Awesome! flip around going batshit jumping over spiders and bats and a dragon. I love all the glitches like when you get stuck under the lift. Cool parallax effect too.

if you jump over the dragons head then jump at the drawbridge at speed you do like a glitchy jump through the window. i thought it looked funny
I gave it three stars because for a first attempt its not bad, the mechanics are sound and the movements fluid. you managed to get a working health bar and point scoring as well as a neat little lever and door animation. As others have said though the collision detection on the arrow thing is a bit dodgy and the respawn glitches if you fall off a platform. these kind of games are good practice for people learning flash and I expect when you refine your art style and add some nice animations and audio you could have a pretty solid platformer. well done keep it up
Thanks for the feedback! :)
The code for the platform works very well, you can create platforms of any shape and the collision still works which has saved me a lot of time as i was writing separate code for each wall, surface etc..
Some of the code is irrelevant tho, for instance the waterspeed variable didnt seem to serve any purpose but i just removed those bits and it still works fine.
I couldnt get the coin to work but i have my own way that works well with your code so that was fine.
i would definitely recommend this code for beginners as it is a lot simpler than a lot of the other tutorials floating about.
im not exactly a novice but this has helped me out a lot and the presentation is also very good.
Yeah, I copied and pasted the code from a previous failed game I was trying to make. The frames basically "collapsed" in the project so I had to start all over and I decided not too. I was going to add a water section to this tutorial but I just didn't come around to it. There is going to be a sequel though, Mario Platformer Tutorial. This will include jumping on enemies, going down into pipes, and water variables.
SORTED ME OUT!
MATE YOU ARE A LEGEND!!! THE BULLET COLLISION WAS EXACTLY WHAT IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR.
awesome, easy to follow and it actually works.
Excellent. Glad to help. :)
