First Steps

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for checking out the launch of Chunky King.  This game is being developed as an example of making a game that is inspired by a professional game.  In my case, I am making a game that is a clone of Donkey Kong.  This is meant to be an exercise in developing skill, not as something sellable.  I am looking forward to developing my skills during this project.

To start off, I have created the mouse object.  I have not added any artwork, so the capsule shape is a placeholder.  I've got some boiler plate stuff in place (basic player controls, walking left and right and jumping.) The big thing that I got added here was ladders.  I used a combination of colliders and triggers to create a ladder that you can go up and down.  Eventually, I would like to have the bomb hazards have the ability to slide down these ladders as well.

The thing that I am really excited about for this game is I have purchased hardware to make an arcade cabinet.  Eventually this should be a full arcade machine!
