Tooney The Little Green Monster

Jump or die! Platform Games Jumping games are subsets of popular platform games like Mario. The action usually take place in a more subdued form, and the main priority is for the player to jump to safety, or to get more points. A more traditional platform game like Mario (which we'll learn to do in Tutorial 8) is one which involves more complex game level design, and there're usually monsters or some fun platform mechanics (moving platforms, platforms that vanish after you land on them) to interest the player. One of the popular jumping games I've seen recently is Icy Tower. It's basically quite a simple game where you just keep jumping and jumping. Another popular one (in a small survey done some years back, this was actually the most popular casual game) was Winter Bells, where you use your mouse to keep landing on platforms which propels you further up. Here, we'll learn how to create the proper mechanics for it, and it will lead up to our next tutorial. Game Scenario Tooney the little green monster has a penchant for shiny coins, and he is on his way to jump all the way up into the sky where he heard there're lots of them. Over at the place they call the Waterfall, falling platforms or bricks constantly fall from the sky. If Tooney were to get up, this would be the place. Help Tooney scale the falling bricks, and go as high as you can! Game Details The player controls the movement of Tooney with the LEFT, RIGHT keys. Tooney can be made to jump with the SPACEBAR key. Each brick that falls off the screen earns Tooney 10 points. Do not let Tooney fall off the platforms. How To Play Objective: Keep Tooney alive by jumping onto the platforms as they fall. Controls: Press LEFT and RIGHT keys to move Tooney. Press SPACEBAR to jump.
