[V1.0a] Knytt Stories DS

Holding the jump key down is supposed to increase the jump height and width, increase acceleration in updrafts, and lengthen gliding distance. I wonder if some of these effects weren't implemented.

hopefully there is something that i or you can do about it

Will take a look at it.

That one is actually the source of certain problems  .

And the fact that I can't get any further on "A Knytt In Time". D:

I am fixing that right now... don't despair! Still, if you *really* want to end "A knytt in time", you can copy the save of the DS and play on the PC, and viceversa.

another issue: in "Gorfinhofin - The Storm's Coming" there is a spot (around X=995,Y=1017) where you have to glide with your umbrella through some switching lasers. (no chance to manipulate because no double-jump or climbing ability available there.) while in the windows-version the timing is perfect, on the ds you always hit the laser.

All game-breaking issues (The great race, gaia, a knytt in time, The Storm's Coming) have been solved. Tomorrow night, at Spanish time, will upload the v1.0a to the website.

(On the meantime, this is the nightly build  ).

Thanks! A Knytt in Time works fine for me. However, the bug about the Double Jump after an updraft is still there; it's not that bad, though, as there are very few levels relying on that kind of jump (I only remember a couple, and they're very old).

P.S: after looking at the code, I couldn't figure out what's wrong; it's probably a call to _ds_juni_change() with the 'reset' flag set (ds_juni.c, line 64), since any other function that resets ds_global_juni.inDblJump seems ok.

You are actually right, and the problem is located in the "reset" flag (Thanks!). Sometimes it is embarrassing to look back and see how bad some design decisions were  


Update: OK, v1.0a updated  

So, so thankful to this. Have a  . I have no idea what they do but other people did it so why not.

However there really is one crucial feature that's definitely missing: a restart feature. I don't think the importance of it can be overstated. It's not a huge deal, no, but I use it on almost every level I play. I always want to explore as much as possible, to I usually try to go the "wrong" way when I come to a fork first. I think the best way to do it would be to move map switching to select, and to put a pause menu on start with Restart, Quit to Menu, and maybe something like Music On/Off.

Really great work. My old broken fat gray DS is finally getting some use again. =]

They do nothing. It's just for fun.

I actually did not implement that because I wanted the "go back to main menu" process to be soft and seamless. Anyway, will think on something (besides, there are a couple of bugs that someday I will need to solve  )
