This was awesome! I loved the different stage-clearing themes you used! So creative! I just wish there were more controls :/ For some reason the only control that works for me is the 'S' key to turn. Would be much more fun if I had full 8-directional movement! Other than that great job! This was so fun!
Edit: Super fun now that my computer isn't being screwy with GM! :P
This can't be right. The S key isn't bound at all. The default controls are A and D to turn left and right, but you can change that to J,L / 4,6 / ctrl,alt / lmb,rmb or X/B on the gamepad. The reason for the minimal control scheme is to allow local multiplayer on one computer (most keyboards are capped in the button pressed they allow simultaniously. Also, controling the character well is pretty much the only real skill-check there is :)
Okay, I will try it again. It is very possible I had my gamepad plugged in and the left stick was sticking or something. I thought it was weird cause the player just kept moving and when I would press S it would start going in circles. haha. If I had to guess the S key was cancelling out one of the other controls? What's weird is when I pressed A/D it didn't seem to do anything. Could be some funky game maker thing too. I will try it out again! haha. Thanks! :D
Just tried it and it works fine with A/D now. I Unplugged the gamepad and it worked fine. Couldn't seem to re-create the issue. Not exactly sure what was going on. I'm running Win7 so it could be something with using an older OS. I've had the gamepad randomly start controlling my mouse cursor before with the right stick so.... lol. Thanks!
