I am encouraged to see the game you share.Tackle diffculties,and find a good method to sovle it,I am ready:)
The thing I did just like "doodle jump",followed a tutorial on youtube,intend to learn some basics as beginner.But in the tutorial the sprite is controled by keyboard，then I got problem when set control by touch.
used some assets from "pixel adventure",and drew the a pixel character animation/background by myself（familliar ground as animation designer :P）
Now I am planning test a mechanic new.Probably there will be lots of problems,then I come back here,lol.
Yes,once I created someting,I will post it to Facebook group.
