This is the first step! Aiming: arrow keys Lateral Movement: left and right arrow keys Actions: down arrow key Jump: Z Shoot: X Switch gun: S To Work On: Make First Cave Map. The door... Fireball gun. Update log - v0.0.5: Machine gun!!! hold x to shoot repeatedly. Hud improved. This is more like it! v0.0.4: Polar star!!! Bullets made bigger because they are hard to see. v0.0.3: Got rid of the shakes! :D Also added more water effects. A few minor tweaks here and there as well, such as adding the scrolling to the effects. Pretty soon, I'll be able to label the engine a version 0.1... XD v0.0.2: Less basic game mechanics. Added Cave Story's special scrolling, and some particle effects for the water. Also made everything the proper size. Seems to have a bad case of the shakes... v0.0.1: Basic platforming mechanics.
Big thanks to Doylex2!!! Feel free to put ideas down in the comments! Update name: "Geothermal"
