So I decided to make a port of one of my favorite arcade games that i like to call "Minecraft in the 80s"
The screen format is this:
*Blank
*Blank
*Land
*Land...
*Lives : Rounds
My current Progress is (
Bold = Newest Non-Recommended version):
- Limiter (So you don't walk off the edge)
- Status Bar
- Land
- Digging/Mining
- Movement
- Controls
- Characters
- Background Terrain (Flowers (Y) +Sun (@) )
- Multiplayer (Other players don't render until they move)
- Menu
- A easter egg….

Update! I made it so you can see what other people dug
(And a little Easter egg in multiplayer > :D/>/>)
Also, in version 1.5, there is no more screen flashing and lag :)/>/>
Update for 1.6
I added a test thing to kill other players in multi, just press U! (only temp)

you can optimize it in many ways, as an example, replace the lines :
with:
noLagg = string.rep("X",x)

for i = 1,x do
noLagg = noLagg.. "X"
end
with:
noLagg = string.rep("X",x)
Thanks, i'm not that familiar with the string api.

OK, I will always update with the same pastebin so just use that for a auto updater.

Okay, there are no errors, but when I run it, it prints the number 6, and ends the program, what's the problem here?
