About Developer:

Pixel Blacksmith is created and maintained by Jake Lee, a software engineer from England. If you've encountered a bug, or have an idea for a new feature, please mention it in a review or on https://reddit.com/r/PixelBlacksmith and I'll reply ASAP. I don't bite!

Codebase notes

  • The app uses the long-dead SugarORM in DatabaseHelper.java.
  • The app contains most code in each screen's activity, with additional functionality added via "Helper" classes.
  • DisplayHelper.java, VisitorHelper.java, and WorkerHelper.java are horrendously complex classes that contain most of the logic!

Licensing

  • Entire repository is under the MIT license, essentially do whatever you want but don't blame me if it breaks!
  • Redacted images are licensed from long forgotten sources, unfortunately!
  • All unredacted images are modified versions of Kenney assets.
