Introducing my level editing tool LC123. Coming soon, but first we need a website to show it off. At the very least you can wonder about coding a map reader before you get your hands on this powerful toy.


MMF 2D Mapfiles: map files are an ini file with a .map file extention. The format is x_y_LayerNumber=TileX,TileY within a [MapX] group for multiple maps in one file.

The editor features 5 layers with 3 tilesheets. Layer 1 2 and 3 are background tiles. Layer 4 is Objects and layer 5 is hexadecimal numbers. An additional map group called [MapX_markers] contains the format x_y_=stringdata for custom text inside any grid space.

Collisions and animated backgrounds are supported, and a tile splitter is included. There are numerous options in each [mapX_options] group, and you can use presets.

Here is a list of default options (although you can add custom variables):

x1=0

y1=0

x2=100

y2=100

name=areaname

background=image.png

music=song.mid

tiles=backgrounds.png

objects=items.png

hex=datatable.png

tiles_x=8

objects_x=4

hex_x=16

tiles_y=8

objects_y=4

hex_y=16

tiles_anim_qty=4

tiles_anim_spd=100

fresh=1 // used by the editor

"Our work is never over" they said.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Alone Together....

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.

blender animation experimentation, getting the hang of things fast. arms, rig, & gun models by me ofc

A sneak peek at the new OST, can you guess what this song will be used for? 🤔
