Sorry about the frequent bugs (they can be fixed with restarts, but restarting every minute is very annoying). I'll see if I can get a v2 up later.

Bugs squashed. Play v2 if you don't want to have to restart the game every other minute.

This is the best game ever. I didn't see that this is a multiplayer game. You can chat with the creator in the game!

It's a good project :D A love this sort of game !

This is amazing! I hope you get my note

i didn't understand what to do, but i love the very retro style :D

Very cool! This is a good take on the theme and I had fun adding to the world; I hope others do too.

I had hoped for some kind of interaction other than a huge canvas. But I wish there were more games like this one. :)

LOTS of bugs in the compo version!

I really love these multiplayer world building games! I found the controls a little annoying (kept pressing right click by instinct from paint programs :p) but it's a damn cool idea :D

I love this idea. It's awesome.

I wish you could edit multiple tiles at once though.

I also shamefully destroyed some text in the welcome box :P

Great idea, though the theme was minimalism it would be nice if there was something more to do, not sure what though exactly...

Nice game, well done! :D

I've updated the post-LD version to v4.

CHANGELOG:
-ADDED: You can now copy the tile at your cursor by pressing C.
-ADDED: You can now paste at your cursor by pressing V.
-ADDED: You can now change the color of the tile at your cursor by pressing B.

Simply put, copying/pasting is now tons faster.

I loved this game 5 stars for everything but audio, humor and mood.

It's amazing how the users make this game. I found a whole world here.

Really cool game.

Sadly the game just crashes when I try to start it (without any special error message). :( (Win XP, 32-bit laptop here)

@SuperlevelSebastian
Do you have .NET Framework 4 and XNA 4 installed? The installers for them are included in the first link. Otherwise, it might be a case of your computer not meeting the minimum requirements for XNA (it just crashing instead of notifying the player when that happens is my fault), as XNA just refuses to run on machines without the proper specs (it's especially picky about video cards; an XP32 laptop's built-in video card is likely not good enough for XNA).

sadly this entry wont win -- but it probably should -- you have done something really brilliant here!
