Simple Minecraft and Other Games

Wyboth

Hello Opticraft! I have made a very simple, 2D version of Minecraft. It only has 2 blocks: dirt and water. Left click to place dirt. Middle click to remove dirt. Right click to place water. Water spreads when it is placed. Press W to remove all water. Press R to reset everything. The block highlighter is a little bit glitchy, but it is not too annoying and fixing this might cause other parts of the game to not work. This isn't really meant to be fun, it's just a test of my programming skills. Tell me what you think!

Update: here's another one!
Hello, Opticraft! I have made another game - this time it's a tower defense game. Enemies will follow a path towards your base. Don't let them get there, or you'll lose a life! Stop them with towers. Left-click anywhere on the grass to place one. When an enemy comes in range, it will shoot it down! Each enemy requires 2 shots to be defeated. But be careful! Towers cost lots of money. Earn more money by defeating enemies and beating levels. If you want to sell a tower, right-click it. Those are the basics of a tower defense game!
Unlike my last game, this one can be fun. It took quite a bit of time to make, however. Known glitches: If 2 bullets from a tower hit an enemy at exactly the same time, the enemy will become invincible. I don't know how to fix this, so just be careful with your tower placement. Please give me some feedback in the form of a comment. Thanks!

I have made a demo of my game Inertia. The full version is 99 cents, but the demo is free. You can download it here. If you liked the demo, I'd appreciate it if you bought the full version! The demo has 6 levels, and the full version has 40, plus a secret game mode and more obstacles. I will use the money I make selling the full version to pay for college.

The full version of Inertia is finished. You can buy it here for $0.99. Download the webpage and open it, then type your email address into the box (it's weird, I know). I will email it to you when I receive your payment. Please make sure that you enter your email address correctly.

I am making an LP series of Inertia. You may view the 1st episode here, the second episode here, and the third episode here.

So this is basically like terreria?
I'll try it out some time, I never knew you could program.
Edit: Nevermind this is nothing like terreria, but it's pretty cool.

You should make it so water stops at 7 blocks like it does in real minecraft. ;D oh and your second game is really awesome as well. You know it's good when people get addicted to it XD

That's an interesting idea, I'll think about adding it. Sadly, I probably won't be doing any more programming for a while, since school is about to start.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it, and I'm also glad that I got what I was aiming for (addiction). :D

Are you on a Mac? If so, try using Wine.

Yeah. And I would, but I'm feeling very lazy today.
