multiplayer was initially planned in some form, but i never had any idea of how it could be implemented and implementing something like that now would be too difficult, especially considering how this project’s been adapted and readapted to different versions of GameMaker since 2014. And the Sonic method would probably be too clunky to control given the small resolution…
