lemmylemming Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Hi everyone, A few days ago, i read this great document on how Manic Miner's physics work and i tried replicating what i understood in Scratch. I've been adding some features, and while it isn't advanced enough to actually make a full game with it yet, i think it is still worth sharing. 2026-02-12 20-51-03.mp4 Here's a short video demonstrating a small map i've made. I've also attached the project file if anyone wants to see the code. It can be loaded in Scratch, but i'd suggest using TurboWarp instead. (Load the project file by clicking File and then Load from your computer) There's not really much to say about it, i just wanted to show my progress so far 🙂 mini jet set willy(1)(2).sb3 Spider and UncleWan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleWan Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Oh, it's impressive... I once tried to replicate Willy's movements using Scratch, but ended up making a bunch of junk.🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SymbolShift Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Looks like a great start. Getting this working in visual languages can be especially tricky, well done! One user worth checking out is manic986 who rebuilt MM and MM2 using scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmylemming Posted February 13 Author Report Share Posted February 13 I've seen those projects, they are quite impressive! I'm surprised by how accurate they are 🙂 I don't think i'll be able to make something as good as those. In other news, i'm currently working on adding guardians! I have vertical guardians mostly finished so far. SymbolShift 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmylemming Posted February 13 Author Report Share Posted February 13 2026-02-13 16-51-04.mp4 After fixing some code, I got 4 guardians going at once! 🙂 It allows for a lot more, but inputting the guardian data is a bore. I've attached the updated project file, and i also added some short documentation for the guardian format. I forgot to mention, to add guardians to a room, locate the start of the room you want to edit/add guardians to in "mansion guardians" which will always be the line "(room x)+(room y)". The line after that indicates the amount of guardians in that room, which the code uses to copy guardians to memory. If it isn't changed, the new guardians you add won't be copied to memory when the room is loaded. mini jsw guardians update.sb3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
