What is Danger Dennis:

This is a game that is currently being programmed by [VD] Dennis Pauler. It is a conversion for the Amiga of the C64 game "MrRobot and his factory".    Programming is done in C and live on stream at Twitch.tv.   If you are interested in how to realize such a game with C on the Amiga then just follow his Twitch channel!

And that's why I wrote this editor to create levels for the upcoming game and just generate a suitable C code that can be easily integrated.   Just click on Run Game in the picture above to start the editor.

Instructions:

The editor starts in EDIT mode, which is the area where you can build your level. At the bottom of the screen you will find the components of a level.  These can be clicked with the left mouse button and placed in the upper area also with the left mouse button.   You can delete individual parts with the right mouse button.

Choose the platforms in different colors or even certain parts with which the game character is moved by itself across the screen, such as roller belts.  It is important that you also place the player and the exit.   The exit is a door that opens when all the pills in the floor have been collected. With this the level is finally finished.

Test your level:

When you are finished creating the level you can test it by clicking on TEST in the bottom right corner, then the game will start in game mode and you can play the game normally. Run over all the platforms and collect all the pills from the floor to unlock the door.  If you enter the door or die then the game is over and you will back to EDIT mode.

If you are happy with your level then you can click in EDIT mode on SCRIPT then a screen opens in which you can see the C code.  You can then copy and paste it somewhere where it can be processed further.

Controls:

The character can be controlled normally with the cursor keys or a joypad.   You can jump with the space bar, but you can't control the jump, just like in the original game. A started jump flies in the corresponding direction until the player has solid ground under his feet again.

If you run over the bombs, they explode after a second, so you should not stop there.  The treadmills move the player in the indicated direction.

Ladders work exactly as you would expect ladders to work, you can climb up or down them.   The slide down tiles cause the player to slide down them quickly.   

The player can collect shields that protect him from monsters.
