Dig World - Development Timelapse

20 hours of development in just 1 minute:

And now I need to write a devlog

Hackers have attacked Dig World server

Maybe..

If you have not seen my game yet, it is an MMO sandbox, here's the link: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/48/dig-world

Now, here's the story:

One of the comments made on my game was by @togis who showcased my game on his stream and uploaded it to youtube (https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=Sx1MQ445u7k&t=8958s):

You may notice that when he joined the server he said hello to a random person without a passport.

This dude was just sitting there near the moneymaker pretending to be doing nothing

Now, earlier today I also joined @itsboats's stream. Unfortunately their VOD was not saved, but I was there when it happened.

At first I did not even notice, since the he blended well into the environment, but the suspicious guy was still present on the server in the same exact spot doing something suspicious.

And well, right during the stream while I was playing with boats, we noticed that our characters stopped synchronizing.

And this was it. I looked up on the server, and indeed, the hacker has done it! The server has been crashed!

May 17 07:23:10 kuviman bash[10744]: memory allocation of 838860800 bytes failed May 17 07:23:10 kuviman systemd[612]: ld48-server.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=6/ABRT May 17 07:23:10 kuviman systemd[612]: ld48-server.service: Failed with result 'signal'. May 17 07:23:20 kuviman systemd[612]: ld48-server.service: Service hold-off time over, scheduling restart.

The server has an autorestart tho so you can still play the game, but it does not save anything to disk, and keeps all the world in memory. So that means that everything that was built by all other players - houses, ladders to the hell and to the sky, LD48 sign, all the swear words and statues - are gone now. The server has been wiped.

I was actually planning to make a save by connecting the client and downloading it all but I guess I cant do that anymore.

The server was up since the beginning of ludumdare and now, 1 and a half day before the results, this is the first incident.

Press F

Extremely Extreme News!!!

Thanks everyone for playing my little game!

We have now reached 100 ratings on it :boom: I am EXTREMELY HAPPY with how the game turned out, now figuring out how to go about making it even better.

If you would like to see the game developed further, and have more races together in the future, I invite you to our discord server.

Also, records have been broken!

We now have

  • @arthurds at 3rd place with 90001 score.
  • @bogden at 2nd with 92211
  • And the king @meep at 115428. It is really interesting since the game only generates obstacles up until 100k since I really thought it would be impossible to reach that. Well, I guess my math was wrong, ggs.
