GG Max - No way to set player lives amount #2484

Open Tum1370 opened 2 years ago

Tum1370 commented 2 years ago

Could you please add a way so we can set the amount of lives the player has. Some games require 1 life, but health pick ups. Other games maybe has 1 life and health regen. Other games maybe has several / infinite lives, but uses checkpoints.

Really we should have all these options open for us to select.

I think a good way rather than set lives might be to use the checkpoints. Provided you reach it it will respawn there once ... then on to the next. If you reach the second and die after you respawn at the second. If you Die before the next one then thats your lot :) etc

So its still one life but a chance to continue :)

We already had ability to add the amount of lives for a level - not sure on the rational to remove it.

MAX is a game-maker - not a game where the rules are already set.

Yes many games have endless restarts, but it is up to the dev to decide if they want to use that method or have 1 or more lives, and even the ability to add more lives.
