This old tut was a big hit back on old SP so I figured I'd bring it back so that way people can use it here =)
This is very old and the graphics need updateing but the tut is still good

If i remember there was a problem with the box code, you could add more description for some of the codes.

I saw it back on sp.
It was pretty good, helped me.

I remember this tut. Best tut that helped me when it came to games. Thanks RC. ^_^

woo! again its popular =)

yes there is a MAJOR glitch in the platform code, if you jump when theres a wall above you you will jump into the wall and if you keep jumping, climb the wall BE AWARE OF THIS WHEN MAKEING THIS GAME

I hope to add more to it soon, and update graphics [I have to get into summer first =\]

its nice but the play button on the final product doesnt work :P

becuase you have to hit how to play =P I never finished the game just the how to play level so hit that, forgot to put that in first post...

I really want to add more but I'm to lazy to do so, and I have collabs I need to work on...

Instance names? Last one is missing the first 'o'

Why can't you add a link to download the .fla file as well? I tried the tut and the game went completely wrong.
