Update #1

Seeing as the theme has caught my imagination, I have decided to enter.

However, there is a catch: realistically, I only have one day to work in and I can’t stay up that long either, seeing as I have a long car journey tomorrow. So! My ultra-speedy entry is going to be called something along the line of “Honest Joe’s Discount Terraforming”.

It’s simple: you play Honest Joe. Honest Joe sells custom planets – at low, low prices! Of course at low prices, your planet isn’t very big – and the terraforming isn’t very accurate! Fire bundles of water, sand, soil and more at the target planet, in order to paint its surface with a specific proportion of each terrain type.

Hopefully this will be simple enough for me to finish in time, with a decent amount of polish too.

I’m working in C++, using SFML. Pictures willcome soon, and as usual I’m creating a time-lapse video of my progress.
