Mapping out Physics for my stick-figure Mario: 

Referring back to previous games to refresh on: speed, gravity, distance, etc. to see how they apply to movements Mario need to make. 

In the am, will work on writing code to make Mario move within the room.

Watched and played with video game. Researched the strategy of game to understand the ins and outs. Took screenshot of startup that loads prior to beginning world 1-1. I have questions about the initial process in recreating this. 

I did read up on a little about side-scrolling video games.

Made progress yet still far away from functional! 

Couldn't master the coding of ensuring the power bar and direction bar are initiated before ball is shot by player. 

Several things needed to be added. 

12apr19

tasks completed: 

added sprites to game room

completed Power bar for shot

began arch bar project and path

tasks left: 

Connect obj_ball to valPower in PowerVal step event. Create sense of direction[distance] using obj_DistBar.
paths (create path with the object. reverse it.)
add gravity once shot it released
determine if basket is made
add graphics

Hannale just showed me how to splice the larger png into smaller ones for sprite conversion.

Found png images for player characters. Still need to refresh on how to split the larger images down into smaller chunks. 

Currently working on: 

1. Proper fonts for startup room (minimal
2. Creating sprite for player. 
3. Create sprite for player dribble. 

I like your side view! I want to simulate your style here. @rwich did you use tile layers?

today added sprites for ball + rim

added draw event for title screen text.

needs: 

player sprite (pixel or resource)

vk_enter check for room transition

LOTS MORE. will get to it. 

A basic 2D  games simulating a basketball player shooting a free throw using components of arch and power. Image depicts type of graphics I'd like to use.
