side scroller mech
this took me a little while to make, I had fun designing the mech part graphics (the guns weren't made by me!), scripting was a little bit of a nuisance, but it I didn't have that many glitches, hopefully you enjoy using my side scroller mech

BTW I could add updates, the main one I would make would be a jump with the jump animation, that would be tough, but I could do something like it, if you want me to add a jump or want another update tell me

Re: side scroller mech
Very nice indeed, the scripting for the mech animation is pretty complex, interesting to see how it would actually perform in a game though. Perhaps you could think about adding in a target spawn to "destroy" and actually have it scroll through the "level"
I can help with the destroy and scrolling elements - but haven't managed to figure out how to do the spawns yet - anyone able to help me out with that?

Re: side scroller mech
I could easily make an epic game out of this, but #1 I find scratch boring now, so I have no will to make a game and #2 scratch is a pathetic program that can barely handle that mech alone, if I run just a few more sprites it'll start lagging

Re: side scroller mech
i tried ur mech its pretty cool. i think cool things could be made out of scratch, it just takes more effort. unfortunately i don't know if scratch 1.4 will now have online capabilites and seeing as i was realy hoping for that and planning to use it, i now have no motivation. anyway check out scratch bash 3, it'll prove that good games can be made out of scratch

1.4 has online capabilities as I recall, but they don't work as usual
