Hello. A simple game where you place the pieces you have the right way so they fit. I'm still designing some idea's to make it more interesting. Goes from easy to hard. You play in various themed arenas. Here's 2 arenas already.

Aztec:


Artic:


c&c always welcome. More soon!

That looks really good! Did you do all the models and textures yourself?

thanks for the comments. The models are all by me, but since I'm not that good a texture artist, the textures are not. They are textures that I found on the web. There are some textures from me, or at least ones that I editted though.

I'll check that out, thanks.. I'm having some trouble at-the-moment with collision etc. to make the pieces stay inside, I made scripted position restrictions for every angle, which was alot of (unneccessairy) work. Now I'm trying to figure out how to tell the computer you've finished a puzzle. I was going for something like a hidden box on every place, and when all are collided with, you've finished. But DB collision sucks, so I cant get that to work. I might change the block totally, and work with an array or something..

1-Use it
2-Scrap it, but try the fantasy style again
3-Scrap it, and forget the fantasy style

1. Its quite impressive work you've got here, I'm curious to see how your engine works when its complete. Don't let this project wander off into nothingness!

Very nice work man...hmm in the fantasy one the colour of the leaves of the tree doesnt fit well...looks more like its been spraypainted on than modeled...the musrooms look lovely though as does the workspace...the only other criticism i may make is the tree roots look a little boxy.

But i feel bad picking at what seems such a great game...good luck !

Very nice ;P. I can see a good game here .
Remember to concentrate on gameplay though :S - People are more likely to vote a game with sucky gfx but kick ass gameplay .
Cheers,
Nick.

Well.. You get a bunch of tetris style blocks, and you rotate and move them so they fit in a square. Ancient concept, but fun to do. To not make it too repetitive, I'm making lots of scenery, and in the end, different shapes of play-area's.. I'm having some problems with the code atm though.. DB build-in collision sucks..

Sounds pretty good! But how are you gonna pull it off in 3D, like when the blocks pile up high enough that you can't see the bottom level of blocks anymore... or am I just missing something?

I'd try and make it more "alice-in-wonderland" fantasy style. Btw, what program is this you're using for the maps?
