Here's my "technical" entry for this year. Or rather, how much I've got of it so far. I don't have Pack200 support on my server yet (why is it even needed? can't the jvm handle that?), so it's a bit bigger than it needs to be: http://www.mojang.com/notch/j4k/minecraft4k/ |

I have no idea how to turn this into a game. Reduce the boxes by maybe 20%, and make it a vertical fall game, whereas you need to find the route down before... something kills you. |

A maze type game could work, yes. =) For the implementation, it's a 3d raycaster with one ray per pixel, at a very reduced resolution. I use unit cubes, so I can abuse float->int casts for the clipping. There are some nifty side effects from doing a raycaster, such as fisheye lenses being possible at no penalty to framerate. I will try to squeeze in nicer textures, a nicer level generator, and tile adding/removing just to make it live up to the name. |

Dear Markus,
You literally sicken me. About 1% is the lack of reverse mouselook (what's up with that dude? Real men reverse. For real.), and 99% is the agonising, searing jealousy that is the inevitable conclusion of looking at something you've done and being confronted with your manifest talent. I have no words.
Sincerely
ryanm

The early tech demo worked well on this aging powerbook g4. The later screenshots look great. I'm looking forward to this.

Uh..  !! The fact this is LESS THAN 2K and smooth first person movement in a 3D world is... staggering. (bows at greatness) Great work already (again) Markus! |

+1 Or at least have a special submit time for Markus, to only do it the last week, to not scare the rest of us away. Holey crap, that is amazing!!! It will be really interesting to see what You will do with the remaining 2k. I fully expect WoW or maybe Assassins creed 4. I sort of longed a bit to do a game this year, but it died a little.  Will see if it still will happen. |

You're responding to what? That we then won't be able to see a Markus 4k game? I agree it is always a treat. |

I managed to shave off more than 40 bytes AND make it almost three times faster by using fixed step walking and splitting the dimensions into individual passes. So first it walks along X, at fixed steps (x+=xStep; y+=yStep; z+=zStep), and stores the closest hit wall, then it repeats the same for Y and finally Z. |

Yeah, then as a side effect he can't enter. Muahuahua... my plan exactly. Either that or we give him a lifetime achievement award and not let him enter anymore. Seriously I wish he would hold off for a few months before shattering my confidence. |

If I really had that effect, I'm sorry. I don't want anyone to pull out at all, I love the creative vibe of these Java4k competitions. |
