emerald-shine

Thanks for the reply guys. I'll look into building a new engine from scratch with worlds as a "base". I wanted to try avoid coding as much as possible since I have no real experience but thats what really makes a game shine. That said I would still like a reason for why my frames are getting corrupted, thats what really irks me the most. Id hate to put hours into building a new engine only for the next time I open it up, to be effectively told "you wasted your time! Trololol :D" Im on windows 7 if that helps, worlds 0.5 and MMF2 V2.

Hi there everyone. A couple of years ago I attempted to make a sonic fangame to get some experience and show my passion for video games to get into college. Well Im finally in and of course I showed it to my tutour. He liked it, loved it in fact but the one thing he said which really got me thinking was " why havent you taken that engine and made your own original game?" So here we are. I want to take the worlds engine and reporpose it for its own thing, much like Freedom Planet did. Im planning something simillar to Kid Chamelon. For those who dont know, Kid chamelon was a platformer on the megadrive. Throughout the levels players would find maks that when picked up, would change the player into another character with new abillities. When the transformed character ran out of hp, they would revert to the default character (the Kid) and when he ran out of HP the player would die. Its a simple concept but I have no idea how to go about changing the worlds engine to suit my needs, Every attempt I have made seems to go wrong. I was able to implement a HP bar for the default character and also a character change object, Proble is when I change character, the new character is invincible. I tried to fix thatt but when I did, the default character dies in 1 hit. I think it was tied to the rings somehow, of course I dont need them but I would still like to have collectables in the game. Theres also the matter of corrupt frames, Every time I try modifying a fresh Worlds File, after a while when I try reopening the file, I get a corrupted frame, always the one I modifed. I hope someone can assist me in this, I really like worlds engine and would very much like to use it in this endevor. Thanks for reading.
