Group Name: Megaman CS

Updates:

• Done!

To Play: Open the Final folder, then open Final.pde, then run the file

6/14/15
Updates:

• added animations for mob
• added terrain to map2
• lowered mob HP to 1
• added music
• added animation for 2nd boss
• added start, victory, and game over screen

Bugfixes:

• fixed bullets so that their movement is not relying on the number of mobs(don’t as why it was like that)
• fixed music bugging out and switching for one to the other non-stop(causing a lot of lag)
• fixed terrain so they were actually able to be jumped onto
• fixed boss bullets so that they would to into account ycor(didn’t do this before cause the bullets were all on 1 ycor)
• fixed player glitching through maps diagonally
• fixed sound not switching and changing correctly when player dies, spawns boss, kills boss, changes level or wins

Need to do(but can’t):

• parallax background

Rare bugs:

• random glitching of player through a block setting player 2 block lower than player should be, cannot reproduce consistently and cannot figure out why
• bosses(and very occasionally mobs) running through bullets and not getting hit
• hitboxes of player, mob, boss not interacting correctly (not damaging the player) cannot replicate

Updates:

• expanded first map(2x), added 2nd map

5/22/15 (Initial Setup) Roadmap of goals:

• Basic movement (left and right)
• Jumping
• Enemies+life implementation
• Hitboxes
• Attacks
• Map structure
• Boss/possible mini-boss
• Sprites
• Music
• More levels
• Polishing hitboxes and sprites

What will be challenging:

• movement and sprites, maybe the jumping depending on implementation(holding spacebar makes you jump higher or a set jump)

What are the minimum features for a working project:
Movement, enemies, attacking, interactions between sprites (hitboxes)

Brief Description:
We will be creating a platform game similar to Megaman. The player uses a character to maneuver across a map while killing enemies by using projectiles or a sword. There is going to be a boss at the end of the stage.
