Description
Mineception (Minecraft in Minecraft) is a program I started right when computercraft got colors. In October 21st I made a post and a video about it telling everyone (but I didn't release the code), after a bunch of playing around and testing (and bug fixing :C) I managed to make it playable enough to release the first version to the public :D/>

Well, another bug, when changing blocks, the GUI disapears and comes again
Edit: Another bug, when you go up a block, like going in a stair, you can go through blocks

I know about the first bug (forgot to add it to the post) and the second bug only happens when loading new chunks (already mentioned that)

The second bug happened in loaded chunks, not being Chuck Norris in new chunks

I was using CC emulator…
Well, if someone else report it, it could be a bug

Heh, didn't see this thread till now. I guess we'll have to compete with each other to come up with the best and most playable game or something. :P/>
I just tried yours, but the character appears to be stuck underground with no way of jumping out (plus collision detection doesn't seem to be working)… What's up with it? :P/>
Also, why isn't there a range check on breaking blocks?
Edit: Also, the endering is really slow… 0.o

If you're character is underground, then just break everything right next to you and walk through.
I'll add range checks when I have pickaxes
( Pickaxes work like this:
Hand: 1-2 blocks infront
Wood: 1-3
Stone: 1-5
Diamond: 1-12
Diamond Drill: 3-15 (and mouse_drag)
)

Idk how to fix the rendering :C
and I fixed the collision
EDIT:
I found out that the rendering was lagging because of the grass updates/ticks so I had to remove that :C

Oh, that's a cool idea… I've been trying to figure out how to implement block breaking properly (with limits that change with diff tools), but I'm still not sure how I'm gonna do it…

Awesome!
Thanks :D/>
I added Crafting and moving items in your inventory (press E and click a item, then click a place to move it to), but I didn't add any recipes yet :C
I also fixed the land generator (Chunks didn't carry the correct information about their position in the world, so sometimes new chunks generated over the last ones)
TLDR:
- Chunk errors gone
- Crafting
- Splashes

Will there be any Mod API for the game and do you allow modifying and re-distributing the code?

Here's a little program that lets you mod any program as long as you sort of install it;
To run it on this just put the line:
function run(mods)
in line 582
and the line:
end
function startup() end
after all of the code, then download this program:
http://pastebin.com/3e0Y0ShVfiddle with the settings so it works then run that program.
I haven't had time to test it, but it should work, to edit any other game to make it compatible with the mod basically just wrap the loop with a run(mods) function and wrap a part of the code in which important variables are set in startup() function
to make mods just make one function named "run" with one parameter "main" which is the program, so for this you could call
main.registerBlock( 333, "Rainbow", colors.pink, 33)

Is 333 the ID? IDs have to be less then 256 :3 (Or the game won't load it/it won't fully be compatible)

found a bug:
If your going left and you're holding the left and you have moved at least 2 blocks since you started holding left, you will be able to walk through anything.
But no matter what you do you can not go through blocks on the right side.
(obviously air is counted out)

Nothing is impossible. Some things are just really difficult.

I like the mind = blown bit. Also, it'd be cool if you could save your worlds into a folder (a hidden folder called .minecraft) so you can load them up again…

There already is a .minecraft folder with a 'mods' and 'saves' folder inside (it ws the first thing I added :3)
I'll add saves when I add multiplayer (not too far)

Fancy mode is coming soon :D/> (Toggled in settings)
Good part:
Everything is more HD and not just 1 pixel
The GUI is identical to the current minecraft
Bad parts:
Everything is zoomed in and a little slower :C

Also, does this mean a yes to falling sand? I wanted to beat you to block updates. My implementation (which was working at one point) is far from completed now, because I've been convinced by multiple people to use a more events-based approach to them.

I use the same character moving method in every game I create ;D

The controls aren't finished (sadly) you can only move items by left in inventory and no recipes are here yet

My idea was to store everything in a table with information about the next event for the blocks

Well, block updates are supposed to be the next feature (crafting should come afterwards because I can't have trees without block updates), and I haven't really been able to figure out how to make block updates work in a good events-based manner.

Since I use a API for everything, i'll add a function that runs os.startTimer and stores the variable data in a table and the block data inside that table, kinda like this:
local blockUpdate = {
[ os.startTimer( 0 ) ] = {
["Func"] = blockFall, --Runs with this parameter: blockUpdate[ stuff ]["Func"]( posX, posY )
["next"] = 0, --seconds until next update
},
}

"When generating land, your character turns into chuck norris and swims through it :C"
I've LOL'd at that part. But, shouldn't you try to make a new version?
