WIP The Distorted - A Corruption alt. of glitches

[Meowelody]

So, as you know, many games have glitches and if not all, then the majority. I took this into consideration and though to myself "Hey, what if there was a corruption alt. dedicated to glitches?". I then got to work, work on this virus which would make the world a messed up scramble of code (not really, but you get the point). So, time for the content to be revealed.

[Zeklo]

Interesting concept! I'd like to see where this goes!

 

[LoM2]

For the record; it should be ""Distortion" not "Distorted". Distorted is a adjective, Distortion is a noun.

As for the idea itself; I like the idea of a glitchy biome, would like to see how this develops.

Yes.

Seems like an okay idea, but you didn't cover to much.

 

[berberborscing]

Yes.

Seems like an okay idea, but you didn't cover to much.

So many alt corruption/Hallow biome ideas.

Another biome for the alt biomes mod, if it ever exists.

As for the distortion, I wonder if missingno will make a cameo appearance in this biome

 

[Miles]

Looks like its going somewhere, will keep an eye on it.

 

[neoselket]

i like it! it reminds me of the far lands, from minecraft.

 

[Meowelody]

Distorted is the name because Distortion sound too similar to Corruption. Plus, I like my biome names to sometimes make no sense because logic.

 

[Qw2]

I like it, support.
Wah, black text is hard to read...

The only reason I would be against this is because it's a third evil alt. :/

EDIT : Btw, you call your biome the Distortion in your own post

Yeah, I just noticed. That was the original name, but it changed to "The Distorted" (YES, THERE IS A "THE".)

 

[Snickerbobble]

Land of glitches? President Vanellope vanity, please.

I think you should work on the names. Corrupt Wood especially.. as there is the Corruption. And then some other things like.. Computer Ash. What's Computer Ash suppose to be?

1: Corrupt can also mean as in a corrupt file/PC /mac/whatever, so no, corrupt isn't limited to the Corruptions use.

2: No idea. I worked on this at night - I'm not that creative then. I need a new name for Computer Ash, anyways. Or maybe not, I'll see if I could fit a PC screen on the sprite... (The ash comes from the PC screen if I am able to make it, otherwise I'll name it Computer Remains.)

Try not to use black text on the dark grey background.

How about dark red instead of black?

 

[DarkWolf658]

I say support. Its nice to see a change every now and then. I like how the biome is based on viruses/hacking. Finally, us nerds get some love.

I'm a nerd myself.

 

[Meowelody]

Sorry for the bump, but I made a major update!

 

[DarkWolf658]

Still supporting and im going to try to sprite this if I can

 

[Tachytaenius]

Alright, alright.

I don't have a bloomin'... whatdchamacallit... unwanted links virus.



Anyway! I totally... think this is nice, however probably wouldn't want this in the game.

So... kind of support.

No, this will NOT give viruses of any type. This is just a corruption alt. for the game, nothing harmful for your computer, right? Except from taking all of your bytes, that is.

Still supporting and im going to try to sprite this if I can

Thanks!
