Steincraft

LIKE MOST SIMILAR GAMES STEINCRAFT IS NOT A FINISHED PRODUCT BUT A WORK IN PROGRESS. I'M CONSTANTLY TRYING TO FIX BUGS, ADDING FEATURES AND TWEAKING THE CONTROLS. SO EXPECT MANY UPDATES AS THE GAME EVOLVES.

For feature requests and bug reports visit the issue tracker here: https://bitbucket.org/0x17/steinkraft/issues

Steincraft is a game that places the player into a world made of blocks. Blocks can be removed by digging them and new blocks can be placed nearby other blocks. New worlds can be generated and are automatically saved. Existing worlds can be loaded. In its current state it is similar to the creative mode of Minecraft. A desktop version (for Windows) can be downloaded here (free): http://bit.ly/s17yVg (updated to v05)

If you want to be informed about ongoing development you can follow me (0x17) on Twitter: http://bit.ly/pQm1DU

You can now switch between different input methods in the settings menu!

Instructions:
Default Input & Opposed Input:
- Use the two virtual analog joysticks to move around and rotate your view.
- Press the circle on the top right to switch between dig- and put-mode.
Alternative Input:
- Use the joystick on the bottom left to move around.
- Drag across the screen to rotate.
- Tap&release very quick to add a new block.
- Tap&wait and then release to remove a block.

For any input method:
- Tap the circle below it to jump.
- Press the button centered on top to go back to the menu (progess gets saved).
- Tap the texture on the top left to show the texture selection overlay.

- To use TNT plant some (select Texture with 'TNT' written on it) and then detonate it by putting "fire" on it. Fire is the texture left of it in the texture selection overlay.

Custom textures: Download the default texture map from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1608301/texmap.png
Then modify (do not rename it!) it to make it look the way you like. After that copy it over the the "Steinkraft"-Folder on the SD-Card of your Android phone. Unmount your phone and then your custom texture map should be used.

You transfer worlds between computer and Android phone by mounting your Android phone as USB-Storage device and copying "WorldX.dump" files between the Steinkraft-Folder of your computer and "/sdcard/Steinkraft" on your Android phone.
