Movement

1. Movement

1.1 Over-world and Battle Movement

You can move your character using the WASD keys. The movement will be 8-directional, where each direction moves you the same speed. To move diagonally you would press 2 keys (any combination of W, A, S, or D) and to move in a straight line you press only one key (W, A, S, D).

1.1.1 Obstacles

Solid Objects - There will be various objects of every shape. The engine should be able to handle pixel perfect collisions.

Water – You cannot swim or walk on or through water.

1.1.2 Objects

Jump Down Blocks – You can jump down from certain cliffs and ledges that are 2 grid spaces or less. You cannot move back up these blocks.

Ladders – You can climb up certain objects (ladders, vines, etc) to get up on ledges.

 

We are not sure about mud or ice yet. (Mud makes you slower, Ice makes you have less friction) We cannot think of a reason that they would make the game more fun, instead of being just plain objects. SO if you have any idea let me know :)

  1. Mud or ice might be interesting if you could lure enemies onto it.

  2. That sounds like a good reason for mud. Thanks ninjutsu, that will probably make it in the game.
