Cool! I'm even more full of anticipation! :D

Wow, this really cool. Just wondering but did Builderboy's Sonic test from a long time ago stir the physics idea part of this at all? (It's somewhere in this subforum somewhere :P I can look later.) But really, as they have said before me, you underestimate yourself greatly! One of those screen shots later in this topic made the level look embossed (or 3D if you will) sometimes. Very cool. Can't wait to see how this turns out! ;D

Edit: I forgot to mention that an idea for an obstacle could be like a "acid" or "spike" tile that makes you lose also if you hit it. Just a thought :)

I apologize for not reading over the entire thread before responding; so I'm not sure if this has already been suggested...

This reminds me a lot of the Bonus Stage from Sonic the Hedgehog. (the first one on Genesis) A really cool idea might be to base an entire game around this, using similar sprites and tiles. The objective could be to collect the Chaos Emerald from each level, while getting a bonus for rings.

OMG! You're right, it does look like that. Only difference is that this looks more like a tunnel instead of a different shapes. I kind of like that idea. Might be hard to implement though.

Yeah now that you mention it...

my concern would be the rotation, though. I would rather prefer to let this out. For the sequel to that game, I think it might be an idea to make such game, though, or something similar.

Ya, rotation would be pretty hard to accomplish.

Currently progress is slow, but I have a week of vacation coming soon, so I should probably be able to finish some more levels and hopefully find a title screen idea.

the sonic thing could be made a little easier if you just used all circular tiles so you wouldnt have to rotate them as well. i can see that being doable, though still tough. great to hear you're working more soon, im excite for this =D

Yeah I would need to learn 3D and rotating stuff, which I failed on so far. Plus in math classes we did not do much trig, which is essential.

As for the game I'll definitively have to put all my sprites visually in a document or sheet of paper alongwith the respective hex, because it's really annoying to remember what are each sprites (I have trouble reading hex fast)

Yeah reading Hex is a pain x.x And rotation would be so crazy with not only the rotational graphics, but the crazy physics you would need O.O I think its awesome enough :)

DJ, this is an amazing game.  I hope you find the motivation to finish it! ;D
