I think adding this much friction to what should be elementary tasks would probably be a bad thing. Anyone who’s tried to build something complicated in Minecraft will know how frustrating it is to not be able to see the other side of things. Technically my complete lack of 3-D programming knowledge eliminated that before we even began but at least now I have a design justification as well. This pretty much immediately eliminates any sort of three-dimensional game. The first is that I want the player to have an at-a-glance overview of their set up (buildings, passageways, machines, pipes etc) to make it easy to see and modify. Points one and three were decided before I even began thinking about implementation details since they are tied to the kind of game I want to make (more on that if I ever actually get to it) but point two arose for a couple of other reasons.
There will be NPCs that you control indirectly (think of the dwarfs in Dwarf Fortress).It will feature base construction as a core mechanic.It’s still in the very early stages of development and I may never finish it and be one of those people who talks about their ambitious project that they never complete.īut! In what little I’ve done so far I’ve had to find the solution to a problem that I don’t think anyone else has ever bothered to tackle, and there’s probably someone somewhere who will find that interesting.Īlright, without getting into too much detail, three facts about my game are completely set in stone: I’m not ready to talk about what it’s going to be like or what my aims for it are.
