Runner - Platform Game Demo (WIP)

Hi, I’m a big fan of platform games and have started a basic game from the Lerpz tutorial.

I’m still a bit stuck with the controls as I would like to make a double jump and make the controls more smooth like in Mario and Sonic.

Therefore I’m definitely thinking about getting the 2D-Jump-n-Run-Framework.

Here’s what I got so far, most of it is placeholder graphics and sounds, just wanted to get an idea of were it can go, so all the shaders, depth of field, terrain, particles, watershaders are trown in the mix.

Let me know what you think?

Here’s the link to play the Runner Demo in the browser

omg amazing, simply amazing style and concept, lol how do i get the demo to work?

Thanks!

It should load the unity plugin with the game ( below the picture on the site )
Make sure to let it load as it’s 25 MB.
It plays best in fullscreen, much smoother than windowed.
Let me know if you can’t get it to work, enjoy!

Looks great! I love the depth in the pictures! I will add the 3DAnimation Component in the next update, so your game should be possible then :slight_smile:
If you need anything just say a word and I will see what I can do!

nothing so far, maybe its just me…but nothing has loaded. i have unity player installed.

That’s Awesome! :slight_smile: I’m looking forward to the 3D animation support.
One other user did request too, it would be nice to have a acceleration that kicks in when running longer so the player will get a boost!
This would be welcome, Thanks for the feedback!

Will put that on my to do list for the next version :slight_smile:

mm I just heard another person were it does not load, what version of the unity player do you have installed?
Maybe it’s because I’m using Wordpress with unity, I will have to look into this, what browser do you use?

Superb! ( Quick question did the demo run on your system?)

i am using crappy ie and the latest version of the player

Not sure how to get it to work in the browser therefore made it available for download.

@lars
yes, but I had’nt seen the player. but after a while it just loaded up. Maybe it’s invisible till it’s fully loaded?

Super art work, nice simplicity, (lame sound effects haha), I see potential in this game, it has nice image effects like foreground bokeh (from what it seems like), and bloom gives off a nice mood, keep it up.
