Flare Engine - 2D Platformer Tools (for Unity)

[@BluesInSeattle]

I love what you are doing here. I hope you can get more people to purchase and build a community. I bought a license to support you and I'll post a video or two to show people what can be built with it.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

I appreciate the kind words! If you run into any issues or want to request a feature, let me know! Edit: In the mean time check out the tutorials. More on the way!

[@pnvgordinho]

Congrats. This looks amazing.

Was not expecting to hear The Suffering Game OST on a unity asset video 😆

Loving the ai!🍻🍻

Looks great!!!

Hi, can you add going up and down to rope in 0:15 , I mean climbing up or down to the rope that you hanging

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Yes, this is a possibility. Though I have not tested this in a while.

[@NikoBellicXDS]

Not planning on making any platformer game right away, but this does look pretty interesting, any demo game to try out? (usually there is a web or desktop demo so one can try it out and get a better idea of what can be done with the engine/asset). So far it looks really nice, and feature-rich, even for 50 USD, nice work!

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Hopefully I can make a web demo soon. Right now it's 25$ due to the launch promotion. Thanks for you inquiry!

[@VhsGO]

Hello, I am delighted with the work you have done! There are a large number of mechanics and it is convenient to use the provided tools. however, I have encountered difficulties when trying to implement a rotating room. No matter how I try to implement this mechanic using Flare2D, the character behaves incorrectly. could you help with the solution/give a hint how can I do this mechanic?

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

I'm sorry, but the player controller (and ai) cannot work with rotating collisions. The palyer can use slopes and even run around a room, but if the platform itself is rotating, that cannot work.

[@VhsGO]

@@twobitmachinesdev4757 Got it, thanks for the reply)

[@OscarFernandez]

Seems very solid. Does it have sliding down a slope? Or Slope slide like mario games ? Does this support organic grounds to use with Sprite shapes ?

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

I will add slope sliding on the next update (also, player abilities can always be added if you know how to code). As of right now, the collision system does not detect curved sprite shapes. If it's feasible, I will find a way to make it work.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Hey there, I'm not sure if you ever got the tool. If you did, did you ever try using organic grounds? I have finally moved on to this part of the to do list.

[@pnvgordinho]

Can I make a suggestion?. DK on the wii. The ability to jump from the foreground to the background. Another suggestion, Mario galaxy gravity with any shape. If this gets the Mario galaxy gravity, I would buy it for sure. :)

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

I actually haven't seen that before, jumping from foreground to background. Show me a video of this. And I'll see what I can do about mario galaxy gravity. Maybe I can get something to work with circles and rectangles.

[@pnvgordinho]

@@twobitmachinesdev4757 for the jumping, check the game Mutant Mudds. The Mario galaxy gravity, I think it would be better to not to work with circles and rectangles. It would be better, I think, to work with a shape that you draw. To explain better, Im going to email you some images. Thanks.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

@@pnvgordinho Okay, that would be helpful. Thanks!

[@pnvgordinho]

@@twobitmachinesdev4757 Just sent it. And thank you.

[@pnvgordinho]

Is there any plans to make this but with 2.5d?.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Hello there. Well, I haven't tried 2.5d, but I suppose it should be possible. Just use a perspective camera with 3d assets. The character controller should still work as long as you are using a boxcollider2d and sprite engine with unity animations.

[@mikazora423]

Hey, where I can buy the engine?

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Hello there, this works inside Unity. You can find it in the unity asset store. It is on sale right now.

[@Franck-dm9vo]

When will it be available ? At what price ?

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Hopefully before the month is over. It's simply awaiting Unity approval. It's 40$, but it will launch with a 50% sale. Edit: The price will actually be 50$ since I've added Safire 2D Camera to it. I was planning on making this change in a few months, but Unity is taking a bit long and I managed to polish up the camera tool.

[@Franck-dm9vo]

@@twobitmachinesdev4757 I have now bought it. It looks cool. Do you plan to make video tutorials? I think that would be a good idea.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

@@Franck-dm9vo Yes, I will be making some basic video tutorials. Look for the first one in the next couple of days. For now, I do recommend to read the docs. Thank you!

[@studiomonster-c9l]

Does it publish for android with controls built in?

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Yes, android should be no problem. Right now you have to connect UI buttons to the inputs in the system. I'm looking to expand this area more as many people are asking about it.

[@studiomonster-c9l]

Awesome!

[@placeholder4289]

Hey i'll paypal you US50 bucks if you make a tutorial on how to do what I last wanted. The whole start with 1 jump but then touch an item and unlock double jump. Can't figure out how to unlock powerups and not just start with them. As you can see I am noob.

[@twobitmachinesdev4757]

Thanks. Starting in the new year, I will look into creating a place for text based tutorials. Hopefully I can start this process next week.
