(but not as much code as if I'd included the json library, and the parsing happens outside of the game code)

Safe travels! Oh, to go back to the days of turning on a game and not having to sit through updates.

Wow, no, that's awesome. I wonder if that's a UK vs US thing... you guys have "Jingle bells, Batman smells" over there?

Nic, you can totally run with that. Would love to see that game, especially if he hops into a taxi at the end of each level!

I agreed with you this morning, but I am finding some shortcuts!

So: Threw an armature in there (just drew lines from the hips to where I thought the feet should be in every frame) and warped the legs (sloppily). Walking left to right will obviously be trickier, but I figure he'll go kinda 3/4-view ish

I tried to make a walk animation and somehow failed so hard that I broke his leg in the idle animation. #gamedev #indiegamedev
