I wasn't really thinking about the technical side more the gameplay but that certainly has value. http://higherorderfun.com/blog/2012/05/20/the-guide-to-implementing-2d-platformers/ ^ Things like that for example. (thanks to razorb) I could link dump all day. (gameplay discussion like;) [ame="…

My biggest regret is not shattering the ice into little pieces at the end... but such is life :) Here is my final entry: Final Update#05: * Added Buildup + Release * Impact polish * Added tiny snow splats *…
