Good JetPack Tutorial? 2010-05-07 20:40:07 Reply

Hey everyone! I hope you're having a great day :)

Anyways...

I'm still learning AS2 and I was wondering, can anyone point out a tutorial on how to make a jetpack game? I want to make a game where you can walk on the ground and then press whatever key to fly up into the air.

Are their any decent tutorials for that kind of thing to happen?

That's quite a specific thing you want. I have never seen a Jet Pack game, can you post an example? I might just make you a quick tutorial and a source FLA for u

I know I've done something like this in the past, and found some help, then eventually made it into something.Heres the .FLAof what I made, it contains the code and some extra frills like a Vcam to track the movement of the jetpack, and walls to keep it inside certain boundries

It doesn't need a tutorial. If you understand how to make a normal platformer then this would be easy. Just have your character increase at a certain speed upward when he hits up, rather than increase it once as you would if the character jumps.
