This (on notblockedgames.cf) is illegal. You have to give an option to opt out of cookies.

Edit: Ok, your entire website is very dodgy. Why does it give an unstoppable alert when I try to use inspect element?
Also, nice job obfuscating your IP-grabbing code. Nope nope nope.

Yikes

Added an opt-out option, and no, I am not actually logging the IPs that I get.

DarthVader29, I'm the SortaCraft dev and no, this is not my game.

huh it doesnt for me, F12, ctrl + shift + i, all work

you may have a nice house...
but do you have a house with a bomb shelter???

I built an underground city in my house but I didn't screenshot it

You make me sick, Do you have a house in a castle wall with a bomb shelter?

LOL looks like we got competition. In our (Ok, tussiez mostly made it, I just helped him make it work offline and such) minecraft (sortacraft), we are making gravitational pull (with terminal velocity), as well as light blocks. We are planning to add other cool stuff too!

come check out our competition!

Btw, nice! My school blocks anything with minecraft in the url (not this post tho...), but from what I have seen in the pics gives the impression hard work.
Keep it up!

Thanks! May I have a link to your Minecraft?

not mine (although tussiez credits me a whole lot thanks tussiez :D), but yeh. It's really buggy right now, can't move (jumping has caused you to glitch up in the air and stay there), but come back later (tussiez and I are working on getting jumping done) and it might just work. Also, we might just use WASM to speed up the game. We also use web workers to make the game run faster (although it's still slow cuz it loads chunks), because web workers allow you to use multithreadedness. Overall, it's really laggy and buggy, but that's because of all the features we are putting in. Oh, it's also a PWA and works offline.

(DISCLAIMER: NOT WORKING WELL YET).

World generation is great! Just need to fix the fact that you can walk through half slabs. Also, it may be a good idea to draw text to the canvas instead of in HTML elements because it's faster. Or at least disable highlighting for a better user experience. Just add another canvas right on top of the other one. All of the DOM events will go right through to the lower canvas. And what 3D rendering library are you using? I am using ThreeJS.

He (tussiez) is using threejs. What text? It goes to another file for the new world generation. The only text I know of is the version display, which shouldn't take up as much power. Actually, putting it in canvas may be worse, since canvas is the element that gets constantly updated. As for the user select, I don't think that would be a good idea to turn it off, in case they want to copy/paste version, but yeah it might be a good idea. As for half slabs, he's working on that. Combining two slabs makes water (for a test he was doing).

The comments section chat isn't really time-efficient. If I shared the Minecraft repl with you, you wouldn't sabotage it right?

XD no (I don't do that, besides u can revert changes if someone did happen to sabotage it). I can't really chat rn, but if u want help I can make it work offline by using recycled code from our service worker on our game.

I have shared it with you. There is a file in the root directory called chat.txt. If you or me have any questions we can leave them there.

I'm the owner :)

He thought I was the owner XD. I had to give u credit where he thought I made the game. As I stated, I'm the math man, and the guy who helps with physics and performance, nothing more, nothing less :D. It has still been an honor (not saying I'm quitting, saying it has been an honor) to work with u on this :D

I can share it with you too if you want to check out the code.

On your thoughts about the GUI, the inventory is dependent on HTML elements since I'm too lazy to write down positions (e.g 254,542), however that's a good idea anyway. I am using CSS to animate the tools though, and that's why I'm using elements. Half slabs were actually a test, and it works :) The collisions don't check for slabs, however I could simply do ".5" instead of "1". Disabling highlighting isn't too hard..

I wouldn't say the game is laggy.. it typically runs about 30-40 fps on Chromebooks, but works fine on more powerful devices. Keep in mind Chromebooks can't handle Minecraft very well (They've released Education Edition for the Chromebook, but it's a very "lightweight" version of the game)

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah :) I cannot thank you enough for all the help, SortaCraft wouldn't be where it is today if it weren't for you. I think we're almost "done" on physics.

Yes chromebooks are slow. You are definately doing better than me on performance, especially with block destruction.

With your help, SortaCraft is over 2x faster, offline, and we can jump! (However it isn't working right now)

There's so much more to do, the performance can still get much faster...

Ez fix. Cache main file that deals with game, that way it is served over internet faster. If course, this only helps on startup time, but can still help improve. The rest, try using web workers because then you have multiple threads doing different things (especially good for math). You can also do WASM which speeds up things faster since its an assembly language, meaning it can run faster than javascript and is also compiled instead of interpreted.

I can help you with Web Workers - they're a big help
I'm available sometime after 2-3 EST

Oof yeah
Especially geometry data generation
It's all math and could be done on the GPU

When I first read that, I was like "Oh, no are we not gonna work on physics?", then I saw "after 2-3 EST" (XD). Uhm, also I can work 2-3 CST, but did u say u are available 2-3 EST (I forgot if u said we can collab on ur game 2-3 CST or 2-3 EST)?

wants to, I could write down some quick instructions on how to use Web Workers today, but that's probably it. I still need to fix jumping, so I'm still available at 2-3 CST.
The reason why I put EST is because I don't know what time zone

is in.. 2 EST = 1 CST
Sorry about all the confusion, I'm in school right now

Same time-zone eastern standard time. I can research webworker myself it's fine but thank you.

XD, ok yea see u at 2-3 CST. I should make a tutorial on web workers and such...

The slownessof this comment section is killing me!! Use the chat file in the repl I shared!!

That's a great idea!

Got it! Feel free to ask for help anytime.

ye s

Nice job Baconmans school. My schools proxy and firewall I bypass uber-easily. It is absolute trash. There technique is just blocking certain sites that they choose, doesn't matter the URL. Feel bad for [email protected]

Wow no offense but that load time is [email protected]

Been like that for hours lol (like 2 minutes now)

It's a game with more features, that's why it's slower. Plus, I have some ideas on how to make it faster.
Wait, this game, or the one tussiez and I made?

World gen is amazing though

XD its on a chromebook, so the extension only blocks "actual" requests (one you type in the address/search bar) and Iframes that need to be blocked. I just fetch the website then put it as a srcdoc attribute XD (ofc I can't load external file resources, but good for reading articles).

The tussiez and u one. Also I'm on a chromebook so it would be slow with features or not lol.

Funny, you, tussiez and I are on chromebooks for school (u on school chromebook?), yet I have not heard of a school except for mine that uses chromebooks (ok I've only been to two schools and the current one has chromebooks but still).

Nice. I created and a proxy server myself. It would not work in your case though, because in you need to put the url you want to go to in the URL. (such as https://proxy.sojs.repl.co/proxy/https:/slither.io)
You also cant log into stuff with google on it, because google is very particular about what sites you are able to login to it [email protected] Also super glitchy if u r playing multiplayer. Cant guarantee it will work.

Most schools think use chromebooks now. And yes, I'm on a school [email protected]

Here is pretty cool proxy https://repl.it/@lilpeen/stuff?lite=true&outputonly=1 I didn't make it though

I've made one like that at https://repl.it/@sojs/chromium-browser-1. The problem with chromium unblockers is that if u dont have hacker plan it you cant load to many sites on it otherwise it crashes (repl memory used up)[email protected] And the shift key doesnt work so you have to look up "lowercase to capitol letters to get what you want lol.

XD school blocks anything with "proxy" in it.

hehew. ur school is tough. Hold [email protected]

Don't come to my school if u wanna learn coding. Also, it's for autistic kids so.... (ye Im autistic)

I'm on a chromebook and it's a school chromebook the fps isn't that good

That's the problem we are trying to fix. We want performance to be really good.

oh ok =)

Well, you got more competition now.
