created the hotbar today, and block game is really starting to look like a game now!
and best of all, the entire bar is reskinnable by changing the gui.png and gui.json files :3
just gotta put blocks in the hotbar when you break em, and then place them in the world from the hotbar, and add torches somehow and we'll have ourselves a playable prototype
if i can pull that off in the next 10 days i'll have taken block game from nothing to playable in just 2 months. that'd be a nice feather in my cap

it doesn't just look like a game now, it *is* a game! :D
select hotbar slots with scrollwheel or with the keys shown in the upper left of the slot (indicated by background color). press 'R' to ready/sheathe whatever's selected (indicated by the golden cursor). while nothing is readied or the slot is empty left click breaks blocks. if a block is readied left click places that block

One thing I like about mr stick here is that I use smoothed normals on it despite it being boxy and low poly so it looks more round like an actual stick because dogmatic adherence to "everything is a sharp faceted cube" does not actually produce a pleasing aesthetic (in my opinion)

@eniko Tbh I do think that specifically Minecraft aesthetic is quite unique and works rather well, but it spawned a voxel-worshipping cult with games where everything looks like they took a normal game and voxelized everything with ~10cm voxels but only on the model level, so you can still have arbitrary orientations and even animated models, and I just can't stand it? It looks worse than a non-voxel alternative in pretty much every way...

@lisyarus I personally think Teardown looks interesting despite being about what you said. Leaning into more physical lighting might be what saved it perhaps (for me).

@breakin I agree, Teardown is a notable exception, though imo it works mostly because the voxels are part of gameplay. In the games I was talking about above you could swap all models with non-voxel ones and they would play exactly the same.

slight diversion to test out an idea i had for rendering contextual onscreen hints
looks alright but i think i might need to have a separate smaller font for this one. or even maybe a non-pixel font. but it'll do for now
edit: the hint location is flexible (because it'd presumably follow your cursor in cursor mode) and it's just in the center here cause it was convenient for testing

after a suggestion (which you can read here https://kolektiva.social/@tiotasram/115417432543641175) i've decided to make torches craftable via a fantasy plant (flamereeds, a sort of cattail with an oily/sappy case around flammable cottony inside) combined with sticks
also put the hint indicator at the top of the screen to show block names when you target them

@disorderlyf @alice oh yeah the structure of the Fediverse compounds systemic blindness significantly. Even for trivial things we have very different views of what happens here. Even more so than on the commercial silos.

@alice that's an interesting line from the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon to our perception of these things.

@themooserooster @blogdiva of course it was. Everybody has been pointing out that what DOGE was doing was destroying the USA soft power. And here's the thing: this is exactly where these asshats show their (criminal) foolishness: they think they can get more and pay less by using violence instead. Their inflated sense of superiority and their contempt for the poor, at every level (from the personal to the geological), will be their undoing.

Okay, when I started reading this, I wanted to reply with the ADHD-joke about Ford Focus...But then your toot took a dark turn and I don't feel it's appropriate anymore. And yes, I can relate, you start spotting patterns when they start to affect you.
