  • Hi guys, wondering if anyone can help me with a graphics problem that has plagued my project for years. My pixel art seems to display with inconsistent pixel widths - sprites with animation seem to have pixels that change thickness constantly. All of the lines in this image are supposed to be 1 pixel width, but some of them are thick and some are thin:

    I suspect it's something to do with sub-pixels but pixel rounding and Point sampling are on in my project and everything is positioned at integer coordinates. So, um... I'm stuck! Anyone fixed this issue before?

    Thanks

  • Dang, your pixel skills are really coming on.

    I have to ask, what do you use to make your gifs? I've tried a number of solutions and have yet to find anything that comes out the way I want.

  • Close all background apps?

    Ah! That did it. Turns out Esc doesn't work if Photoshop is open at the same time?? Apparently this is a known issue with Photoshop: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/20226/ho ... n-windows/

    Problem solved! Thanks guys <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

  • Here's a very simple capx. When you press Esc, the square should turn red. It doesn't work for me, but it does if I change the event to any other key press. Tested in nw.js, Chrome, and Firefox. http://mikelaraman.com/misc/esc.capx

  • Guys, I'm having a problem with C2 that's got me stumped. All I want to do is have it so that when a player presses Esc, they are taken back to the game's title screen; but nothing I do works. If I change the particular key to anything else the code works just fine - C2 seems to just not want to recognise Esc key presses. Thinking I must've messed something up in my code elsewhere, I made a new C2 project and tested, and I still can't get the Esc key to work or do anything. So I thought, maybe my Esc key is just broken? Nope, I can esc out of Youtube videos just fine.

    Weird thing is I did a forum search and I can't find any other reference to this problem. Am I going insane? Am I missing something? C2 simply does not want to register Esc keypresses. (I've tried doing it via the relevant keycode, before anyone asks. Still no dice).

    Anybody able to help?

  • I love it! Great concept, great graphics, simple to pick up!

    If I had to make a suggestion for improvement I'd perhaps say that the music becomes repetitive quite quickly and that held me back from really playing it obsessively But really you did a great job with this!

  • Hey, good job! I really like the animations, the knights' movements are really well done Did you use Spriter or something?

    Gameplay wise it could perhaps use more of a skill element - once both knights have used their 2 magics and 2 heals then it's just a case of bashing the attack button over and over and hoping the damage:dodge ratio works out in your favour :p

  • I like it! I like the idea for the different rounds, Gravity Flip is fun

    I'm getting bad lag too, in the UK :/ Sometimes the game eats jump input as well, esp. on double jumps, making some of the high platforms occasionally impossible. I assume this is lag-related...

    EDIT: Also I'm sure that sometimes when the game spawns a really low platform followed by a really high platform the jump becomes impossible, even with double-jump.
