How does it autosave? Do you use cloud variables?
Every second, it uses cloud variables to save into, and I use a special compiler option in TW to make it work like local storage.
Ohh I didn’t know that option also works for browser games! Just for curiosity, does it store it in a cookie or some VM on itch?
You'll have to ask Garbomuffin, I'm not sure
Ok, thanks anyway. I’ve now implemented the same system and it works fine, do you know if the saved info gets cleared if I upload a new version?
It doesn't so make sure everything is backwards-compatible
Nice short game, found 9 of the rubies, apparently. A shame that u didn't have enough time to add more stuff to Emerald Palace, tho the ruins were fun to traverse.
I also encountered the ruby door glitch earlier, but a site reload fixed it.
Yo.. I just found the level editor.. Please keep it in tho, it's really funny XD
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
issue: at the starting area i bounced into a wall and am now stuck in a never ending green hellscape
Pause the game and select Reset Data
great game, you're always so creative!
A decent little game. Have you considered including a death counter on the final screen?
I was doing great until I gliched through a wall (I'm not sure which one, it was on the lower left-hand side of the screen, probably the first room that had spikes in it). I was coming back towards the exit, and suddenly I'm falling through an endless green void. Even if I reload.
I uploaded a pause menu update that lets you reset your save to play again, I hope this helps!
Idk man... even after searching this temple we STILL dont have any leads on where that emerald palace is!
try hovering over the sign near the avalanche ;)
I know, thats how i learned about this famed emerald palace
I found a bug involving the exit gate! To recreate it, simply have at least 3 rubies collected, go to where the door is, and then go back. Refreshing the browser will fix this issue.
Also, the game keeps saying that I have 3 out of the 8 rubies, even though I collected them all?
I fixed these problems :)
You didn't fix the gate, though.
However, the ruby counter WAS fixed! GG!
Amazing game but how do you get the other jems?
I think it involves finding secret paths!
hm i thought i found all the paths, let me try again
Did you check for slightly different tiles?
@Wiseguy1234 There is a bug that I am working on to fix where it does not show the correct number of rubies at the end
which ones are you missing?
basically always , when a gem isnt obviously accessible, there are fake walls involved
the one that is at the top, seemingly out of reach
the one you see in the very first room?
you gotta fall through a fake wall, in an area directly above.
