Zelda Widget

This is my first widget.

- Custom Grid based movement
- Two types of scrolling ("Zelda" or "Knytt")
- Built in collision detection
- A built in sword attack (can be turned off)

Be sure to check the included example. Read the README.txt which explains how to use the object before playing with settings... the widget will break quite easily if you don't know what you're doing. :)

//quick edit//
When the object was placed outside the frame on start, there would be a scroll until the frame met up with the object... this bug is squashed - dead.

Lol nice, I stabbed Ric but he didn't die.

It sounds amazing! I'll try it.

Zelda wasn't grid based. Now everyone stop posting interesting things. I have to get up in 4 hours and my bed is calling my name.

The first Zelda was grid based. Nice example, as I said before. :)

The first zelda wasn't grid based! I played it last night!

I think it makes no difference if Zelda was grid based or not. This is a good example and thanks mojofltr.

Your bed can talk? WOW! You must really be tired!

I'm attaching my "Stupid Enemy Widget"

Again, this is grid based, so it should work fine in a game partnered with my Zelda Widget. I call it "stupid" because it does not seek out the player or have any real destination. It will, however, move through a maze of obstacle objects. I didn't write up any documentation, but it should be pretty easy to figure out if you have read the docs with my Zelda Widget.

I'm also attaching a newer version of the Zelda example... that uses the Stupid Enemy Widget. It also shows the beginning of a Zelda-like pause/inventory screen (push spacebar). I've been too lazy to add back in enemy/player collisions, but it would be a snap to someone more motivated. :P

Thanks mojo, that enemy widget is exactly what I needed!

I'm glad it helped someone. I'd like to see what you've done with it when you're finished. ;)
