, it could've been coded more efficiently if I had the time. All in all, Enjoy! (Main .t File is an application) Code is open for constructive criticism.

Unfortunately, it crashes at the start of the game just before the player collides with the ground, but the first three seconds of the game look fantastic!

It probably crashed because of the sound, replace the "Vetus Terraria" Application with this one: But the sound will be off.

You need to include all your resources used, not just the compiled program.

Nicely rendered environment. I like the way the shadows auto shade them selves under the blocks. I feel like the timings should all be shorter though. The whole thing felt a bit on the slow and sluggish side. I would have built myself a house, if i didn't have to wait 8 seconds to break a single block. Overall, still quite impressed with it. Looks great!
