EE and Zephni's Kick-Ass Scrolling Engine (UPDATED)
What's this?
Well, it's a scrolling engine. (Duh)
But it's not just any scrolling engine, it's a kick-ass scrolling engine! ;O
It combines the various scrolling features used in metroidvania type games and is easy and flexible to use.
Me and Zephni have been trying to come up with features we would want to see in a scrolling engine, and during the last week I've been putting together that engine with invalueable input from Zephni.
It features a smooth follow-cam, "looking around", scroll-borders and the infamous Metroid-style doors...
The whole thing is 60 events, though it's quite improvable and compressable since the events are ordered in such a manner that each feature is easily recognized and removed from the rest. If you intertwine the features you can save a hugh amount of events.
If you alter the engine to fit a level editor you can also optimize the use of actives and the code.
The controls are arrow-keys for moving and looking(hold up/down), shift jumps and space shows what's really going on. F5 goes fullscreen and escape quits.
EDIT: As per request I've made a version of the engine without the PMO and ForEach extension. The files are included in the updated original zip. So if you've already downloaded, do it again! ;D
Please report if you experience any bugs or simply have any questions.
