• Should I make the jump more floaty as suggested before?
• If its not going to be in flash, what's it going to be in?
• Do I need to make more sprite animations for the Main charc?
• I'm hungry.
• I'm idea dead on more enemies, but just three isn't enough.  Ideas?
• Is there anything I should know about the elements of sprite making I should know?
• I have more questions, but I can't remember what they are.
  

1. Please post a water animation that you've made, even if you don't like it, so that we have something to work with (I think I have an idea of how it could look, also).
2. I dig these tiles. Are the two sets of colour for two 'levels' or did you want the colours to switch at some point midway, or were you unsure of which to use? (if I may suggest: one set would look great being the 'second layer' for the other, which means it looks like it's behind your character when he walks in front, but also looks close enough that you can land on it from a jump.)
3. Things to add to the tileset would be (1.) a 'midground' layer, which I imagine as some interesting hill shapes (as in Super Mario World) that would scroll behind the main tiles. They would have to use bluer colours to look like they were farther into the distance than the main tiles. Or (2.) some 'foreground objects' which might include the typical flowers, rocks, and trees, but with a great 'roboty' look like you have going here, almost anything from discarded boom boxes to candy-filled vending machines might work! And (3.) collectible objects, which can be typical rings and coins and candy bars, but - again - with your cool theme could be just about anything from CDs to loose gears! You need only pick one of these at a time, if any.
4. I definitely like a floaty jump, for its precision landing (I always played the Princess in SMB2 - heh) but with good physics I also like a more standard jump (as in the superb Sonic the Hedgehog 1). I would start with what you would instinctively prefer, and if it matches the gameplay you like, and fits with (for example) how quickly the screen moves and how fast you can walk/run then it'll be fine. It's all about 'feel' and comes out in play testing, so not a lot of worry has to go into it beforehand.
5. Ah, 'the medium is the message'! When it comes to ease of use, and speed of 'rapid prototyping' (which is what I call it when you can throw together a demo engine in a single sitting, with all the underpinnings (such as controller objects, and graphics card calls) having auto settings so that all you have to worry about is the game - though you can tweak under the hood if you want) I would use a programming environment like 'Game Maker', since I'm familiar with its extensive library of DLLs, and its scripting language. It can create a stand-alone executable that anyone can download and play (with Windows XP/Vista, and soon, Macintosh).
6. More animations never hurt, and you should definitely make some if you want to anyway, but if you don't already have anything in mind, you don't have to worry because any that are really needed would be obvious as a game engine is being put together.
7. Hey, I'm hungry, too. Have you ever tried pancakes with butter, cinnamon, and honey? Mmm....
8. Three enemies is about enough for a level (and for the sake of ease, only one level really needs to be developed at a time) and more can come whenever you think of them. What's important is that enemies have unique ways of being dealt with (an easy example is that if a standard enemy is vanquished by jumping on its head, then another enemy can have a spiked head, which forces a different attack strategy, such as hitting it with a hammer). But if I was to just throw out some ideas right now, I'd suggest a bouncing type enemy (ball shaped, like a rolled-up pill bug, or a grumpy grenade bot) or a snake type, or even a walking trash compacter with gnashing teeth and 'grabby' hands. The sky's the limit, they say!
9. I'm not a big sprite expert (yet - bwu ha ha!) but I think you're doing just fine - any issues that come up can be dealt with as they arise, and nothing you've done so far couldn't easily plug right into Game Maker.
10. Ehh...what wuz we talkin about again?

1. I'll work post water stuff later.
   
2. Levels/worlds  Working on fixing the tiles, I'm changing the dimensions (480x320) and  stuff too.    Gears = Points/Wrench screw nut = heal
3. Working on it
4. Working on it
5. How complex can you get the game to be with that program?
6. Okay.  I think I need a 'damaged/hurt' sprite
   
7. Nope, I might
8. New stuff

• Spikey guy: Walk: Walk 2:   (1st one is .06 2nd is .04  Which one is better?)
  
• Bouncy enemy:

1. There are two squarish hills (one has gears, the other has a spikedog) that might benefit if they had one of those alternate tileset colours - to help cue the brain's expectation that you can walk in front, and that their tops are a different level.
2. What did you think about my idea from my last #6? If you're not sure, but you have the time, could you mock up a small GIF that has three or four of your bolts in a row, with all but the last one 'full' of screwed-on nuts? You might have to make the bolts slightly longer for up to three nuts each to fit. That way I will be able to tell if I actually like it, or just think it's a good idea!
3. I like the progress bar idea!
4. I don't think the health bar needs a head of its own - not only will it become obvious what it's for, right away, but the multiple heads will be confusing I think.

1. I see what you mean, but I think people will know they can walk through it.  :/
2. I will try that, but it might look a bit weird...
3. Thank you!  I'll probably make it more detailed later.
4. Will do on the sprite sheet :3  Thanks

Bit belated, but oh my goooosh the bouncy enemy. I could never bring myself to stomp on it because it's just too cute. ;---;  I just sat here staring at it for over a minute. Watching him squish.
