I had a blast last time. Last time I coded it completely from scratch without reusing anything also. I was literally still working on basic mechanics an hour before submission lol. But its about challenging yourself. When you submit make sure to post a link so I can go play your game. I will do the same.

Horrible lol, the 45 minutes I spent on the LD42 was the last time I have done any programming....and most of that time was spent on really bad pixel art.
I have been reading through your source code and learning how to work with files, since I don't have much experience with that stuff yet.
I will be attacking my collision editor asap, and I have decided that I much prefer to use an arbitrary map editor so I won't deal with tiles whatsoever, only images.

I took the family pasture camping yesterday, and after the fire and scary stories we played a quick game of heroes quest, I loved that game a few years ago, I enjoyed it last year, but this time the little annoyances were getting to me. So I have decided that I am putting my "idea" on the backburner as doing all this stuff my own framework and all is alot for someone like me, although I do enjoy the challenge and learning, I am going to tackle a remake of heroes quest! With hotseat play and all that, and I will add the things that will modernize it and make it a fun family game again haha!

So I have my point editor almost done, the saving and then parsing my .entity files is proving very interesting, good thing you shared your source it's proving invaluable.
