Please read my lengthy answer on this topic here: Beginner question about Collisions - #4 by britzl

An example of how to resolve the collisions in a top-down game can be seen here in my LD 37 entry:

oneroom/player.script

master


      
          	if state == RUN then
          		if self.state ~= RUN then
          			self.state = RUN
          			msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", { id = hash("player_run") })
          		end
          	elseif state == IDLE then
          		if self.state ~= IDLE then
          			self.state = IDLE
          			msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", { id = hash("player_idle") })
          		end
