I had an idea. If you were planning on using the same elements as the Pikmin types (fire, water, ect.) why not make their heads a different shape? For example red would resemble a flame shape, blue a water drop or rain shape, yellow a light bulb.. Just an idea!

It's a genre I haven't seen many attempt to explore on here. I'd personally love a Metroid style platformer.

The only thing I wish the 3DS version would include is the Mystery Mushrooms, but I'm still super happy about this. Maybe now we'll see a bigger variety of games in this community instead of Stage Maker reskins.

Yeah the ground blocks are in the BG files. It confused me at first too, haha.

【D34NYPDF】I think this is the key you're looking for.

@Cyclops I think he might be referring to that Japanese clone of Splatoon. It's actually a really fun game, and very well polished.

As for animations I have trouble with that, but I guess I could possibly do the sprites for animations.

I sprite so many things, yet I have no clue how to program well enough to even make use of them, heh.. At least I still had fun making Samus!

I'm trying to implement a top-down jump for my game, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to accomplish this. I haven't had a problem with side scrolling jumps.

If you're referring to the 3DS in general, the closest thing you'll probably get to a GTA style game is Retro City Rampage DX in the eShop. It's essentially an 8-bit GTA.

Amazing. :)

Wow that looks really nice, great job!

It takes time and much effort to code. Just be patient, and updates will come eventually.

Nice job!

Oh ok, I was doing it the right way all along, I just had a couple errors in the code. Thank you once again!

I did have one more question though, how would I display a sprite larger than the character used in the example?

I saw your comment on my post, and this was just what I needed and it helped me get a much better understanding! Thank you!

That looks really nice, great job!

I input the Konami code, and the second I heard Megalovania, I knew I was about to have a bad time ;) This is absolutely amazing! I love it!

Holy moly, that looks good! Nice job!
