# Lazarr!
|
|
Be a pirate and solve laser puzzles.
|
|
|
|
A pirate-themed 3D puzzle game by Wuzzy.
|
|
|
|
Current version: 1.4.0
|
|
|
|
**PLEASE NOTE**: THIS GAME IS INCOMPLETE!
|
|
It is playable, but the current levels are underwhelming.
|
|
Stay tuned for version 2.0.0!
|
|
|
|
## Gameplay
|
|
You're a pirate in the search of treasure.
|
|
Sail to different places of the world and find all shiny gold blocks
|
|
in treasure chests to advance to the next level.
|
|
|
|
But there's a catch! Most chests are locked by a mysterious mechanism
|
|
and the only way to unlock them is by solving a laser puzzle by
|
|
sending lasers to all detectors. Mirrors and other things will help you.
|
|
|
|
### Getting started
|
|
You start in the captain's cabin, the base of your treasure-hunting
|
|
operations. Use the book in front of you to select the first level.
|
|
|
|
The spinning information blocks will guide you through the levels.
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
You need Minetest version 5.5.0 (or later) to play this.
|
|
Download Minetest from <https://www.minetest.net>.
|
|
|
|
Refer to Minetest documentation to learn how to install a game in Minetest.
|
|
|
|
Once installed, create a world and start. The world contains your game's
|
|
progress and custom levels.
|
|
|
|
## Level Editor
|
|
Lazarr! contains a level editor.
|
|
|
|
See `LEVEL_EDITOR.md` to read how it works.

|
## History
|
|
|
|
Originally, this game was hastily made for the Minetest Game Jam 2021 in the
|
|
final day of the competition.
|
|
Version 1.2 was the version that was rated by the jury and players.
|
|
This version only had 10 levels, and level 8 was broken.
|
|
There was no base ship or any in-game explanation of the game.
|
|
But the main laser game mechanic worked, something I am very proud of I actually
|
|
managed to hack this together in only in one day.
|
|
Unsurprisingly, the game ranked poorly, only at rank 13.
|
|
|
|
In the years after, this game has seen some improvements since then,
|
|
but I'm still not satisfied with it.
