Topic Poll ($5+)
Added 2018-03-12 12:57:25 +0000 UTCIt's that time again!
I've kept the more popular options from before, and I know by now lots of you are happy just to see the platformer continue so I will keep doing that at a 1:1 pace with these videos.
Two new options:
- Wall jumps that give you forced momentum and how to reconcile that with player control. In other words, jumping away from a wall consistently rather than being able to simply climb a wall upwards.
- Some general advice and tips on what has worked for me in Ludum Dare game jams in terms of coming up with ideas, planning, development, the problems you'll naturally run into and how to deal with them.
Keep an eye out for my weekly update that will be coming shortly after this poll for info on what's coming this week.

Hi Shaun! love your work. I know you already have made an inventory video, but will we see an inventory with equipable items (like guns) or just a GRID inventory with stackable item? (like Diablo) trying to make my own with no luck :/
2018-03-15 01:24:16 +0000 UTCThe issue with this is there aren't a lot of methods I can think of for this that are both generalistic and straightforward (much like the whole slopes stuff). Typically this means that your method should be specific to the needs and style of your game, but when I do those kinds of things you get lots of people who want it to behave differently or suit a different sort of game. if I think of a way to deliver this well then I'll add it to the list
