If the smash game is in pure basic, wouldn't that be slow(ish) depending on the graphic amount?

He isn't making it pure basic, you misinterpreted him ;) he said "quite basic" which means "not very advanced"
However I disagree. Any clone of smash should not be treated as a non-advanced game and should not be attempted by a beginner. You're still free to try and maybe blow my mind, though :)

Yeah :P

I treat myself as a beginner, and I haven't tried anything drastic (yet). I suppose trying it after mastering the basics would be better

Best of luck. I always support test your own boundaries....

May I advise you split up the making SSB into component programs though?
For example:
Program to make a map -->
Program that allows a character to move around/jump -->
Program to animate action (walking/attacking) -->
(optional) Program for map to follow a focal point -->
Program for basic linking -->
Program of two characters display with linking -->
Program for object interaction -->
(not optional) Program to make user lose the game -->

If you really want a map game that's still easy enough to make, you should consider a simple Tunnel game and work up from there. If not, best of luck with Smash.
As a matter of fact... I've already made a successful tunnel game. It even has obstacles you can turn on, and off.

I'm doing it in Axe

Yeah... I know about the modify button and stuff, but I didn't want to add another quote since I already had one.

Well you can have several quotes in the same post. See that quote above and the following useless quote as an example.

Yeah :P

I was confused by what Hayleia meant until I saw "following useless quote" when I quoted it (was going to quote it) :P

Multiple quotes in one post is perfectly fine.

Ok, so for those who thought I would have given up on the SMH program, I have not. It's not going to be what you would call, "Super Smash Bros" though. Right now, I'm working with jax_ to make the game, and it's going really well! Just for a side project while I'm doing this, I have made a good bit of sprites.
Does anyone have a good idea for a platform game I could do? Thanks!  ;D
