this looks rather like Terraria, but as I don't know even a TEENSYYY BIT of programming, I'm terrifically impressed.
it seems cool, but make the graphics B&W and make more color as you progress!

I agree, it looks like some of the weapons shown on the main page were ripped from Terraria, but still impressive sirs. Can't wait to try out the game. ^_^

Re: My Game "Zarknorth"

Sorry for never updating this, We haven't publicly said much about the game lately. Our forums kinda died, So I hope some of you guys would be willing to sign up (Yea I know it dosent have much... But it would make us happy)

I am adding multiplayer support (Easier than I thought), along with recently redoing all the graphics (Site will be updated soon) we have some unique "non terraria" ideas, all going to be shown off in our next video.

We are really looking for some new gameplay elements if anyone has any more ideas.

Re: My Game "Zarknorth"

I hate it that games of this genre get compared to minecraft and terraria. However, neither have really hit MMO status. I suppose they kind of have with servers but it doesn't (for me) make it fully a MMO. Add some features to beat them.

News

You can now paint objects, its not totally done yet though. I will add more colors and better ways of changing the hue. But for now may I present you with this:
Click to enlarge

All objects are paintable so far, although they dont always look very good. This means you can have stained glass, colored bricks, or whatever you want! Post your thoughts/suggestions,forum kinda died..

Also, Dat sunset!

Re: My Game "Zarknorth"

This seems to be frighteningly close to Starbound, but you're doing a good job nevertheless.

Re: My Game "Zarknorth"

My apologies for the gravedig. I figured I should update the topic as most of the information was extremely outdated. Anyways, as summer is here I will be working MUCH MUCH more on the game. I've gotten some possible deals with a music producer and it looks like their are only a few things missing that will be hard, the rest will come together as time goes on. Stay tuned for updates, check out the site and IRC channel (#Zarknorth on irc.rizon.net). If you could register that would be awesome!

Here is a preview of smooth lighting:

And Homescreen:

Re: My Game "Zarknorth"

June 14th Progress Update!

Hope everyone is having a lovely friday night, it's been a very productive day over here at Zarknorth HQ Yesturday was filled with working out alot of backend stuff, but today I completed enough to give you a good rundown of whats been done and some screenshots of what it looks like. Anyways, with the new item and sorting systems in place, I decided to tackle chests, a long needed item. Soon I will be adding furnaces and crafting areas, but its more of an idea thing, I have a very unique idea for this but need to fix some flaws in the design.

     I also added a small feature, the item previewer thing-ma-bob. Just shows where exactly the item will be placed and will turn green if you can place it and red if you can't.

     With all the new graphics Smitty W. has been making, I finnally decided to add the ores. This took a while making all the sprite sheets (each ore has 5 variations so it dosen't look so plain) which means the game engine now supports variations on tiles. So here you go, Some more pics!

There are 5 ores currently, Copper, Silver, Gold, Ruby, and Diamond. And there are 3 types, the first which you can mine, the actual ore. The second is the "unrefined" ore that gets dropped. This ore must be taken and smelted/cut into a bar or gemstone.

I hear their is something on quartz coming soon

Smitty W. has also been working on some new and much better backgrounds!

Thats an in the middle of development screenshot, I'll update it with the final one shortly.

Thats it for today, I hope I can keep posting some nice updates like this in the future! Maybe tomorrow I will work on world generation, or something.

As always, tell your friends, suggest some ideas, and see you later!
