What is 2.5d?

It's kinda like this:



I'm going to try to make it a little more- "exciting" than the original.

Also:

+ mp3 remixes of all the original midi's

+ save & loading

+ the game will be more difficult

+ possibly a boss rush

+ more playable characters

+ better graphics (my opinion)

+ a fork in the road
release date is unknown at this point.

Done!

Sorry, The site I posted it on only runs it once. Any sites that loops the animation?

I've decided not to use an animation for it would be too complecated for me >_<

What? No it's easy! I know how to do it!
this:
left: sprite change
speed = 1
sprite = left_walk
sub image = -1

left release: sprite change
speed = 0
sprite = left_walk
sub image = 0

()
same thing with right sept different sprite

thats what you'd use on a non-platform type game

Platform games without animation are really dodgy, here is a basic animation script that I used in poorly drawn man.

In step event:

if !(place_meeting(x,y+1,obj_floor))
{
if vspeed <= 0
{
sprite_index = //jump sprite
}
if vspeed >= 0
{
sprite_index = //fall sprite
}
}

if ((place_meeting(x,y+1,obj_floor)) and !(keyboard_check(vk_right)) and !(keyboard_check(vk_left)))
{
sprite_index = //standing sprite
}

if keyboard_check_pressed(vk_right)
{
sprite_index = //running sprite
image_xscale = 1
}

if keyboard_check_pressed(vk_left)
{
sprite_index = //running sprite
image_xscale = -1
}

Make the origin of all player sprites have the x axis in the middle of the sprite. Use a mask.

hmmm thanks
