==================

## Demo

[gschier.github.com/platform-pixels](http://gschier.github.com/platform-pixels/)

## Requirements

- Have [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) installed

## Setup

``` bash

$ # cd to root of project

$ npm install

$ npm start

$ # visit http://localhost:5000 in your browser

```

*To get memory stats to work start Google Chrome with the "--enable-memory-info" flag*

## Functionality

This basic 2D platform game was built from scratch using HTML  and Javascript. The basic features include:

- Movement

- Gravity

- Jumping

- Framerate independant movement mechanics

- Collision detection

- Canvas size independent (everything scales properly)

You will find config options for the following scattered throughout the code.

I will make configuration easier eventually. The more advanced features include the following:

- n-jumping (double jump, tripple jump, ...)

- sticking to walls

- time manipulation (slow down, speed up)

## Future Plans

So far this is just a start, here's a list of things I want to do next:

- Sequential level flow

- More trigger types

- A lot more
