It’s isometric Minecraft. Controls are in-game. Still unfinished, there are bugs in the tilemap system. Features: Place/Break, Saving/Load slots, and rotating the tilemap.
I need ideas for features or blocks, and art will be accepted. Also a question, what is a `tilemap32`?
Doesn’t let me edit. I want to see what it is though? Theres also `tilemap4`, `tilemap8`, `tilemap16` (but that one just turns into `tilemap` after edit), and `tilemap32`. Will it ever be supported?

Hardware is not meant to support games of this magnitude

I designed it so it can run on hardware. That is why instead of using game.showLongText() I used scene.backgroundImage().fillRect(), drawRect(), and print() (image text extension). It uses way less mem than the builtins because the built-ins are sprites (2 per dialog, the A button image and the textbox).

This version’s way better. Changes:
- added toggleable grid (double click menu)
- rotation now flips textures so stairs dont break
- inventory items 3d
- to get savecode go into code editor for project and build your thing then save and load, it will print to console
- to load, go into the editor then if you can find the `loadFromArray` function (not the definition section. I mean the place where it runs, the existing one has `loadFromArray([` at the start) and replace that entire function with the one copied from console.
