Current state

Here are some more information:

I added a random generated galaxy:

The look isn't finished yet but you can see the arms and solar systems (20.000 at the moment).
Then you can choose a system and explore the planets.

At the planet you have an area bordered with (here red) fences and you are able to build buildings in it.
Your 'workers' (here red) can take resources to your main building.

In the next days I will add some other species (living on the planet), health etc.

Some pre pre previews :D

Resources, Inventory and Planet types

I added different planet types like
- Rock
- Volcano
- Forest
- Desert
- ...

Screenshots will follow.
Furthermore there is the ability to search for resources like iron, stone, etc. and to place a block (factory) to get the resource.

Edit:
One Screenshot (there will be more types):

Planet types: Rock | Ice | Forest | Volcano

RPG progress

Today I added pseudo ambient occlusion.
I think it looks more realistic :).

I also added a helper who can kill pigs for you :D.

Update with bug fix

Since a few minutes the new update is available.
It fixes the bad bug on startup. Please report any other bug you find :)

BTW we uploaded this update last Friday but Apple needs one week to review it.

Robert :)

Bad bug on startup!

We are very sorry about this annoying bug.
It has to do with the time it takes to open the app. If the app takes longer than a few seconds Apple shuts down the app.
Yesterday I uploaded a new update but Apple has to review it first :( (takes normally one week).
If we test an app on our devices, we have no 'timeout'.

Please try to open the app again and again (should work because sometime the app will finish the work). If this doesn't not work please wait for the update.

Robert :/

Just a few hours to work!

We worked every day and today we almost finished the app.
Tomorrow we will upload the app to Apple and then Apple will review it (this will take a while).

We hope it will be available one week later.

Mob models

Here is a screenshot showing the a textured bat.
Currently we are working on the models and this take a lot of time but I ensure you that we work every day and that we do our best to release this update as soon as possible!

We also added gui - textures like the inventory etc :)

Updated features

Today, I improved the list of the items (blocks etc.).
I added small previews of the items.

I will fix the names (for example the 'n'n from wooden axe)

Of course I will add graphics but this is the prototype :D

Robert :)

Some new features

Hi (the next posts I won't begin with 'Hello' or 'Hi' -> boring :P),
I would like to inform you about the new features. Most of you asked us to add 3D support and something like gui, rain etc. Probably we will add these featues :). I am working on a Minecraft - like 3D room where you can see your teturepacks in action (only showing not crafting and placing blocks).
We also thought about a new resolution 128x128 but we will only add this if it's not too hard to draw.
Another feature will be some new tools (something like selection etc.).

I don't know if we can implement all these features but we will try :)
Please comment if you don't like some ideas or share your ideas.

Robert :)

More screenshots will follow.

Here is the first screenshot, showing the 3D view. The final 3D - room won't be random generated but I want to show you this example (the app is still in development). I will add colors, graphics etc.

We stopped pixelquester and started a big update

Hello again,
sadly we stopped the project 'pixelquester'. We are very sorry about that but we have to work on a new very big update of our app 'Texture Maker' for you because in a few days Mojang will release a new Minecraft version (Redstone Update) with a new texture system.
We are working on the update and I will inform you about the new features.
We will release it as soon as possible.
