Sure! It might take some time, since I need to add all the other characters that I came up with (you’ll see them soon,) but I assure you, he’ll be added. 😃

I recommend changing up the colors to make the artwork look better. Try changing the colors you know for a fact you won’t be using (like pink or something), into ones that you might need for other parts of the game(another orange or something).

Alright! I’ll take note of that.  
This might be a little weird to ask, but what is the process on making drifting for the game?

Sure you can! After I finish menus and stuff, you could surely help!

One of the first two level ideas I had was a grassy plain with many palm trees, with a water treatment facility (or something) being constructed in the background. The other was a city full of a bunch of gears, cogs, mechanical parts, etc. I bet those could be cool.

Okay @Brohann , so I tried importing this into my current code with some small updates, but it somehow STILL didn’t work. Can someone please help me figure this out?

Okay, that actually did work! Thanks!  
There is a glitch with this method where after dashing, the player will continue moving at the dashing speed instead of the normal speed, but I’m not gonna worry about this now.

Edit: I will start working on various important things that need to be added (such as the hub world, actual levels, and enemies). Thanks for all your support, and stay tuned 😉

Stay tuned counter: 1

Hey there! Oh, speaking of, I need help with the enemies!  
I know how to code their behaviors, that’s just fine, but I need help making them all do the SAME thing. In one of my [older topics](https://forum.makecode.com/t/issues-with-platformer-game-enemies/17597) I needed help with making enemies that don’t fall off of ledges, and I achieved that, but it basically failed because all of the enemies were not doing the same thing. So, is it possible to make them ALL go side to side and not make them fall of ledges?

Absolutely! you can have a code run for all of the enemies when using this:

(the code above makes all of the enemies move right)

Thanks! But just to clarify, did you mean the actual x or velocity x (vx)?  
Also, another question, would it be possible to make afterimages while the character is dashing?

Hey, that’s pretty cool! It might take a while to add him, since I’m making the core features of the game right now (such as levels and enemies). He’s coming though.
