WAD or arrow keys to move 4 test levels (1 available in game) 5 hours 29 assets Please use with credit This is kinda my first trash post, I guess? How it works: I wanted to really sell the illusion of the player moving through space, so I decided to make my own engine where the player is actually moving on-screen. I couldn’t just make the character the same way, and I don’t remember how to do that well anyways, so the best way that I could come up with is to make a scrolling platform engine with a hitbox at (0,0), then make a visual level and character over it that moves according to x and y speeds. The y changes look cool until you hit the ground, when they jerk back to 0, so I removed that to make a smoother test for you guys.
Updates: 11/20/21: Added crouching (maybe for dynamic dangers like swinging saws?). 11/27/21: Made the player smaller and camera effects smaller. 12/21/21: Adjusted the crouch feature for easier use.
