This project is a custom module for the NESMaker game engine based on the ArcadePlatformerBase module.
This module introduce a mechanic I'm working for a future puzzle game, which is turning enemies into blocks where you can use to reach inacessible platforms.
This project does not contain a working game, but only exploratory code to make the main mechanic work.
I started a thread at the NESMakers Forum for discussions around this project and to post updates. Also, there's a few videos on YouTube if you're interested to see some "gameplay" and NESMaker hacks.
Ideally you should use this project only as a reference to build your own since I won't distribute the assets (they are not mine). But if you want to hack around it, here you go:
- Create a new project based on the
ArcadePlatformBasemodule - Clone this repository and move or copy it to
GameEngineData/Routines/BASE_4_5/Game/MOD_MagicRockfolder. - Replace the scripts in this module using the Project, Project Settings, Script Settings tab.
- Add the
colInfoto the custom variables (Project, Project Settings, User Variables).
The screenshot below shows the input configuration I used in the project:
MOD_ArcadePlatformerExt is the name I gave to this custom module on my local file system.
You can do whatever you want with this code, but if you're going to use it in your game, I ask you to also open the source of your custom module and give the proper credits. To make my previous statement clear: you're not allowed to use this code if you don't open your code as well.
NESMaker is a paid engine, and I don't own the rights of it. The closer I could find of a license is this post on tumblr. I also copied his post on the LICENSE.md file in this project. Please read.
