Wow you found a spelling mistake... I don't even bother to look for them in your posts.

[quote:1o5yx6vg]now get serious and dont be on my language ?
Well if we don't understand what you want your language IS a problem. Cause we won't be able to reply.

[quote:jw0qxmb3]and i know this one is hard to understand ..
because u guys can have some weird way of thinkin about urself as programmer of the game

and there is a lot of resistance ...

makin me the intruder of the family ..

hahaha .. like i care : )

no offense

sarcasme is a healty state of mind

Some weird attitude you have...

The point is that your english is too bad. At least I can't understand what you're all about. Did you write all that in another language and auto-translated it with babelfish or something similiar?

I'm not even convinced the whole stuff you wrote is meant to be serious, may pretty well be some joke...

[quote:x4b0sez2]The jumping seems a little too linear. Like an inverted V, it's pointy on top
[quote:x4b0sez2]You should tweak the jumping a bit, it looks too rigid.
Yes it's still a little... well like you guys said, too pointy on top. When the jump force reaches 0 the character immediately drops, it should probably last a bit there.

[quote:x4b0sez2]I think it's just the expression on her face, but the girl kinda looks like a mean old man in awig. It's the heavy brow and small eyes.
Okay that made me laugh again

Old man in a wig, haha. Classic!

Obviously I'm not getting the same impression looking at her and actually those pixels are not supposed to be brows (but it may pretty well be you're right). All I can say is that it's NOT supposed to be the average cute little girl, fitting the overall mood of game (which isn't really there yet). "Old wig man" will be considered as final title for the game though.

[quote:x4b0sez2]About the jump animation, is, is that there is no animation of her jumping; she is simply lifted dangling into the air
Animations are still at a minimum. So more/better animations should be there in the process. In fact all graphics are work in progress (like all game content).

Thanks for the comments so far, all critique was constructive and helpful.

Nobody mentioned the jump height yet. So I guess it's the same for everyone?!

Agreed. It's too slow. Should have adjusted more after changing the whole thing. I guess it has nothing to do with your computer... (if the walking isn't kind of slow for you as well)

EDIT: Okay, tweaked the jumping back to normal, I guess:

I was wondering if the jumping height was the same for everyone. You should be able to jump about the height of two 32x32 blocks, like shown on the pic.

Here's the same (well slightly changed) example without TimeDelta. If this runs apparently too slow/fast on your computer please post your specs.

This should have less glitches than the TimeDelta version, it shares the some probs with the moving platform though. I have some bad events there that need to be changed

Okay, there you go:

I'm working on a Jump'n'Run game with the working title �Living Life Afraid�. It's about a little girl in a pyjama. There may be details on the background story later.

Anyway, it'll be a smallish game containing 3 � 5 Levels.

So far I've done a rather simple J'n'R engine in Construct. I didn't use the platform behavior. It's a custom movement with detectors and it's using TimeDelta as well.

That's also where the problem is... I don't seem to be able to get it working completely glitch-free with TimeDelta.

Sometimes you get stuck, but you should be always able to jump your way out of it

But that's a reason for me to go back to the X/Y +/- 1 engine style (without TimeDelta) and put it in the same example, so it'll be comparable.

So this release is nothing exciting so far, you can just jump around in a small area. The graphics are partly taken from older abandoned projects of mine and may not represent the final look of the game.

Let me know what you think about this small test version and tell me about glitches/bugs of course.

Ah, I forgot: use arrow keys to move, shift to jump (hold to jump higher). That's all

Destroying stuff is always fun. Gimme rocket launchers

But I was wondering, even when there are still cars on screen you can already click on "next round". So it is possible to have more and more cars coming at you. Is this intentional?

It seems there are some problems with 0.94.

When I try to edit animations I can't see the hotspots/image points anymore.

And I noticed when I toggle on the grid in the layout editor the dots don't show anymore.

Can anyone confirm this?

Wow, 0.94 seems to be an outstanding release.

Great work Ashley!

Btw "OPT" may mean "optimized"

Great Doppel, this appears to work!

But when I open your example it's set to fixed framerate of 44. With that setting it doesn't work for me. Needs to be changed to v-synced or unlimited frames and it does the job like a charm

Thx man!

The basics of my engine and some graphics, including the player sprite, were already done when I noticed the bug by accident.

Of course it's much more obvious when you look at the little example I cooked up for this thread.

You're right, it's not a gamebreaking bug or anything... would be very cool though if this was fixed in future versions.

And thx to everybody contributing to this
