Game
GUIDANCE



4 months ago

Made a script for jumping across small gaps that can be reused and replaced easily. Should be pixel movement friendly as well! ^.^

Uses Yanfly's Moveroute core #WIPWednesday


All you need is two events. One is a blank event called "jump to" which you move from the actual jump interaction event.

Unfortunately Moveroute core doesn't allow for you to input variables for coordinates in it's Jump To command, but I managed to workaround this my placing an event instead (which you CAN set to coordinates according to variables) so it all works out in the end. ^.^

Now, you might be wondering "for small distances, why not just use a normal jump command?" I'm glad you asked.

As some of you may know, GUIDANCE uses pixel movement, in particular I use a plugin called Altimit. The problem is, if you aren't lined up right, the regular jump command will get you stuck in places you aren't supposed to be.

That sucks.

Pulled my hair out for a long time trying to figure out how to make that work, and I think I've finally perfected it!

This same script can be copy pasted anywhere with no alteration (except when moving to a new map to make sure the Jump To event is still event 11, and if not, to change what event the command targets)

And that's it!

The only way I could make this cleaner (that I can think of) would be if I could input the Jump To coordinates with variables directly, instead of moving an event to those coordinates and then targeting the event.

But like- this is more than good enough! ^.^

And that puts to rest a demon in this game that's been tormenting me for the past 2+ years :)

So how was your day?

EDIT:

Made a much cleaner version lol

Just a bit less repeated code where it doesn't need to be, since it turns the exact same script either way.

Damn this song goes well with UltraKill (Cybergrind)

Just got into this game and absolutely loving it! If you wanna see how the rest of this run ended lemme know.

I start to fall off near the end here, but I picked it back up.

Burned? Weakened? Dazed? Bleeding? A band-aid should do the trick!

I really pushed my boundaries with the piece, and I'm really proud of it! I hope you like it too!

I think "Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is by far my favorite Christmas song.

Aside from the music simply being more emotional than most, it has a really strong atmosphere compared to other Christmas songs.

@Miles_Games is a Jolter to Watch! They post great game dev updates about the holiday-themed platformer TEAM SLAY-BELLS! Follow them before the quest ends on December 24 and you'll get Coins!

I finally made GUIDANCE's trees not look like wooden panels
