From one box to another, I present joyous news to all.

INTERNET PLAY FOR ALL!

A bug was found that prevented internet play from working.
We put said bug into a box.
This box was placed into the back of a truck.
This truck was placed precariously at the edge of a cliff.
The cliff was lined with TNT and subsequently detonated.

Play Box Simulator

To play Box Simulator over the internet, the PC hosting the game must have the port forwarded to it. Exactly the same if you use a torrent client or host your own Minecraft server.

I am led to believe this bug fix is acceptable and within the rules and guidelines of the competition. Please let me know if I am mistaken and I’ll move this build to another link.

This is kind of like a premortem?

If you can imagine the compo was conception of an idea then this is the idea beginning to grow and take shape.

I have had an overwhelming response to Box Simulator, with many people asking for more. Unreluctantly, I have decided to give up some precious spare time to put in some elbow grease here, and a spit shine there to start polishing Box Sim. Check out the link below to see the latest post comp additions to Box Simulator and for a download link.

Internet play has been confirmed as working, you need to forward a port if you wish to host a server though. New networking backend to come in the coming days.
