Reviews for "Platform Tutorial"

how do you get the software?

where do u get the software cos you never said what the software is

Kwing responds:

Even at the frontpage of Newgrounds, you see FLASH PORTAL on the left. This implies that this is MADE WITH FLASH, and is for people who ARE USING FLASH. This is Flash, which costs $700.

Nice

it was very useful to me, a "Flash noob" i liked it.

Kwing responds:

Glad you did.

I think it was good

Well i liked it (partly because i made the ememy anf the hoverboardguy. BUT i think it would be good to tell all these nice ppl how to go to another level. I applaud your efforts.

Kwing responds:

This would be on a Movie Clip, maybe a door:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){//Movie Clip handler
if(this.hitTest(_root.player)){//If the object hits the player
_root.nextFrame();//Go to the next frame
}//Terminates the function
}//Terminates the entire function

Good tutorial, but some flaws.

My biggest issue so far with the script is for some reason, I cant have more than one object with the instance name 'ground.' It will only move things inside my first ground object. Are you able to do this, or is it something Im doing wrong? I might be able to fix it by repasting the script with a different instance name, but itll be a bit inconvenient.

Another minor flaw is that sometimes my character wont come to a complete stop, which isnt game killing, but a little annoying if Im trying to make a high quality game.

Aside from that, I really like this platforming tutorial because its one of the few with actual momentum (something alot of platformers need) but its kinda hard to edit since its all in one frame. And its definitely something I have to edit a bit.

Kwing responds:

You can't have two or more Movie Clips with the same instance name; that confuses Flash. However, if you want moving parts and stuff, you can create a moving Movie Clip within the ground Movie Clip.

I'm coming up with a new platform engine right now, but it's taking ages. It'll be a bit like Hoverman Racing, but hopefully a bit better.

very nice!

very nice tutoral but the hp is don't followafter you if u in the air.

Kwing responds:
