      I do wish pushing a box out of itself made an infinite line of the same box like you'd intuit would happen from looking at it, rather than arbitrarily stepping in and saying nah actually it just take you to bad room where you can sit and think about what you've done
      The mechanics of having an infinite identical line of yourself and other boxes in a void would be really interesting mechanically

    • @MythicTF2
      @MythicTF2 2 роки тому +9

      ​@@doomse150 It certainly can be. Depending on how the level is stored, it very well could be EXACTLY how its stored internally. The simplest way to store a level in a 2D game like this is to use an array.
      Like this
      Level1 =
      {
      "$$$$$$$",
      "$ # $ $",
      "$ $ ",
      "$b 2 $",
      "$$$$$ $",
      }
      Then you go through your array and for every char in your string, you draw it to your screen with your specific x, y position with its designated graphic.
      I'm sure it's not stored like that but its fun that it can be!

    • @doomse150
      @doomse150 2 роки тому +2

      @@MythicTF2 You could use that text based representation for storing levels in a file on disk (even though I would go for a more standardized format like nested json or xml, so that I don't have to write and debug a custom parser), but use certainly wouldn't (or at least shouldn't) use it for storing the game in memory while running the game (because that would e.g. require rewriting the string for every move). Object oriented programming is a thing for a good reason.

    I finished the video and moved on already but had to come back because I just thought of something
    I think the reason you can’t push stuff into levels when you’re in space/void, is because you wouldn’t have anything to push that box or level against. There’s a visual square but that’s just to keep things neat. Just imagine if the boundary didn’t exist, you would just push the boxes for ever and not ouch them into each other

    I played a game similar to this on Scratch, it was named “Paraboxical” and instead of going inside boxes to enter new sections, the box is the level you are already in. So if you go into the top of the box, you will appear at the top of the level. If you pushed the box out of the level, you would get a “parabox” and would have to reset
