SSP
From Platinum Arts Sandbox Free 3D Game Maker
SSP mode, short for Side-scrolling platformer, is Sandbox's mode for creating side-scroller games, such as the original Mario games. It is currently under development, but is not being focused on, with RPG mode being the main focus at the current moment. There is currently no scripting for SSP mode, unlike FPS and RPG.
the features of SSP mode include:
- side-scroller playing
- pickups, such as magnetic armor, health bananas and money
- pivot points, for different directions
- checkpoints
- boxes that contain things
- enemies
- jumppads and teleporters
- moving platforms and elevators
There will be a SSP game featuring the levels of Super Mario Bros (original game for Nintendo NES). The platforms and blocks are 3D and the background is 2D. The game has the feel of the original game. It will be launched in the coming months. The developers aren't going to say too much at this point of time otherwise it isn't a surprise.
