Thank you, once again.
I made the collision box of the kick a little bit bigger (4 pixels), hope this will make it more usable.
To tell you the truth a friend of mine who is playing the game he only uses kicks, I am doing the same when I play. He never mentioned anything, but I had seen a video online where the player had problems with it too.
I also can't understand the problem with jumping. Are we talking about platforms that are in the same height? If so, I usually use the kick to jump on them. This was something that I had seen and in videos from people who are playing the Bruce Lee game.
1. I am thinking about adding a little bit of story on this game, and probably it will be visible if let idle the main menu. I really dislike the story screens in MD version of the Snow Bros that pop up when you press start for the game. But I will probably add a story after all. A silly one for sure. By the way, the main characters are name Ren and Kyu....
2. You are right, the truck needs a little bit of work on this. On the energy bar, I am not sure. I will probably add something like smoke.
3. Enemies do not give score at all when they die. They give score when they become rollings and when they hit an enemy or a wall. People who want to make a high score have to finish the levels without losing any lives and by not staying without rollings. This will give them the big diamond at the end of the stage.
This is and the reason that enemies become red. When an enemy becomes red, a rolling enemy will turn him to rolling, otherwise he will just damage him. For this reason, it is better to just beat some of the enemies to become red and the power kick an enemy who is going to hit them.
Also, to get the big diamond you do not have to hit all the enemies with one power kick, but you must never remain without rolling enemies until you defeat all the enemies. Some later stages require this.
P.S. I love your photo. Looks like the whole place was setted up just for this game.
Thank you very much.
