Wanted to test to use 3d planes for a 2d game for future use.
So mashed this together with the updated assets media
But it where a test...

Very nice. How did you manage the collision?

blink.....
The collision with the slime is very simple and a simple raycast from position 0 to -100.
the slime tiles are randomly placed at positions 0-8 to 0-60 etc.
The player uses no collision on its object at all and we simply use raycast to detect if anything is in the raycast range of the player.

Coins and jewels are at the same layer as the player so i only neaded a simple spherecast....

I dont know but 3d seams so far work better then pure 2d in performance ?

And we have the coolnes to use the shader pack for 2d games...

Gravity is manual and a simple gravity versus thrust counter so no physics.

Goleorn.....
The 2 assets packs tgc sells are some great value art pieces to save some time while prototyping and testing..
Like this Project took me 2 Days instead of a week thanks to the asset packs.

Ps.....
I have the full concept of a 3d to 2d game Engine but not the time to fully do it right now..
Its planned to be a open source Project when i have the time.
Pixelstein takes alot of time currently and is pretty massive for a one man Project...

How nice! I loved the scenario,Cliff! Did you make the scrolling by moving the camera or its 2D? Cheers!

Yes Richard i simply scroll the camera and is super easy...
The extra parallax fx is simply because the tiles are at various depths...

Slime? I thought they were balloons.

Can you die in the game? I see you hit the slime several times but it only casts something around the character. And might I suggest adding a fuel gauge, powered by the crystals. That would give the player a stronger reason you attempt to collect some of the harder to reach ones.

Anyway, I like your alien in your flappy bird game.

phaleax...
No you cant die
Made for a co workers child initially and to test 3d in 2d world ..
The goal is simply to get as high score as possible on the online leaderboard...
Hit slime you get lower scores..
Perfect run you are at the top...
So you only loose score if hitting the slime...
It where a simple test app and had to upload it to the store so my co worker could download it..
If not so would it have bin on my hd only

Almost all artwork is from the tgc assets pack nr 1...
I wanted colorfull slime that where easy to put side by side for this fast test app.

Thanks for all input..
