BitCrafter

Development

  • The development for this only just started, there are a lot of things to learn, like:
    • Lua (programming language)
    • Rendering for pico-8
    • Pixel Art
    • Sound design
    • Map design
    • ...
  • It will be a side project to my other projects, if I want to only code and relax a little bit :)

My test console

I test the game on the miyoo mini. Therefore, this is the button layout.

Features

  • This is a collection of ideas for features in the game:
    • Crafting
    • Entering different floors -> Stairs to go up and down
    • Live Coordinates
    • Map that can be toggled (Maybe can be crafted, or as menu)
    • Day / Night time?
    • Lightning? Do you need to light up rooms?
    • Mining
