its not working for me quite well. the code is all the same but the height is 15 and the width is 12. for some reason it doesnt seem to work. do you know what may have caused the problem? i am posting it so if you could look at it that would be great. please help!
This isn't really a complete game, it's just a demonstration of how to make a scrolling game. You could download this project and then remix it to make your own Zelda-style game, or anything else that requires a scrolling background.
Amazing! I have been trying to do somthing like this for a while but my way was much more complicated and glithy. Yours is simple and efficient. Nice job. I will try to make a remix of this. I will tell you when I post it.
I'd love to see the remix when you get it done. I appreciate your compliment. I worked hard to make the code simple--I appreciate elegance in programming.
This is a scrolling version of my map engine! With this game you only need four sprites to play on a map of unlimited size that can scroll both horizontally and vertically.
The maps can be any size as long as you use multiples of the stage dimensions. Make sure to number the backgrounds correctly and consistently in all four map sprites. You can see from their backgrounds how I do this... Basically you break the map into a grid and then number starting from the bottom left zone and proceeding row by row. The scripts will work for maps that are just one row or one column, so this could also be used for a side-scrolling game.
Please remix this and create games with it!
I will try to update it soon with a more elegant solution for the borders of the map.

This is a good template. You should make an adventure game out if it. It would be awesome!!!!!
This is great you could make some amazing games with it!

im currently working on the largest scrolling map that scratch has ever seen!!! and this will help soo much. thanks a bunch!
wow is this helpful! i really needed to find a way to do this so thanks!!!
If I use this for a overworld and this project: (link to project) for the levels and a few sprites I could make a mario game!
I don't get it, what am I supposed to be looking for or doing? Could you explain it a bit better.

i like the fact that the codes are so basic. I previosally tried a 2 wayscrolling engine however found it had a bug or 2.
Thanks! I worked hard to make the simplest, most elegant code possible. If you find any bugs in this one, let me know.
Wow, awesome! I've been looking for something like this! Could it be adapted for velocity?
That's a good question. I think it is definitely possible. Perhaps you can try yourself. I may look into it for future upgrades.
Wow this is really cool! Im not very good at scrolling with y and x coordinates. my scrolling engines dont work so this would be great for a remix.
I'll be curious to see what you come up with. Let me know when you post something!
Yea I'm going to remix this! thanks alot! But I don't know what I'll use it for....
Cool! Let me know when you post something. I'd love to see what you come up with.
Nicely done! I like how efficient the code is :)
Thanks! I spent the afternoon scribbling on little sheets of paper and then was surprised when it worked on the first try!
