Hello. I've started making a platform game. Since I know the gameplay of 3d platformers depends alot on the control and movement, I've decided to release builds of this movement. This one is just the x-z axiz movement. You can move using the direction keys, and rotate the camera around the character using the mouse. The player moves with a curve-angle towards the 8 directions, accoarding to the camera Test for yourself, and please comment it as much as possible. Stuff like, character must rotate along with camera and w,s,a,d, cam movement are things I've thought about. What do you guys think??

The movement is smooth and the collision is good too. The I problem I had was that I was getting about 35 fps average.

Thanks for pointing that out, but as I said, this engine is to test the x-z axis movement only. The jumping (y-axis) is still extremely basic. I haven't coded the thing you meen, and the jumping itself isn't smooth, it's ugly. So no bug, but thanks for telling
