Platformer-HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to make a platformer game like Mario, but have several problems:

1. How do you make characters jump?

2. How do you make it so you can use items & ?

3. How do you make it so you can have lives & a health bar?

4. How can you make it so there is more than 1 level?


Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Platformer-HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So you are saying that you want to make a game similar to Archknight's Adventure?
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/archknight/80465

This is not easy to do and should NOT be your first project.

If you want you can try remixing the Archknight's Adventure project.

I don't see any other projects in your stuff page so you should try to make smaller games and get to know your way around scratch.

One project I think you may find helpful is Sprite Movement Done Right

Re: Platformer-HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear archmage,
The reason I have no projects in my stuff page is that I have dial-up internet, and I can't upload stuff because it would take about 500 hours. I am currently working on a game set in space, and is sorta like a blend of Super Mario and Starcraft. Also, I am working on a car racing game, but it is kinda buggy.
