The Gameplay

This is an action/adventure, puzzle centric platforming game. A platforming game is only as good as it's platforming elements, here are the elements that I had time to implement, and ones that I want to add to the final game

Present Elements

• Static platforms
• You can jump on top of them.
• The player does not collide unless approaching the top of it, moving down.
• The player can pass through a platfom by pressing down + jump.
• Moving platforms (horizontal)
• Same as static platforms, but they move!
• Doors
• Either horizontal or vertical.
• Doors can be locked or unlocked.
• Doors can have their status switched by Triggers and Switches
• Switches
• You press the action key next to one to send the appropriate signal to the target entity
• Can be told to fire only once, useful for making irreversible changes.
• Triggers
• The player walks into the invisible box that is the Trigger, and it sends a signal to the target entity.
• Can also be specified to fire only once.
• Electric Hazards
• The player hits this, and they die :(
• Can have their on/off state changed by Triggers and Switches.
• Can be initially on or off.
• Enemies
• They move about, and don't fall from the surface that they are on.
• You touch it and die, don't do that.
• Their HP can vary, for when the player eventually gains offensive abilities.
• Gravity Lifts
• You enter the field's loving embrace, jump, and are gloriously propelled upward.
• Lifts can have their status changed by Switches and Triggers.
• Lifts can be spawned initially on or off.
• Lifts can have their speed and size altered, allowing for fun stuff.

Future Elements

• Pressure Buttons
• Just like a switch, except it sends it's signals based on whether or not a solid is on top of it.
• Anything could trigger the switch, including the player, enemies, and anything else that makes sense.
• Movable Blocks
• A solid block that the player can move around. These can be used to build escapes, or press Pressure Buttons.
• Timed Electric Hazards
• Just like Electric Hazards, except their on/off state changes based on a timer.
