I think mm will be bioluminescent, but the reach of his luminescence will be very short (and done with a simple mask which adds to the current lighting layer). That way you can always see your character and his state, but still be fumbling in the dark if you forget to bring a torch or Mk 5 MoonLantern. @Cyral The final lighting is fundamentally what I described way back in that quoted post. The main work on it has been making it run in parallel on 16x16 block size "subchunks", mapping the light values to rendered light values, using multiple passes of light, etc. If you tackle this problem, you should start a thread with your progress and I might pop by and suggest some things / steal your ideas.  |

Musics are on your to do list?  If yes, you plan they random, like in Minecraft, or there will be a specific music for specific moment? I think mm will be bioluminescent
There will be neons inside him? (ok, that's not BIOluminescence). That would be funny. Or he will be like a firefly? If he will be like a firefly, you should need to eat luciferase and luciferin to light your way?  (how idiot my gameplay mechanic ideas can be?). But maybe that could be a cool game mechanic, to fuel your light you need to eat some luciferase. |

I'm curious about what you plan to do for the music as well. Do you have an artist already lined up?  |

Great idea @thecoolestnerdguy, I like the idea of having to consume something to power your internal light. As for music, yep, it will be random short ambient segments like Minecraft. I've been talking with a musician for a few months now, but music really won't make it in for a couple more months. I've also got an idea to sync the musical events with visual events, e.g., a jumping rabbit might jump to the "beat" of the music. I'd really like to do something subtle along those lines, but I guess it just comes down to whether I have the time. :D |

This sounds like the best game ever conceived! Yes, if you do like rabbits. I prefer: Exploring around in MM... Found some moonpuppies... suddenly ACHIVEMENT UNLOCKED find more than 10 moonpuppies togheter ... And the moonpuppies start to jump around in the rythm of the beat... |

Oh yeh, don't do that. Give yourself like 10 minutes in the morning to check, then concentrate on making games for the rest of the day. Otherwise before you know it you'll be a level 10 with no good games to your name.  As for me, this week I'm working on another project, but I'll be back on moonman next week! |

Update: Added damage types (slash/mine/blunt/chop), so e.g., an axe has a chop of 8 and a blunt of 2, so is good at chopping down trees (because the wood block has a chop damage type). Started working on the sounds, spent ages looking at different sound libraries online, indiesfx.co.uk didn't look too bad, but I ended just getting a couple from freesound. I added place and break block sounds, and tomorrow will add the weapon-block interaction sounds, and hopefully the remaining few sounds (land,pickup,change item). Also I might have a new music guy, so that's nice.

I don't noticed the difference that the sound effects make until play Minecraft without sound. Also, MM should have some cosmic sounds,should't? Also I might have a new music guy, so that's nice.
Can't wait to listen to some Moon soundtrack. |
