I'd be up for doing a tutorial. I have to get everything working the way I want it first. I only have about half of the lighting effects working in the game engine right now. I should probably focus on a playable demo, then I can break down how I did specific things.

Pretty cool. I have actually thought about putting my design portfolio online using C2. I could do a lot more a lot quicker than just scripting straight HTML5.

rekjl,

I already built a prototype engine. I could probably make a functional game from it right now, but I wanted to incorporate the lighting effects and generally improve the look. Now I'm working on a rewrite to work the new stuff in and cleanup old, unused events. I have some of the lighting already working in the old engine. It's not too difficult, you just have to think creatively to get it to work properly. Once I've got posting privileges and a little free time, I'll put up a tutorial on some of the effects.

Pretty cool. I'm on the fence as to whether to use procedural generation or create good old fashioned platformer levels in the game I'm working on. I don't have any digging, just a lot of shooting and jumping so I'll probably go with the latter. Something like this might be fun to try in the future, though.

Definitely gotta read this. Posting so I can find it later.

I started out wanting to use C2 to create a simple game engine. I'm a designer, not a programmer and I find C2 to be intuitive and the logic easy to understand. I began creating my game engine for a Metroidvania style RPG and it quickly took on a life of its own. I'm now re-writing the engine, adding features and redoing the test graphics I created. It's blossoming into a full game.

Current features:

• Simulated lighting effects
• Variable Gravity
• Item Pickups
• NPC Dialogue
• Assorted items and weapons
• Jet boots
• Contextual zooming
• Spriter animated boss enemies (1 so far)
• Other stuff that I'm forgetting
