oooh, just had an idea - with that night sky backdrop, all the tiles and also your character could be white! That would look so cool!

That's what I plan on doing, because the immediate backdrop is black.  I'll prolly just xor the sprites which will makes them white against the buildings anyway :P

Just saw the screenshots. The physics look great! (Still not sure if the word "physics" is plural or not.)

PLEASE post the updates on the first post. That is like the #1 rule in project posts, nobody likes digging through posts.

Actually, I like it better when people post their progress as they go.  This gives a much better timeline of events and it also shows the progression of the project better.  Plus there's no way to tell if the first post has been edited since you last viewed it, which I find annoying because then I miss stuff.
However, it's all a matter of personal opinion.

I like to see updates in two forms, in the form of editing the first post, and also in the form of new posts. That way we can see both^

Normally it's worked for me to just have a new post in the thread, and link to it from the first post..
(there hasn't been very much yet, but once there's something big it'll be evident ;D)

That works too. I personally like the formula of editing first post, then saying in a new post that there is an update in first post. I just dislike if the person edits his first post but never reply again to his topic to bump it, since nobody knows then x.x

I'm currently trying to get it working :P
Only thing I'm doing different is storing it column-by-column instead of the normal row-by-row, but it's bugging like crazy..

Got some help from builder on the etherpad, and now it's working :D
So once I get onto it, smoothscrolling, then the background thing*, then eventually AI ;D


*I might have multiple backgrounds for different levels.  Not quite sure yet tho.
