      This is what I've been working on recently. Amusingly it started off as a challenge, can I do a platform and ladders game, then it turned into a game along the lines of Burgertime but then I realised that no,I cannot do ladders as I could not fix all the bugs and get them working.

      Then I thought about other ways of moving from platform to platform, my first idea being teleports, which is dead easy to do but for some reason my teleports then transformed into lifts!

      Eventually a game idea formed, still 'loosely' around the Burgertime theme, but instead of walking over burgers to move them to the bottom of the screen you walk over gold coins as you attempt to rob the bank!

      Here is a video showing it as-is at the moment, but it'll give you the idea.

      WARNING! I'm not sure how loud it is, beware!

        Love it. That car driving in at the bottom,and the guy grabbing the gold, the elevator noise, the screen, when you are caught. Cant stop watching that teasing video. I usually have hardtimes to find the perfect matching FXs: did you do some of them with playNote()?

            Nope, playnote is over my head, I just can't use it really. all the sound effects are the ones that come with fuze (but I found some were better if I altered the playing speed)

                  @SteveZX81 Excellent stuff. It's like a cross between Burger Time and Lock'n' Chase also by Data East.

                    Thanks. Lock'n'Chase, a hugely underrated game that really overshadowed by other games released at the same time.

                      Coins dropped now stun the coppers for a short time. (might need to make it a bit longer tbh)

                                That looks fun! It reminds me (in a good way!) of Elevator Action. I look forward to playing it when shared!

                                          @SteveZX81 Aww. That will definitely not elevate my spirits if that happens.
