minetest_game VS SNKRX

minetest.net

I downloaded the minecraft java edition game handler and modified the .js file to fit my game (minetest) before zipping it again and renaming the .zip file to .nc. Now when I want to extract the newly created handler to connect it to the game binary, it gets stuck at 100% extracting.

Get your building and mining hats on and join us on PAW Minetest. Download at https://minetest.net and connect to PAW Crypto Mine Server.

If this is Minetest Game, the request was implemented and nobody in the issue was bullying about it: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/issues/1063

All you need to do is download Minetest on your phone or computer at https://minetest.net/ , install, connect to the PAW Crypto Mine Server, and start playing.

GIMP saves large amounts of metadata by default. You can disable this in the "Export image as PNG" dialog but best would likely be to run your textures with optipng which losslessly optimises PNG images and removes this superfluous metadata. Minetest Game has a Bash script that runs optipng with the optimal settings on an entire directory recursively.

One thing that really helped me is looking at the source code and assets of one game that I really enjoyed -- SNKRX, the creator of the game, a327ex, put everything on Github so you can take a look how a finished game looks: https://github.com/a327ex/SNKRX/. The repo even includes the various images needed for Steam, this was very nice so I could make sure some of the assets I made aren't unfit for their purpose: https://github.com/a327ex/SNKRX/tree/master/assets/media . There are also some Photoshop files provided on the Steamworks FAQ which are very useful too, but they mainly show just in which area of the image you shouldn't put important text etc.

If it helps, here's a devlog for a reasonably successful game built in love2d.

I'm the developer of SNKRX and on top of what most other people mentioned, the truth of the matter is that making games is hard and making games while working on someone else's codebase is even harder. Anyone who has the capacity to do anything useful with your game's codebase will likely also have the capacity to make their own game from scratch, so they'll just do that instead.

SNKRX is a commercial game and is open source (MIT), but it's not an open source project -- the developer is focused on improving their game for their gaming community and not building a development community around the game.
