Any suggestions are welcome :)

Platformers own, that's why.

i hooked up my PS3 controller to my comp just to see how xpadder worked(being a geek and all i just had to) and this game is 25X funner(ya it's not a word so what?) with the controller, and idk why. It just is.(big period) :D

i have a question, about how you guys feel about a few things.

Should the game have a learning curve, or just start out hard? s
Should the game even get hard?
Should i have a story line?
Health bar, or textNumber(like metroid)?
And how does this look for an enemy? I allready have him coded and he works awesomely :D
He looks small but with the game in full screen you can see him easily :)

and nice sprite there
as for the health...

It is nice. I think you should study pyro's collision system and camera--it is good for platformers like this. I also think GE could benefit a lot from some really finished games. Good luck!
