Seems to work for me still. Which buttons are you using?

I use 4 actors! They each are controlled using their own “On Update” tabs with similar scripts. Just requires some testing to make sure they’re all following the same orders EXACTLY.

I wrote a little about it with some screenshots here: https://www.reddit.com/r/gbstudio/comments/m2y7xr/boss_problem/

Thanks for sharing! This was fun and also really helpful to see how others play and the issues they run into!

• Looks like spike head birds were still dying when you hit them on a jump from the right angle, but its double KO. I'll see if I can fix that.
• You're right that Mask birds can't be shot, but its only supposed to be immune to eggs from the front. That one in the woods had some weird behavior.
• Unfortunately some of the graphical bugs are just issues with  how GB Studio works with sprites, but when that emote bubble got caught on the screen, you can use Chirp to clear it (that's actually 1/2 the reason the chirp button exists!)
• I liked the problem solving you used on the Boss, but maybe I'll make it more clear that you need to jump on it!
• And finally, spoiler: You DO unlock something if you find all the ? items! Level 2's is really hidden, but if you get all 3 parts there is a secret minigame.

Hi!  Glad you liked it.

So flying is done through the Bounce Player event, and you are correct that it could be used for swimming! Back when 2.0 first released, I wasn't a fan of the B button being jump, but noticed there was no suitable event to replace jumping on A besides bounce. The issue with Bounce is that it isn't actually a jump - without using variables or timers, which end up being janky, you get Flappy Bird style controls. So I shelved it.

Until I realized you could just make the character a bird and make the flying jumps a mechanic, like how Kirby platforming has flight!

There's no engine ejecting required, but I did mess with the properties (available in Beta 5) to adjust gravity, movement velocity, and fall speed to make for a smoother experience.

hi! what are you playing on? mobile devices should have an onscreen gameboy controls. Playing in a browser should be Z to confirm choices.
