(V2 is out) Flip Man - BETA
Alright, this is another shot at trying to encourage other people to use GMPhysics. The first time I actually tryed making something on my own without copying the GMPhysics Examples, this is what I came up with.
This is Flip Man, you control a character with the mouse to make him do whatever you want.
This game has a very harsh learning curve, so don't give up when your just starting out.
I would say this game is pretty fun. You just have to mess with it for a while.
Feedback is highly appreciated for what to do in the next BETA or even the game.

<B>Edit</B>: K, the new dlls are included and i think you will all like the new style, the diving is still being worked on, so don't expect much from that.

That...was awesome! You seriously need to finish this, Flip Man could be the next Line Rider if you work at it!

9/10, just add some features and work on the graphics a bit.

@drhowell440: srry, for some reason it won't let me upload files, it takes like 5 minutes to get my prgress bar full, then it doesn't do anything. idk why.

thnx for all of the positive comments on this, never expected everyone to like it this much, i don't go much by my judgement of the game anymore, expecially after Stick Dive PRO, i thought that was fun, but nobody knew how to do anything and most people didn't like it.


I'm currently working on the following for the next BETA:

-Freestyle ski-jumping**
-Trampolining**
-Trampolining while wearing skis
-Just jumping around for practice*
-Just jumping around with skis*
-Maybe some diving, idk, GMPhysics does support water so probably
-Survival, blocks move around, no floor, stay in as long as you can.
-Freefall tricks
-Human cannonball

* Already done, but not being released until everything else is too.
** Currently being experimented with.

It's going to be a while before I get it out, but swim season just ended, so I'll have a lot more time on my hands to work on it. If anyone else has any suggestions that are somewhat reasonable, I just might include them in this.

Um...Well, i think the game was cool and an interesting concept. But maybe add some gameplay to it. 8/10

That was pretty nifty; but as the help file says, the learning curve was quite harsh.
Maybe you should add some tips or stratagies to the help file...Different methods to getting your guy up (IE: moving the mouse up and down really quickly) and stuff like that.

Sorry all you other Gamemaking ppl... but this... is the FUNNIEST GAME EVER!!! seriously man I had a blast! yeah.. at first I didnt know what to do but as soon as I read that it is mouse controlled I was well on my way making crazy jumps and shit! I could even do the worm!! hell this was cool! you should like make a way to control the arms or something... so you can stand on them n' shit! and do even cooler tricks! Some movements where actualy pretty realistic.. like the getting up jump when laying on your back (I know because I can) anyway completed game? think this is a WIP cuz it does need some work but Ill give you a 10/10 anyway because I had a great time playing this!

Is there some DLL I'm supposed to have, other than GMPhysics (unless it's been updated, then I'd need that)?

It says 'ERROR in action number 1 of Create Event for object obj_control: Error defining an external function' when I click Start

It would help if you included any DLL's required in the zip >_>

No rating yet, as I haven't been able to play it

Awesome, an update.

Lol, I got my skis stuck in the ground. It was kinda funny.

It was impossible to jump, am i missing something?

try turning skis on in the options, its easier, no skis is pretty hard, with the massive amount of time I've spent playing this, I have pretty much mastered everything, so yeah, try turning skis on. It helps you balance.
