Started a working on basic platformer where you have party members that follow you throughout the level. My goal of the so far was getting the player controller working and companion cube to follow it. My next problem will be telling my companion when to jump. So far there's a jump box below my floating platforms that tells it to jump. This is a terrible solution, I'm sorry, I hate myself for going this. Going to find a better way next pass.
As the player progress they'll be able to find more companions with different abilities and alternate between then throughout the game. My next goal will be setting up a different abilities for my blocks and a town with NPCs.
