When I saw your GIF my mind exploded with possibilities. What an ambitious project idea and I'm surprised you got it as far as you did in 3 days. My main and only real complaint with this is that it seems to me like there is a little bit of a disconnect between the mega man world and the gallery 3d view. I'm guessing that you aren't converting the 3d models into 2d form via perspective but rather using player coordinates to give a 2d tilemap coordinate depending upon where you are standing. \n\nI am not explaining myself well, but it was hard at times to figure out where your player was and what the world would look like when you went into 2d view but overall great job, one of the best ideas I've seen for this LDJAM","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"abductedPlatypus","author_uid":"1009467","time":"2018-04-24T14:47:48Z","epoch":1524581268,"modified":1524581268,"text":"Thanks for playing my game! It actually is perspective. But I think there might a bug in the mapping, in addition to the Megaman world not being the best pick for 3D to 2D conversion, because multple objects would have to be on the same spot. But that's a hindsight thing.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"greymouth","author_uid":"1038401","time":"2018-04-24T14:56:33Z","epoch":1524581793,"modified":1524581793,"text":"I couldn't stop playing this!

It's amazing that you did all that in just 72 hours. You managed to explore quite a few different puzzle concepts that I think went really well. I think the first room was a bit too crowded for it's own good, especially since perspective matters a lot in this game.

I thoroughly enjoyed the gameplay on this one, even if unfinished funnily enough. \n\nSome finicky positioning of the tiles from perspective sometimes and a bit too floaty 2D controls plague the experience a little bit, but it's definitely a great achievement regardless.

Perhaps it would have helped to make it more clear than what you see in the tablet is 100% made depending on what you see in game. Also you _need_ a ! to have your character.
