Skyline Gen2 can now be confirmed as a game engine yay! This is Gen2s first game however simple

As you know we have been working on a simple game and accompanying documentation to test the Skyline Gen2's development workflow from start to exported game. To make this more fun we themed the mechanics in a very seasonal style and thought "Hey this would make a nice Xmas Card". So with out further ado grab your game/Card here:

lol got so fast it was like I was going backwards got the distance and coins with no hidden ending

how did you do the ground so it kept spawning like that like a never ending level nice

[StarFire]

lol it does go like mad. The distance was our hi score and hi distance I think this was 148. Finding it hard to pass 148 not sure my eyes can take it lol.

The ground and all objects were spawned and moved a set amount per fame to give the illusion that you are moving forwards. The ground is made of 3 tiles and as the first tile passes a set distance its position is move to a start pos, each tile then repeats this . Same was for the ground sides

[TattieBoJangle]

Very nice trick I could have swore I was moving forward

[SolarPortal]

yeah, it is a good example of smoke & mirrors we keep mentioning

[StarFire]

Yes using this method procedural levels can be generated

Forgot to mention when you posted this, that the dungeon generator hidden in the pages looks great and we will probs give it a go at some point as it looks fun to try and code up lol
