Redpill Game Creator

Zener · 30 August 2021, 21:15

Starting this thread to share progress on this game creation tool. Next version is going to be 0.9, a lot of new stuff is coming in:

Background level layer can now also be Foreground layer, supporting 4 or 16 colors besides the one used in the rest of the game, also supporting loop and scrolling in x and y.

Quick edit level feature inside the level screen to allow selecting tiles without swaping to tile screen like before.

Quick object selection inside the level screen.

New triggers, improved performance and compatibility, less memory usage and lots of fixes.

This video teases some of the new WIP features

Thank you both! Another feature being added for easy editing are the shortcuts for the objects in the level.

I really like that horizontal ribbon-like user interface. Not a single pixel wasted

empardopo · 13 September 2021, 00:44

Are there tutorials, examples, ect to start with this engine?
Thanks in advance

Looks pretty cool, GJ Zener :-)

acidbottle · 10 November 2021, 22:47

Going to pick this up again soon. You have made so many cool changes to when I last gave it a whirl and even then had managed a scrolling map with some sprites moving about.

I did have a time grasping some of the logic needed but its a really solid and fun program to use, something to tinker with when upstairs on the Amiga!

Thank you very much! If you need any help or have feedback just let me know.

I have just released a new version with performance improvements (I hope I didn't break anything in the process) http://aminet.net/package/dev/misc/REDPILLGameCreator
