Hi there!
I just finished the first version of my game GemMiner
It needs an advanced computer too.

Currently it doesn't have saving functions..

But it has an installer:

And, I could NOT have done it without the help of:

Great thanks to you guys!

Instead of screenshots, I made a video: https://www.dropbox....on/gemminer.avi

No worries, but I really didn't do much...

Might I suggest that you add this code to the start. It will make sure that the user has the correct version of CC and its an advanced computer...

if not term.isColor then
  error( "This game requires ComputerCraft 1.4+ to play", 0)
elseif not term.isColor() then
  error( "This game requires and Advanced Computer to play", 0)
end

Also in your installer you may want to add

if not http then
  error( "This installer requires the http API to be enabled", 0)
end

That sounds like great ideas! I'll add that.

Seriously dude, get over it....... all you ever post in are threads without pictures saying "No pics, no clicks." ... most of which all say that screenshots are coming soon ...

Because I'm using a picture for The frame, no.

That's not the only way to draw the frame. Consider using paintutils.drawLine.

Nice app you have there

[TheOddByte]

May I ask this: What kind of game it is? What do you do?
And please try to add screenshots soon since I guarantee that people will test this if they see a screenshot.
I would love to test this but i'm not on my computer right now so..

[Spongy141]

Nice, its nice to see more games being made than OSes.

[TheOddByte]

I'm also glad that more people have started making games instead of OSes but Idk what the purpose of this game is..
Like how do you get a multiplier and stuff, And can you even win or do you just press random gems until you die irl?
