I think I am going to make that (spiritual) sequel to my compo entry. It's nice to see that you're continuing work on yours. good luck, and if there are any physics questions you/your coder have, I can probably answer them. hey syn!

Then I found out about the psdmap utility (http://www.verge-rpg.com/files/detail.php?id=483). It is much quicker. It can also recognize similar sections that have been used multiple time and reuse the same tile. For this reason, the tiles end up being the same size as regular tiles if you draw the map correctly. You can check our compo entry, Wind, for an example. The maps in the demo were done using psdmap.

I intend to do the same in my game, but have no idea if it really is feasible on a medium/large scale. How big are the file size it creates when importing images as layers?

If you have any questions about polishing up the jumping physics, just ask. I had to produce like 50 builds before I could get troupe to approve of my first platformer's physics. Awesome!

Took me so long... I really fail at platform games ><... Overall: Fun gameplay and cute graphics. However I have to agree with "missing it on the return and having to wait for it to clear the screen was annoying". Weeee, finished playing it! Took me so long… I really fail at platform games ><…

Once that got cleared up, though, the game was pretty fun. I liked being able to toss the boomerang (or giant sword) in any direction to attack, though missing it on the return and having to wait for it to clear the screen was annoying. Not bad for a week's work. Not bad at all. I’ll admit to throwing the initial version down in frustration after finding I would instantly die just for maybe thinking I might touch a mole.
