    So other than the hold-to-dig thing discussed.. what other features are looking to be added into this game? I have heard plans for updates n such, I'm sure just wondering what has specifically been planned.

    Will there be a creature like the Creeper that explodes and takes away blocks?

    Ahh, whew! Thanks. I'm at work and can't check. Good to know.

    Seriously, every time a dev restricts user music, I want to track them down, locate their house, break in and leave a note ridiculing their CD collection.

    Lots and lots and lots planned. Animal breeding, water, quests; bunch of stuff. Some of it you can read about here:

    Yes, thankfully if you ENSURE that Junk Jack is completely closed, start your music, then open JJ, you're good as gold :)

    I'd like to see the issue fixed anyway.

    I cannot wait for the update. Good times coming soon :)

    Is their forum really slow for everybody, or is it just me?

    Oh ok I must not have shut down the app properly and just switched from music to JJ and back again. Atleast it works.

    Yes, we know about that. I guess it's a CocosDenshion fault (that relies on OpenAL for audio rendering). I'll investigate the issue to see if it's possible to fix so that you are allowed to start music while playing!

    The slice that hosts the server is like 4x more powerful compared to usual slices, the problem is that it is hosted here in Italy so there is high latency :)
    If things will grow we'll need in any case a serious hosting that will be mostly in US!

    This game has impacted on me like a Nintendo Snes Classic back in the day. The thought, polish (despite the bugs),balance and depth ( no pun intended !)....

    It's just a lovely lovely thing.

    I currently have a massive multi level glass house where I'm gathering statues together on the roof. Livestock spawn in my living room (just started happening suddenly, like I'd hit the right conditions in my greenhouse !) providing food and the place is decked out like crystal palace !

    I'm building up my resources for a rebuild on a new world. I'm at the point where I'm planning my new home on paper first. It's going to be a giant homage to something or other ... Not quite sure yet ....

    Just bought the game and am loving it. It's my first crafting game, so I am really bad, but it's fun. How do I recover lost health?

    Fruit from trees, bandaids from buried first aid boxes, purple mushrooms, bacon from pigs (cooked recovers more hearts!)

    Kill pigs for meat, then roast it in your forge to get max benefit!

    Open medical chests for pills and bandages. Also collect fruit from trees etc

    Yeah, but cooked pig isn't worth it. Coal is too valuable (torches...endlessly...making...torches...)

    You can use green goo to make torches though. I tend to use all my coal up by making ore bars.

    Where do you find the goo? I had JUST found the jungle biome and the whole thing crashed on me, causing me to be infinitely stuck in hell.

    I wonder if I can get out? Anyone have any tips on that?

    That's why I dont mind the odd monster spawn in my glass mansion. With a decent sword you can attack from far off, dodge the attacks and they are as useful as pigs spawning in your front room ! Lol

    Btw does everyone else have this curious spawning like my greenhouse ?
    Maybe using glass as a building material was a mistake :/

    Pixbits, is there any chance you could extend the height of the gameworld? I tried to build a mighty Mordor like tower but I soon hit the ceiling.

    Now I have a tiny tower and am consumed by tower envy :-(

    Ps, my tower also needs lots of lava......you know, because Hobbits.

    I had that problem for a while, but after I deleted it I was able to move on to other games.

    (sorry I couldn't resist!)
