Sidescroller Demo

Important Note:
This demo is now part of my Sidescroller library. To access the demo download that library instead, the demo comes packaged with it. To minimize confusion the download link has been removed from this page.

This demo expands on my pixel movement demo to show how to create some features you'll often see in sidescrolling games. If you want to better understand how the movement works, the pixel movement demo is a better place to start. It's just a simpler version of the sidescroller demo.

The purpose of this demo is to provide you with the basic movement capabilities you need to create a sidescrolling game. It also shows you how to implement some common features so you can quickly figure out how to add more features. These features include:

• Jumping
• Ladders
• Bullets
• Spike traps
• Moving platforms
• Ramps
• Managing the mob's icon_state
