possible i still may have a nice idea due fact of the ONLY 2 KEY rulez... Dont close/end your game when the player die.. what about something like this:

Code: [Select]
[AnyKey1] == like [Cursor left] or any other key
[AnyKey2] == like [Cursor right] or any other key

Now you have ofcourse two ways to move your object(s)...
But what about exit the game, as its forbidden to use a third key like "Escape] afaik...
So here is my simple idea to fit to the compo rulez and let the user exit the game, when the user wish it.

Code: [Select]
[AnyKey1] == like [Cursor left] or any other key
[AnyKey2] == like [Cursor right] or any other key

[AnyKey1] + [AnyKey2] == Close/Exit program (without need to check for ESCAPE)

But at least you should know and remember, you can Close/exit a program with pressing [Alt + F4] to use the [AnyKey1 + AnyKey2] combination for something else in your game(s).  Due fact of the [Alt + F4] thing you can do something like this:

Code: [Select]
[AnyKey1] == like [CursorKey1] or any other key to move left   / up
[AnyKey2] == like [CursorKey2] or any other key to move right / down

[AnyKey1] + [AnyKey2] == to jump player, to shoot, something like ENTER (accept)

Good luck guys.

I've already said to one member it's fine to use the Escape key to exit the game.  The point is to use only 2 keys to control the gameplay.

@jim
maybe i explained it a bit to silly... but i really tried to explain how to use only 2 keys and how they could be used (like pressing both keys to simulate something like pressing just only escape and so on ^^)
