ds-craft

DS-Craft is a Minecraft clone for Nintendo DS, writeen in C and C++.

Controls

Press left and right on the D-Pad to move horizontally, press D-Pad up to jump, the Select button to open your inventory, the A button to place block, and the B to destroy block. To select an item from the hotbar, press the R button.

Touch to move

If touch-to-move is enabled in the settings, you can ose the bottom screen to move around. For horizontal movement, touch the bottom screen on either side. To jump, touch the top of the bottom screen.

If touch the move is set to "right-handed" then the D-Pad and ABXY buttons are swapped (except in inventory and menus), so down on the D-Pad becomes the B button, etc.

You can still use the d-pad, even if touch to move is enabled.

Inventory manipulation

The A button selects an inventory slot. Pressing A again will either stack the items or move them. To select next hotbar slot press the R button.

Crafting

Press the R button to select the next crafting recipe. Press the A button to craft the item, if you have enough items for that.

Building and running

With command line

If you just want to compile, use make. To make and then run, use make build run (but you need to modify the emulator in the makefile). To recompile, use make clean build and if you want to recompile and run use make clean build run.

Using Code::Blocks (on Linux)

To build, press the Build button on the top of the window. To run, press the Run button on the top of the window. To build and run, press the Build and Run button on the top of the window. To recompile, select the clean configuration using a dropbox next to the build and run button, then press the Build button. Then switch to the build configuration.

Note that Code::Blocks support is only supported on Linux.
