One shouldn't teach what one doesn't know.
Don't exepect to learn anything. This tutorial doesn't explain the actionscript properly, the author even admits that his understanding of the code he's teaching is poor. This makes the tutorial a poor aid, and frustrating when things don't work. I followed it to the letter and couldn't get the item code working at all, however at least the collision code worked to a degree. There are obviously much better ways to code a platformer though.
It Hurts...
This Game Is Dumb. I have tried over, and over, and over again to get this game to work but it doesn't! I do exsactly what you say but no matter what I do my character doesent move at all and just floats in mid-air! Fix Your Game Then Mabye I'll Try Again.
very good overall
okay i must admit it is an amazing tutorial.but one problem its a platform game tutorial not an rpg one and its very confusing apart from that mint
