Developers Corner: BrickPlanet Events!
Ever wondered what the process is like to create events? How we brainstorm ideas or how we make our ideas come to reality? Well today we will be interviewing Cardboard, The man behind the awesome builds, ideas and creativity of our festive and spooky events!
Q1: When in the process of building the Christmas/Halloween Events, How did you manage to find inspiration for your builds and what inspired you?
A1: Honestly, when building the Halloween and Christmas event maps, the hardest part for me, and something i still struggle with is, I can't fully see an end goal. I just build tiny parts every day until eventually the days of tiny parts add up into one big whole. I got inspiration to build the little house at the start, and then i started building tiny things like pumpkins, candy, gravestones, fences, and more.
Eventually, it all became one huge thing after enough small additions. Even if this process can get discouraging, as I can never imagine what a finished map could look like, the community's overwhelmingly kind response to what I've made is so amazing, and it really motivates me more than anything to keep going.
For the Christmas map, I actually didn't think I was going to make anything. I spent a few days building a little log cabin for fun, and then realized I could put it into a snowglobe. Then, I surrounded it with little details like an igloo, a guitar, and more. Eventually, I realized it could be a really cool map to celebrate Christmas!
Q2: How accesible and reliable would you say the workshop is for creating and innovating and is it beginner friendly?
A2: The workshop is really reliable for one huge reason. InsDel, the developer, constantly has open ears and is always listening to feedback and adjusting QUICKLY. He is always adding features to raise the accessibility level like the recent addition of collision detection in building, and he is so kind as to talk to you directly in the discord server to help you with any issues you map have. Building just like anything, takes practice.
Q3: Do you have any upcoming game ideas or updates?
Unfortunately, I don't have any BrickPlanet updates currently. I just started my spring semester at college, and it's been extremely busy. I've also sadly had some unknown issues with my laptop, that runs my detailed games on BrickPlanet pretty poorly, I'm pretty sure it's a storage thing, so I need to get on that quickly! I hope to build something when I'm not so busy and overwhelmed :)
Thank you so much to Cardboard for his contribution to BrickPlanet and his kind words, hopefully we see more amazing things from you soon when your laptop is fixed.
