User guide
How to play
The goal of the game is to kill the Air Wizard, who lives up in the sky.
To get access to the sky, you must find stairs to delve into the earth to find gems to make a gem pickaxe.
There are 3 levels in the underground. Each level has it's own level of ore; you can smelt the ores in the furnace to make Iron/Gold bars to make better weapons with the anvil.
- First level - Iron ore.
- Second level (water) - Gold ore.
- Third level (lava) - Gem ore.
(Yes gold tools are better than iron tools in this game.)
It is advised to accumulate at-least 100 gems to make both a pickaxe and a sword. After that go back up to the surface and find the stairs that lead up to the clouds, then you will face off against the air-wizard.
Texture packs
As of beta build 4, you can create texture packs for the game.
Texture pack consists of 3 .png files, which can be found in DefaultTexturePack.zip.
To add a description, just edit the global comment of the .zip file (use 7zip or winRAR).
