Survive Attack - GIB3D - 48 Hour Compo Entry
It is meant to be a survival game based on a 16x3x16 chunk. You have limited space and you must make a farm, eat and protect the farm to stay alive.
At the moment there is only simple farming. There is no way to get more crop yet. There are also no enemies to protect your farm from.

The inspiration for the game came from many places, but yea the terrain generator I made was based on the minecraft terrain generator. Although mine is a bit buggier.
Cool. You have a good start to a farming game there.
I like that you mention your inspiration too.
Using the mouse for both the camera and pressing buttons feels odd.
Updated it:
Added: Scrollable item list (there's only 3 possible items though)
Added: Hotbar. Assign items by selecting them then doing Ctrl + (0-9)
Changed: The mouse controls the drection you place/remove the block
Changed: The keyboard no longer rotates the player
Fixed: Player was able to place blocks outside the bounds on the Z axis
Note: You can place any placeable (not a word?) block in mid-air, including the crop which is kind of weird
Haha, made a mistake, I said something wrong. The keyboard does rotate the camera but only when holding shift.
Good graphics, but the controlls works a bit bad (I think).
Good job.
The reason it lacks gameplay is because I spent most of the time trying to wrap my head around how I to place/remove/use all these different items with my unfinished terrain generator. I hadn't tried to make a full-on terrarian crafting system before either so that took my quite a bit of time. I was also using the Pro Trial which I'm out of now so even if I did continue with this, it'd look so ugly that'd you'd wanna tear your eyes out with a hot spoon.
