Pausing the game while transitioning to another room causes this script error:
You also can roll diagonally while pressing down, but you can't roll diagonally pressing up.
Hey so I just bought this for $10 and only got the player walking in a black background and was wondering if and when there will be full access to the full source code. Thank you
The source code will be added episode by episode as they release. You won't have to pay again, but it's not out yet.
Oh okay sorry, Thank you!

Noted! Thank you!
Just finished it master Shaun. Not to brag but I only Activated my Stickey Keys about 10 times :) . Another great tutorial awaits.
