Press Q to revive them. Arrow keys to move Z to Jump X to Attack C to Throw a shuriken -or- WASD to move L to Jump K to attack J to Throw a shuriken --------------------------------Details-------------------------------- I want to say that I am very proud of this project, it really is something phenomenal, it's just that it has one extremely huge oversight that led to this project being less of a labor of love, and more of a point of anxiety and stress. That oversight is: Scope. Scope is the concept of how big a project can be and how big it should be. In this case, I waaaay overshot on scope, because I am one person and I cannot make a game of the size I wanted this project to be. what you see before you is the work of two years (not years time, mind you, but probably about 100+ hours of work) -------------------What I wanted for this project--------------- ( how long something took to make is listed to the right of the idea. There is an "X" next to all of the things that are unfinished, and thus, I did not list a time for how long it took. ) I wanted a player character that can: - Double Jump, move, wall jump. ( 1 hour ) - Animating the above ( 6 hours ) - Attack in all directions with a sword and shuriken ( 1 hour ) - Animating the above ( 6 hours ) X - Roll - Sound effects for all of the above ( 1 hour ) I wanted levels with-------------------------------- X - A story X - Stealth level, parkour level, and a boss level X - I wanted levels that are extremely decorated, with six layers of parallax backgrounds. ( 24 hours per level ) - Tutorial level ( 24 hours ) X - Original Soundtrack for each level I wanted enemies with------------------- - Intelligent A.I. ( 2 hours ) - A Shriek phase ( 1 hour ) - A running phase ( 1 hour ) - An attack phase ( 1 hour ) - Animating all of the above ( 10 hours ) X - Sounds for all of the above X - Debugging all of the above ( + 9999999 hours ) (Jk, but debugging still takes ages... -.- ) Also, the player alone has like, over 250 costumes, there has to be over 2000 block of code in this project, the player has like, 50 variables, and there are probably over 100 vector shapes in the menu backdrop and tutorial level, so... -------------------------------Aftermath----------------------------- As you can see, what I have done already is already a lot of work; let alone making everything listed above. That being said, though, what did come out of this project looks extremely professional, and I think I could have been great; I just think the time invested would not of been worth it. -----------------------------Final Thoughts------------------------ Do I regret all of the time I put into this? No. This project was a fantastic learning experience, and a lesson in scope. I wanted to release this because I felt like It would be a crime not to. But, the biggest reason I released this project is because I wasn't letting myself make any other project until I finished this one, it stressed me out, and I didn;t want to make it anymore, it felt more like a job than an act of love and passion. I want to move on to other ideas, and make things out of love. So here it is. Purple ninja. (at least, what I have of it.) Thanks for reading, by the way, means a lot to me. ^ ^ Have a penguino.
