Platform Games

Me and some kids from my school are making a game for a project in school.  We were playing to make a platform game like Mario but we are a little confussed.  This is the first time we are using this program and are wonder if anyone out there can help us make a platform game.  If you know what to do, reply and explain how it works, or you can give us a URL that could help.

Re: Platform Games

Do you want a single screen or something that scrolls?

Platform games can be as simple or complicated as you like...

For the absolute basics, you should start with the "jetpack girl" demo which includes the ability to stand on platforms, and gravity.  You'd need to replace the continuous jet script (that allows flight) with a simple jump instead, but then you would be on the way.
