PLANNED FOR DEMO 2 (v0.6.xx):
- Moving enemies
- iFrame capabilities (I’m not telling where they will be used.)
- Better water physics
- Support for external files (game modding)
- Puzzle mechanics (levers, locked doors, etc.)
- Adding 1-3, 1-4, 2-1, and unlockable levels, Creeper Mines 1 through 3 (at LEAST.)
Demo 2 will come out in a week or two.

Hi! I think you could really use a modular engine! (in Wick)
It makes life easier:
- Instead of changing hundreds of coins to the new model, keep them in a script that connects them all.
- Allows addon-based mods, which could also be linked to maps.
It’s easier for testing:
- You can test each feature to make sure that they work.

I think using a modular engine could be a great idea! Making more collectables in singular levels has been a complete PAIN to do.
Though, can you explain how to do that? I’m fairly new to text based coding, got out of using Scratch back in Febuary.

hello, I have some feedback. first I would like to say that this is really generic like one of the platformers you would see on scratch, second the jump sound being the only sound and it being so annoying is not really good, also I recommend changing the the art for levels because it is still the same art from the platformer engine you got it from by @BaronAWC, lastly please add wasd. none of this is me being rude but trying to help you. also good for you going away from block code to normal code 
most people who start at block don’t move on to normal code

OK, I’m currently making new assets and editing existing ones to personalise the game for Demo 2!
-
The boing sound does get annoying after a while, and logs the console that it has started, so that takes up a lot of RAM if you jump enough, slowing down the game.
-
WASD has been in my mind for a while since I’m personally getting tired of using my right hand to test the game.
-
I’m also working to make music in the game, and every individual level, such as if you stay on the title screen (in 0.5.X) long enough to hear the extremely bad “music” that’s there, and the placeholder SRB2 level complete sound when you beat a level.
-
I’m also writing out a story that happens during the game. 1-1 and 1-2 have little to nothing that has to do with it. Worlds 2 and 3 do, and the secret level pack, Creeper Mines.
I hope that answers your feedback, @FroggyWadd!

the Demo 2 beta is almost finished! It will be out in a few hours.
WHAT'S NEW!!!
-
Creeper Mines has been made, it has a COMPLETELY different playstyle than the normal game.
-
1-3 has been developed, and 1-2 had been revamped.
-
Not only can you now go in fullscreen like you could in Demo 1 0.5.X, you can also change the game’s FPS to your liking as an optimization attempt!
-
Added Secrets menu, that’s how you access Creeper Mines
-
Game save files!
You can save your game for if I make another build of the game and you don’t want to play the game all over again! Save files for Demo 2 and further builds will be backwards AND forwards compatible. -
Added new textures and assets, such as locked doors, levers, sewage covers, (WHAT now?) regular doors, villagers, creepers, lava, and better water.
-
There’s now a story to go with the game! Find out more when you play it.
-
Dialogue. Squareey/the player yaps A LOT in 1-1, 1-3, and Creeper Mines 1.
Yup. Demo 2 will be the biggest TBGE build yet. Though, should I change the name of the game? Maybe “The Best Game Ever” is too generic.

Very exciting, I love the changes that are coming for the preview and the fact of a storyline :D
As for the name, I think it should be change for the same reason as you think, I will give ideas when I have some :)

In the start menu, the buttons are making connections every tick. The onEvent function is used on load, or default.

… What did I just debug? The game popped up the cookie blocker!
This game is NOT WORKING!
It seems like several parts of code are broken due to glitches?
The #% is so severely broken, it causes hundreds of errors.
It seems that project is also broken.
I think this foundation is COOKED.
