Scrolling Game Development Kit Forum

School is finally out! Sorry I lost touch for a bit, I had quite a few things going on with school. I had finished the project a few weeks ago. You can catch it here: thecaseyadams.com/beta/sgdk2

and I know its not what you want, but I do plan on working on something more fitting to the SGDK2 enviroment.

Thank you for the suggestions. Sadly in most of my work I have this boxy feel with my web work and it's hard to break that habit. I definitely like the idea of having various scrolling going on in the page. I'll have to play around a lot in the Golive program to get it just right though. I also have to incorporate the icons in SGDK2 (the rocket-ship and the paintbrush) and I'll see how it looks on the right side of the body. I am hoping to get some kind of animation going on the header/banner showing multiple types of a game that you could possibly make with SGDK. I'll try and post my progression as I go along.

Would you happen to know where a nice database of tilesets for level designs would be?

Im at school now, but when I get home I will check if your tetris clone plays funny to me.

I also have some quick questions about the Windowed vs. Fullscreen mode. When I have my game in a window my graphic all have the tiled looking effect, but when I have them in fullsccreen there is no grid atifacts anymore. Would anyone know why?

So in my project my sprite has a few states:
Walking Left
Walking Right
Jump Right
Jump Left
Stand right
Stand Left
Crouch Left
Crouch Right
Crouch Walk Left
Crouch Walk Right

As of right now I haven't added the picking up guns, but eventually I would like to get to that point. I see this big bottleneck of work coming up though. Right now my sprite is just carrying a rifle, but eventually he will be able to pick up a shotgun, pistol, etc. What would be the easiest way to go about this? The only way I know how to do this is maybe making a new sprite for each weapon carried. I also recently took a look at that fighting game remake and I saw that the foot of the guy was a separate sprite. How could I make my character be two sprites like that? Torso and legs. My torso wouldn't have animations really, but when I pick up a gun I could switch to a frame in that sprite? That way I could only have one sprite of legs, and then the top sprite with the guns. Or maybe there is an even easier way I can't see. I'm all ears.

How would I keep the sprite relatively in the center of the screen? I think this is pretty much necessary when you make a platform/jumping game. I know the scroll sprite into view, but that still lets the player get to the edge of the window, and I can't see where I want to jump to.

Very pretty picture!! How in the world do you make your tiles so nice looking? I can't quite get mine to ever line up correctly...at all.
