Leave the values blank if you are not using Admob. Modification Game Code All the game logic is under project SuperPlatformer. However code that regarding Android is under SuperPlatformer-Android. For example loading, hiding and showing ads are in that project. Assets Sounds and fonts Sound and fonts are located under Android projects, go to assets folder. There are fonts and sounds folder. Replace anything you want to change. But please take a note, many texts in the game are images, You may also change the image text. Follow the next steps. Images The game is using pack images, it means many images packed into a large image. The GPU will work faster using this technique. See the packed images under folder assets/images in Android project. To change that packed image, follow these steps
  • Using file explorer, open SuperPlatformer/raw_images
  • That folder contains all individual images before it will be packed
  • Replace the image with your new image (png)
  • Run “packer.java” in SuperPlatformer/src/com.boontaran.games.superplatformer/Packer.java
  • Check the pack images under Android project
  • If your new images are added into the pack, congratulation, you have successfully pack the images
  • Refresh the desktop project and launch the desktop game, the game should using the new images now
  • Attention!!.. if you intend to change the project name, you must edit the Packer.java to point the new location TexturePacker.process(settings, "raw_images", "../SuperPlatformerAndroid/assets/images", "pack"); Edit The Level Level was designed using Tiled Map Editor, you can get it for free at http://www.mapeditor.org/ Open the TMX files under Android project in folder assets/tiled Each TMX consists of some layers, there are Object layer and Tile layer. Tile Layer is where the you design the level view, while Object layer is represent the game objects Here is the Object layer naming : Note : All object in object layers are a rectangle object fixed The object will be converted to the fix platform where the player and enemy walk brick The object will be converted to brick that can be destroyed by hero entity Here is the all game item, hero, enemy, coin, flag, etc.... The objects classified by the name Before perform any editing, I suggest to play around with this program to make it familiar. If you found an error after modify the TMX here is checklist to troubleshot
  • Make sure you put the object (rectangle) into the correct layer.
  • The fixed objects can overlap each other, but entity and brick should not To edit the tile, replace the tiled1.png with your png, it should be 64x64 grid Add New Level Here is the steps if you want to make a new level and insert it into the game
  • Create a new TMX file, name it level5.tmx
  • Make sure you have add 'hero' object and 'flag' object in entity layer
  • Goto eclipse, right click on SuperPlatformer/src/com.boontaran.games.superplatformer.levels
  • Select “new → class”
  • Name it Level6 extend Level class, see the other Level class for the example 6.
  • Open LevelMap.java to register the level icon (SuperPlatformer/src/com.boontaran.games.superplatformer.screens/LevelMap.java)
  • Go to line ~45 , I have put instruction there
  • Open SuperPlatformer.java (SuperPlatformer/src/com.boontaran.games.superplatformer/SuperPlatformer.java)
