This is just a quick setup of a platformer concept in FPSC:R. Think of it as a Mario on steroids

I'm a terrible level designer (I only want to write scripts ), so I thought why wouldn't I hide water and terrain and build a kind of 3D maze? No level (terrain) design hassle I also increased jump speed so you can jump on these big blocks (but not on two stacked blocks).



If you fall off the blocks you are dead. I'm also considering kicking out enemies and make it a PvE game only (ok AI can be considered environment too but you get the point), but if I do that I'll have to make a lot more environment traps, and I'm not sure I can do something special with LUA just yet.

Tried to make floating blocks but I can't jump onto them if I turn physics off (to make them float)

Nice work! I'd love to work together with you sometime on something with platforming and level design

Sure, why not? I'd always appreciate having some space-related block models in outer space instead of blocks made out of bricks. Also, some new ideas about the environmental traps would be awesome

for environmental ideas take a look at prince of persia, those were really good at the 3d type puzzles

does actually remind me of classic Prince of Persia. I think this is a very interesting concept which is a lot different from most of the kinds of games we have been trying to create with Reloaded.

Thanks guys! I will definitely continue working on this

I might even add a time limit to finish the level (save the princess )
