To get feedback we need a video at least to see the progress.

You have a link to the most current game - why not give it a try.

It's better than a video... (i will create teaser, ... with the completed new asset)

SUPER Build & Play*1 is a platformer editor/game in one - like SUPER MARIO MAKER(r).

The game status is beta and i want to post the process finishing the game.

You are all invited to help make the game better.

Build a game and publish it and play the level from other players.

With the next step i will replace the current placeholder sprites with an asset that is growing from now on.

You can follow the progress if you are interrested - i will post changes and publish the most current version until the game gets published.

ingame control: arrow keys/wasd, space(shoot), ctrl (place dynamite)

how else load a complete animation set to a sprite from an url?

just another workarround,,,

Changing such basic engine logic would "kill" many existing projects.

My oppinion:

In general you can't get enough feedback for a game (concept, art, ...)

In detail...

it it's a free game (not sold) then as early as possible (already the game concept).

if it's a game you want to sell there is always a chance other will copy your idea (if it's worth it).

...so discuss with friends you trust

...if it's a bigger sized project request feedback with a stable (late beta) status (so you can finish it before other can do ) - but do a dynamic game design to be able to change/implement new good ideas even in beta status.

no (if you own a legal license of the asset)

Problem Description

a tilemap (with platform behavior) don't collides with other tilemaps (behavior=solid)

Attach a Capx

http://www.gameus.de/tilemap_platformer/tilemap_platformer.capx

Description of Capx

There are two characters with platform behavior (red is a sprite, blue is a tilemap) standing on a solid sprite (so far ok)

If you move the characters down to the tilemap grid the sprite works fine, the tilemap"platformer" falls through.

Observed Result

a tilemap with platform behavior falls through solid tilemaps

Expected Result

a tilemap with platform behavior works like a sprite with platform behavior

please help - i need this!

Great (Even with sources)

Thank you!

Nice!

Simple and clever idea.

(+1 for the background music)

Here is a Photoshop spritefont template (PSD format).

You need CS3 or better to open.

This is the 16x16 version: http://www.gameus.de/c2/spritefont16.psd

This is the 32x32 version: http://www.gameus.de/c2/spritefont32.psd

(but you can change size you need)

To change the color or the font just select all text objects and change the style (color, font, opacity, ...)

To change the effects change one and copy the effect to all other.

A nice font page is dafont (http://www.dafont.com) (most are free for private or commercial use)

Probably some special fonts needs adjustments in the template!

Thank you.

But the rude and naive way the steam community judged this free game moved me to remove it from steam.

Why make a present for such a group?

(i lose nothing if they don't play the game)
