Read title.

I used to play with WASD, Space, and the numerical keys to shoot wherever I pleased without having to spend time and space aiming with a mouse or manually by stopping to look. The latest update removed the bindings for diagonal shooting so this has really hurted me in particular, and I suspect other people who got used to that control scheme might have this problem as well.

I humbly ask for the diagonal shooting bindings to be implemented into the config screen.

I bought the Humble Bundle and would like to add it to my Voxatron account. How do I do this?

Version 0.1.5 is now available! The most interesting change in this version is that it's now possible to create your own character graphics for a particular level. Once you update, here's a level to try it out on:

I've just discovered that 0.1.5 breaks vob loading. So, if you need to load any vobs in the editor, you might want to wait approximately 6 hours for v0.1.6, which is a quick patch to fix this. So much for my fail-safe testing procedure. [~ _ ~] ROBOT DISAPPROVES.

In the meantime, you could try drawing over the fox in this level (vob number 6). Or there are some notes near the end of vox.txt on how to set up a character from scratch.

UPDATE: This is now fixed in 0.1.6

What if as your next project you turned Voxatron into a MMO style game?

• F2P mmo with a Cosmetic cash shop (maybe browser based for convenience and accessability)

• random generated dungeons with several tiered explorable lands, killing bosses doing small quests etc.

• lots of super cool loot and gear

• Bartering only trade system (no money)

Your beautiful 3d voxel graphics similar minecraft and 3d dot game heroes..with epic coop/pvp multiplayer gameplay would be a huge success imo.

You'd not only make lots of gamers happy bringing a game like this into the market but surely you'd make $$$$$

gogo make it happen..

OR am i just dreaming?

It has occured to me that I can't find out how to use my code from the humble bundle, I can't find a place to put in the code to get the game and i feel i may have wasted money.help!

For the first week of Voxatron's release, Lexaloffle has been basically in information processing mode. Not only processing incoming bug reports and feature requests (which I do appreciate, by the way!) but also revising the systems for processing and processing the results of this process. The whole thing is one step away from a giant cluster-fuck, I'm telling you.

But one thing I've just updated which I think will clearly provide a bit of relief is to divide the Voxatron forum into sections, including a support/bug reports forum. I'll get around to actually tackling more of these soon, but at least perhaps people having similar issues can now find each other.

Voxatron Sections

It also provides a mechanism for organising the levels that are being posted. There are now 3 sections just for levels, each with a very distinct function.

Finished Levels: This is for posting levels that are polished, completeable, and unlikely to be updated. (or not until a major version update in the case of WIPs).

when I accidently clicked save to instead of load. So I overwrote my map with the custom plain green start map.

Anychance to recover it?

Hi Everyone!

Just a quick little note to make sure your level is linked to the BBS as I see many blank posts with no link at the top.

MAKE SURE! that when you have uploaded your level and you are posting it you LEAVE the code eg. [#1934] at the top of your page. OTHERWISE your level will not appear on the BBS and people will not be able to access it.

I hope I have helped as I encountered this as well.

OK, we have a Lava Base, but why not add a Water Base? :D Im doing a Long Adventure Map and Im wanting to add Water Base with a bridge and etc. Im planning to add the Lava Base in the end, right before the Last Levels.

There are more and more "Test", "Just a test", etc. levels. Why are you even posting them when its just testing?
All the test levels show up in the game and as long as we can't search/filter the bbs list it would be great if you would stop posting test levels.

.. or, if there already is support for iControlpad/bluetooth dualstick gamepads, please excuse me for not knowing how to set it up ..

Yes! I finally got Voxatron!

Wouldn't it be good to have a "Download all levels" feature or at least a "Download all levels on this page" feature considering levels are so small? It would save a lot of time from individually downloading all the levels on the BBS.

And maybe also a choseable level ground as water (like lava).

Another good one would be just black (abyss) that makes the character fall out of vision and die after that.

Here's the map file for Adventure Mode:

Keep in mind that this level evolved as I was adding stuff to the editor. So it's a bit messy -- not the best example to learn from. There are some weird triggering schemes that were work-arounds for missing features that now exist.

By posting this file on the BBS, it's now creative commons. So feel free to remix it, make a hard or easy version, grab any models you want or sell it on the side of the street.

Respect to oldtopman for managing to pick the map out of vox.dat with a hex editor. You can thank him for prompting me to post it a earlier than I would have otherwise.

Voxatron just gave me an idea for a new Minecraft Texture pack!

I'm thinking about buying Voxatron, but after 15 minutes of watching videos about it, I got bored of watching this guy die on level three for 5 minutes. It's still a REALLY cool game, but one thing that the game needs to make it more popular is Online Multiplayer with chat.

Love the game, excited to see where it'll go, all that stuff everyone's said. :) There are a couple things I'd like to see implemented though.

1) In the editor it's possible to see the shadows items cast come down directly beneath them, but this doesn't appear possible in the game. I'd like to have this as an option, since it would making jumping sections easier to manage.
2) A voting system for BBS Levels would be great, of course. What I'd also like is some way to distinguish between levels you've already completed and ones you haven't, so you can keep track of what you've completed.

Thanks,
-Zach
