Nice game engine! The only thing that bothers me a bit are the controls. Don't know if it's possible in Flash, but could you make left mouse button shoot, scroll toggle between weapons; space jump? It feels like that's the natural way of controlling a character. Either that, or movement with arrow buttons and action buttons on the left side of the keyboard.
AS2 programmer (in progress), decent at drawing things as well as animating, not really good at writing, and stuff. Lots of stuff. Insert more stuff here. One game in the works, need some help here and there, mostly with level design and enemy AI.

Yeah, the controls definitely are NOT final, it's just a setup that I'm used to (what with controllers having the Dpad or left thumbstick controlling movement most of the time). Once all's said and done, I'll swap the sides so it seems a little more natural. Thing other thing with the controls is that I wanted the game to play like Contra 3 and Contra Hard Corps (and a little bit of Metal Slug, but that'll be down the road), so the mouse aim would kind of kill that vibe. :)
(Plus I'm lazy. :D)

Heheh, thanks dude! It's on its way... I'm hoping that by the time I finish, not many people will believe that one self-taught guy put it all together. :D
