any updates from the asset store ?

Still pending review. They might have many submissions. I will hit them with a email.

Ok, so the review was declined, they said the name needs to change and pointed some tweaks I should make - although this is personal , I will make them toggleable, mostly, make the camera follow the player direction.

I will resubmit this tonight after tweaking and finding a better name for it. Any Suggestions?

Renamed the Asset for Platforming Game Development Kit! Waiting for approval once again, rewrote all the documentation to a more current and easier to understand format.

still no updates ?

13

Still waiting for their reply… Seems to take a unusually long time, probably due to the amount of scripts / features it contains.

14

So finally PGDK is LIVE!

for exemple i entered into the spiral and suddenly i m in the other side … but what’s more annoying is that we you run and try to jump you miss you target and in some cases he keeps running without stoping …sorry if i m bothering you :S

You are not bothering, there are speed pads in the ground that force you to run for a predetermined time, although you can’t actually pass through the loop, but if you jump while under the pad influence you might be stuck running somewhere else. This can be said due to bad level design on my part. I will change the webplayer to stop your jumping motion, or to cancel the move if you jump during a predefined movement.
