btw i love that the only difference between those enormous if blocks is what kind of object ur spawning lol

i had to use scratch for a class recently and it has a hilarious amount of limitations and wack concepts

No Programming Required!

Also this is still more or less how all the RPG editors work.

sounds fun. i made something in construct 2 not long ago as well and its similarly convoluted to do trivial shit like increment variables lol

Mastered... (I mostly only lost significant time dying near the end of Level 5.)



Oh yeah, and regarding what you mentioned on Twitter: my approach in ATGH and Loverinth is to only ever actually move things in integers. (This is necessary to avoid going "between" zoomed pixels in Unity, but it's nice in general.) However, speed can still use decimal values by adding the decimal portion to floats called "excessX/excessY." When those go over 1, it subtracts 1 and adds it to the "active hspeed/vspeed" for that frame, letting you move an extra pixel. So those basically act as subpixel trackers. It may be a little bit of work, but you can probably put most of it in a generic script for things to use.

nice..... was that your first run? if not do u remember the time/deaths for your first run? trying to get some data on how hard the physics are 2 get used to

i actually ended up switching to only using integers for movement & it was less annoying than i thought, i just have a "number of subpixels" variable (set to 10 for this game) that i multiply all the physics/movement constants by in the create event, alternate x/y variables that track subpixels, & versions of place_free/place_meeting that work with subpixels..... then i replaced everything in my code with the subpixel versions and it kinda just worked

Nah, my first run was like 22 deaths. Mostly due to Level 2 being kind of a gauntlet, and the first jump in Level 5, and I think I walked into a spike a few times because I was still holding right from the previous stage.

thanxs its very useful to know which jumps/levels people had trouble with..... would u say stage 2 was one of the harder ones? i figured it wouldnt be that bad since the timing for jumping through the gates is very lenient, i think 3 & 5 are the hardest

btw i just got a deathless run.... my time was 117s (i didnt go for the skip on the first level tho)
