2D Platformer Kit

Hi,
Thanks for purchasing the pack. Your artstyle looks really nice. I can help you out easier if you write to me using my support email. Any questions you have, I can answer them there. help@polyart.io

And while you cannot rotate the capsule, you can scale it a bit to make it fit. It’s not perfect and unfortunately it’s built in the character actor so can’t be changed to something else. I can provide additional assistance through email if needed.

Hi everyone,
Been busy these last few months with a super secret project that I’m not sharing just yet but it will be big and hopefully relevant for most of you! Meanwhile, I have been playing some Dead Cells and I’m loving it and I’m planning to incorporate a few things from it to the kit in the next few days.
Currently working on a Downwards dash attack move ( while in the air you press down and you crash down dealing damage to enemies hit) and a Grenade type projectile.
Expect a new release in the next 2 weeks or so.

Hope these are useful!

Hi,please check your email response. Thanks!

New version submitted.
Includes new Downwards thrust move. Just press S while jumping to activate. Damages all enemies hit.
Refactored XP system so it now uses an XP table that can be infinitely expanded upon to add infinite player levels. Leveling also increased the player’s maximum health.
Should be available in the next few days.

update is now live!

Hi.when do you plan to show us your top secret project? :slight_smile:

Hi,
Can’t share anything just yet,but it’s not long now…

Any chance to add a “Level Selection System” ?
Like in Mega Man X for SNES ?

Hi,
Yes adding a main menu/level selector is on my to-do list.Not exactly sure on the timeline since i’m working on some pixel art packs now but most likely end of december.

Ok, thanks, i’m not planning to release the game right now, i need to add more features first.

Hi all!
I have added a main menu/pause menu system. You can access it by pressing P while in-game.

Hey a quick question, where did you obtain the artwork used in this package if you didn’t create it? I have checked the Credits fodlers and it’s empty. I like the art style and want to see if there’s more matching it. It’s given me some nice ideas.

Hi, have you seen the reported issue of it crashing Unreal 4.21 when you reach level 7?

  • This is really weird. When I test run the game it starts outside of the normal area it’s supposed to start. It starts in a area that I am trapped in!! But it wasn’t like this. I tested the game multiple times and the player started in its normal position. No major changes. Now all of a sudden out of nowhere it starts in a different area that traps me. Any solution to this???

HI, I am aware of the issues above and i am investigating them. Thanks!

Hi,
The issue is that the experience table variable has only 7 levels added. You can add more to it by pressing the + button. I have made some changes to the code so it doesn’t crash and gives you a warning telling you that you have reached the level cap and i will be submitting it but the short time solution is to change the experiencetable variable in the player_character and add more levels.

Can you take a screenshot of your spawn position?

Awesome!

I assume to see the update I would have to start a new project though or can I migrate the updated files into an existing project?

How would you set a maximum level if you don’t want the warning/crash?
