1.5 Feature demo

by Andy S. · in iTorque 2D · 10/27/2011 (2:24 pm) · 2 replies

I have some questions regarding the 1.5 feature demo.
1.) Is this sidescroller similar to Castle Crashers? I mean, player moves up and down on the Y axis, can jump? Sort of 2.5D?
2.) Would this demo run in TGB 1.7.5 as well? I ask because I own both engines, but basically onyl want to get the 1.5 feature demo to have a headstart in creating a game similar to castle crashers.

Thanks

It's sort of similar to Castle Crashers, but only in restricting the player movement. The soldier can move up and down. The height of the sprite goes through an interpolation based on it's position on the Y-axis. No jumping, though.

A lot of it will transfer over, since it is behavior driven. You would have to change the input scheme, however.

Thanks Michael. Probably I will get the upgrade. However, will there be new demos included in the next TGB version 1.7.6?
