Blobula Freedom v0.6
Hey everyone,
Here is the newer version of Blobula Freedom.
I just added a slightly more proper jumping feature. When you hold space bar down, the blob will start applying a force down that builds up (to a max) the longer you hold it down. When you let go, that force is applied in reverse upwards [Credit to Mike Belotti for that idea!]. You can use this to try and jump. I'd appreciate any and all feedback!
Oh and I wanted to share some info on editing the game:
I tried as much as possible to make the game data driven. All this data is currently stored in easy-to-edit text files that are located in the Resources folder. Here are they key files:
Resources\Blobula_Freedom.ini will allow you to edit basic game settings like gravity and max jump speed along with blob's color.
Resources\GameData\BlobSettings.CFG will allow you to edit physics settings for the blob including the strength of the various springs that keep the blob together. This is fun to mess with and see what will happen. Just remember that collision is done with the outside points of the blob only! Also make sure to keep the radius under 200 or else there shall be problems!
Oh as an extra note, try to keep any shapes you make in the editor to 4x4 tiles (when set at 64, tile size - the default). There is a small bug with the spatial partitioning system that doesn't like objects being much bigger than that.
