hehe. thats cute.

actually, thats just the general 13 year old public in newgrounds that does that. The ones that have never touched flash before and that only like porn and violence thinking "i'm the coolest shit that ever happened, bitch". So... ignore them. There are plenty sane people there and you can spot them from a mile away. =P Take their advice instead.

i guess you dont have any trouble with timeline controls or buttons.

good old
on(release){
nextFrame;
}

XD

lets see if you can make a simple platformer now. =) No lovley animations needed, just use a circle or something =P

make it move left, right and be able to jump. The tuts will help alot but dont just copy code. You should know what you're writing. Some of the tuts on AS:Main should give the code needed and explain what it does.

EDIT: Gamemaker is NOT real programming >.< It doesn&#39;t really even lead you into it much. Plus, its not very flexible. You can only do so much.

Oh, and I just got an idea last night for a pure API (all code, no drawings) engine. =P Gonna try to start it this week if time I have.
