A pc JSW with the original quirks intact and any new features you are
adding.
Any Ideas on that front or are you going for the straight conversion ?
On a different note, I have been continuing work on my pc game.
I have added a few new bits and ironed out a few anoying bugs ( like
the falling through the floor ).
It became kinda anpying when I kept falling to my death :)
I was thinking of making it a kind of JSW/MM hybrid.
Keep the large scrolling area theme but make it 5 or 6 large areas.
Once you get all of the objects in one, the next area opens up or I
suppose I could make it easy to move between large areas.
It is just that one, super area ,if you like would cause a lot of
problems with sprites moving off their axis etc.....
Who knows.
Will post another demo soon.
Got lifts working and ramps coming off of other ramps.
Example.
A left ramp coming off half way up a right ramp.
Works quite well too.
I have also put in my first pixel perfect jump :)
