At certain points you will be able to exit back to the main floor with all your loot. Dying however will send you back to the main floor without anything. at the shop you&#8217;ll be able to buy upgrades to help you out, but i&#8217;m still unsure of how that will work yet. At the moment i&#8217;m just making levels and adding new features when it&#8217;s necessary. It&#8217;s hard to add timing, dodging, enemy, etc. elements because of your character&#8217;s grid based movement:<\/p>\n <p>for example: pressing right will jump your character 96 pixels to the right into the room to the right.<\/p>\n <p>i guess i&#8217;ll just go with the flow and see what comes up!<\/p>\n <div id=\"attachment_11994\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-11994\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/floor1-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"the first floor\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/floor1-300x223.jpg 300w, http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/floor1-550x409.jpg 550w, http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/floor1.jpg 639w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">the first floor<\/p><\/div>\n \n <p>Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/ld16\/\" rel=\"tag\">ld16<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/quest\/\" rel=\"tag\">quest<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/tag\/tower\/\" rel=\"tag\">tower<\/a><\/p>","time":"December 11th, 2009 11:43 pm","title":"Tower Quest"}
