Spent a day an a bit on it, the idea is there, and it has potential. But I think its too clunky and possibly a bit too dull; might just be my implementation. There could be infinite ways to spruce it up though.

10 nostalgia points to anyone who can name the game I blatantly stole the sprites from.

Known Bugs:
- flixel collisions are weird
- only 1 enemy type
- you cannot restart
- ladders don't work
- spikes don't work
- various other things are slightly off, it was meant to be a hack job I swear

Controls: Arrows, Z, X, Enter

not bad.

yeah the collisions are a bit weird.

I would change the order the game runs though...
How I imagined the game to run (and how I did it in my small take on it), was:
- 1st player runs through the map
- 1st player then puts down a map piece to hinder the 2nd player
- 2nd player then runs through the map
- 2nd player then puts down a map piece
- back to 1st player

Interesting. Odd about the collisions. I'm pretty sure the sprites are from Jetpack though

I think the idea works, it needs a lot of iteration to figure out how to bring out the best bits of it though.

Not sure if anyone saw this, but it reminded me of this game idea.
