Post by Remarci in Back to Back jam comments

Thanks for the feedback. Could you explain what was the problem with jumping and which level didn't restart completely?

All of the levels don't restart completely, in fact when I started the game the levels didn't restarted at all.

That's strange, I checked and it seemed to work just fine. For the button controls: backspace only resets the level to the last touched checkpoint (which either means a complete restart or resetting to the second checkpoint) and the delete key restarts the level completely.

Wait you mean the key just above Backspace ?

Maybe, I don't know your keyboard layout but there should be "Delete" written on it.

OH MY GOD it's even worse now. Almost no one thinks about the delete key.

What do you mean? It doesn't really matter which key you map things to if it's stated somewhere in a list with the other controls. I chose backspace and delete for reset and restart because they are far away from both the A and D and left and right arrow keys which are used for movement so players won't accidentally press them while playing. This might have been a bit of an overkill but still... if people paid for their whole keyboard, why shouldn't they use their whole keyboard? :D

Also, you tried make it so you have to hold a button to jump, but when you release the button, you fall back down imediatly.

Yeah, so the players can control their jump height.
