I'm making a flash game similar to super smash bros and I was wondering if I should use box2d or just make the physics myself.

Well if you want complex physics (beyond any ssmb game) then you should use it. For basic gravity I don't suggest it.


If ya have something to say, PM me. I have a lot of time to spare.

Also never PM egg82.

Actually if you are proficient enough with the engine, it does makes a lot of sense to use it for a platformer. It allows you to focus in the gameplay aspect of the game.
I'm developing a game that uses box2d as its physics engine and so far is just awesome.

Well I decided to make my own physics and its much easier than I thought. It's turning out very well.

This is a five year old thread. Please don't bump them with useless replies.
