Description This isn't finished... and I'll be moving it to my scraps later. It's merely a game engine without much more than basics (or perhaps only basics), with crappy graphics to emphasize that fact (yes... the finished product will look a lot better )

Controls: WASD or arrow keys (left and right to move, up to jump). Top left corner shows health and coins collected.

Only reason I'm posting this is to show the people who want to know, the progress I've made. I won't be posting any more until it's completely finished; or, if I manage another type of basic engine.

I know it's got problems... I don't much like the collision (the enemies can hurt you a full tile away, so keep that in mind), and there is no method yet to defeat any of the enemies. And, it's only one tiny level (at least it's small enough not to need a preloader lol)

Not sure what else to say on it... I'm hoping to get the game completed in 2 weeks to a month. If you do manage to find any bugs, please let me know so I can get them fixed for the final version.

Thanks I've improved it somewhat since I submitted this, but I can't really post an update since it's a bit too far into the project. I've made better stuff than this, but Flash is hard to work with, and I can find almost no tutorials online for creating games

If you ARE interested in making games, a good place to start is GameMaker; has a user friendly interface, as well as lots of tutorials for basic games

Heh, thanks Try different things... it's too short to test much I'm sure, but I found a collision bug by accident. Sadly, it's not something I can really fix because it happens so rarely (I wasn't able to duplicate it) I don't know what the cause is. Still... it's not that bad, and doesn't seem to hinder the player any. Chances are I'll have more bugs the more I add though, so I may actually have to have a few people test it again before I post it (I don't want to publish something full of bugs lol). So anyway, thanks. I'll keep ya posted
