Minecraft in Space - Starforge

[RED BARON]

Fell over this by random search, it sounds awesome And it sounds like an option for those who dislike cubes as the prime graphic. I am honestly quite impressed.

The video which shows the stuff they made:

Support and early (and much cheaper game): http://www.indiegogo.com/starforge

So yea, I hope they succeed in creating it.

I've tried it. It is still unplayable. Very poor, but it has potential.

Hmm yea okay I hadn't tried it myself (So good to hear from one who have) - I just liked the concept of it so agreed there is potential behind it if they can pull it off. From the video I got the impression that mechanics was working, but not that it was collected to a game yet.

The difficulty in this game is that the player is not just a position anymore. He has at least two. This means he can be falling upside and possibly lay down and things like that. This also makes the game very buggy. For example, if you go close to a wall or jump, he will be thrusted back and you may fall down from the tower you're building. Also, when walking up a mountain wall and you hit the point where you cannot walk more up because of the steepness, you can start shooting down, which gives you more power upwards. This is easy to fix, but there are so many buggy things still.
I am also quite excited about the game though.

Haha, yea I can see how that rather quickly can get annoying, but at least it looks like they can reach their goal. I will likely donate when it gets a bit nearer as I am fairly busy at the moment. Then I can give it a try in person Also thanks for the description of the problems, such that I now have a much better inclination as to what I would support. Just what I hoped for.

Then calm yourself with the good feeling that its barely out in alpha yet - so long way to go. Should make you able to at least finish them first.

Yeah i played it and laughed my ass off but the nonetheless i really liked the movement in the demo although it looked a bit funky at the moment. It has great potentional though.
