Mechanic Sandbox

Create your platformer/8direction game effortlessly by focusing on adding content instead of the same basic shenanigans -- I already did it for you so you don't have to!

INTRO

This is Platformer/TopDown template suitable for:

Platformers and other side-scrollers, RPGs, Dungeon Crawlers and Roguelikes, Bullet Hell, really any game that's either 2d+jump or 8direction.

• Fully commented. Also, I'm here for support ;D
• Full expandable platformer and 8Direction controls (included keyboard and gamepad).
• Platformer and 8Directions Animations (Custom frame-by-frame as well as gorgeous juicy effects!)
• Also, special mobile control for platformer designed specially for touch (not a DPAD).
• 3 Platformer AI types (with expandable AI System)
• Dialogs with support to multiple simultaneous dialogs, special characters* and more.
• "Move routes": Move NPCs and Platforms using the route interpreter!
• Smooth camera; Aim camera in 8Dir mode.
• Weapons (Swords, moddable Guns) for top-down mode.
• Have I said enough it's expandable in any way imaginable?

JUICY!

Squash and Stretch.

You can disable it by tuning down the variables in the Animations sheet.

DIALOGS

You can use special characters* in dialogs.

MOVE ROUTE

There's a list of available commands in the .capx, and you can, again, add your own!

A move route is a set of instructions you can give to a "MoveRoute" object;

An example of a move route:

delta:88,0;
delta:0,72;
wait:1;
delta:-88,0;
delta:0,-72;
wait:1

Pretty cool, huh?
