The starting point in Terrain

One of the more overt demo games to come with Game-Maker. Almost a pseudo-sequel to Sample; the same character and monsters, and the same terrain. The only difference is the actual map. I don't think there's an object to this game, though it takes a while to tell the difference.

The object is to demonstrate how background blocks are used to paint a map, and to show how all of the qualities demonstrated in Tutor work in practice.

Notes:

  • Unlike Sample, you now can see the sky.
  • The Book of Knowledge is just sitting there, near the start.
  • The world loops horizontally, but the sky at the top and the perspective maze at the bottom keep things contained.
