Thread: SkyLock graphics engine demo

Tech, if you mean difficult using the arrow keys then I understand, but remember the arrow keys won't be used for control in the actual game.

Oh I didn't even think about that. The movement you're going to have in the future sounds really cool. Good luck with that. Btw, I didn't mean to sound negative about your game.

As far as for why I chose hex:

I agree that hex based map can offer a lot more than an iso one could. Having eight different tiles around you adds a lot of possibilities and strategies to the game.

red_baron, check out my post 5th on the first page:

I still need to correct the ASM bot's *.tp file, but that has to do with changes to the bitmap's offset points and not to the tool's code).

The *.tp file is what defines where the sprites are blitted. Now that the tool is finished I just have to open the sprite's bitmap in Paint, put a white or black hotspot offset point and when the game engine parses it in it will blit the sprite relative to the offset.

Thanks again for giving it a test run.
