First important detail. If it is currently touching something… the ledge hitbox moves up by 10y (or something like that) then checks if it is touching the hitbox again. If it isn't this time, it registers it as a close ledge then moves the hitbox down until it touches the level so that the costume lines up. If the player wants to drop down from the ledge, it will slightly change x away from the ledge so that the regular hitbox doesn't then collide with the wall.

I also implemented a wall climb, so that if the player hasn't done one already, he will jump up (set yspeed to 8 or something like that) if he is pressing right/left INTO the wall and pressing up.

Ok. I'll try and implement it in the next test.

Guys, just a quick question. Will each level be a biome? Or can we add multiple levels per biome. (like multiple jungle levels)

I think we should do whatever flows and feels good.

If we do have it with each level being a biome, then it could be like the old Sonic games, where each level has multiple ‘acts’ or sub-levels.

Also, due to the demise of tinypic, those of us who use the EGUC banner in our signatures are out of luck. If anyone would like to make us a new banner and host it elsewhere, that would be great!

So, I'm gonna start working on an update now.
Tell me if there's anything you want changed!

or maybe we could just use the studio's image

1. Are there any other changes i could make to the redesign?
   
   
2. Is there anything you particularly like/dislike about it?
   
   
3. Is that thing on his wrist a wristwatch? A wrist-compass?

I finished the main redesign of Drifter, though he isn't holding (or even carrying) his sword quite yet. In the mean time, i have a few questions still:

1. I can't really think of anything more to add, other than possibly adding more texture to his clothes.
   
2. I really like the new hair, and the proportions look more realistic now. The eyebrows and mouth look a bit too cartoonish though, and there's something weird about the eyes.
   
3. I assume it's a watch, but I don't know if that makes sense with the story.

@G_A_C here's a first test for the ledge-grabbing mechanic. You should be able to jump up from a ledge and drop from a ledge by pressing “s”.
Thoughts?

I think it works really well! I'll try and fix the player model so he lines up with the ledge. Looks great!

I had to change the hitbox a bit, and I may have made it too wide. That's probably why he doesn't line up.
