Untitled Jumper platformer

Hope to finish one game on this week.
Already implemented

  • 70% level generation - logics and configs
  • 90% character controller (based on tile map position, without box2d)

And just today received some animations and found that my character is actually 3d cylinder =)

Game looks cool!

Those tilemaps are huge! I wonder if there is any performance degradation on mobile when using such a large one?

I think it could be. but not on the new device where draw call is not critical
because of this big map I have plus 340 draw call

Just posted the game to the itch.io game jam
http://nicloay.itch.io/climbjumper
it contains new parallax graphics and character color scheme change

main job is still in progress,

Why mouse click to place block? Seems you can’t quickly toggle a block? Could be e key instead? Need an indicator of placement direction too it seems to be the last direction you turned to including down?

thanks for feedback. and bug reporting - i’ll fix this.

I agree about indicator. Just don’t have enough time to finish the game to the end of the jam. so released a very raw version. Originally i have left and right mouse button to take and place the block. but right now rebuilding this and with indicator i think it will works ok.

Your animations looks pretty. I also have several sequences, but it’s hard for me to make them works in most of cases, because characters jump a lot and fast. so need to make a perfect and precise timing, so it will works for cases when player quickly goes down on stairs. i think later i’ll come back to this task.
