I had no idea how to fix it despite trying again and again, and this eventually made me lose hope of recovering it. My will to continue making projects was sapped almost entirely because our best project had been ruined, and a few months later I quietly lapsed into inactivity. Fast forward to today: A chat with @skyset about STAR II's scrolling engine made me think of ACWNP2, and I realised I suddenly had the motivation to try and look into the problem again after not wanting to touch it for so long due to the pain I went through while failing to fix it so many times. Turns out that I managed to fix pretty much all the prominent bugs in under an hour (most of them were related to the player's x/y positioning due to the 3.0 update shifting the level hitboxes). Having taken so long to finally fix it, you could say that this is sort of a Pyrrhic victory, but I've fixed our best project and nothing else really matters as much to me. It's such a relief after so long, it really is." to @zeldatransformed: you are the best and most committed person I've ever had the privilege of working with and that still holds true today. i'm so happy to have fixed our ~6 months of work today. keep being the amazing person & artist you are!! ₊˚ˑ not forgetting @MagicBoxStudio, who tried her best to fix this project by herself (there were a few bugs remaining sadly): I appreciate your efforts beyond what I can say. from both of us, thank you so much. ♡ .˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠ ⟢ 02.01.2019 (the release of Scratch 3.0) "This project doesn't work properly anymore." .˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠ ⟢ 20.12.2018 (version 1.0; initial share date) "After 6 months of planning, drawing and coding it's finally done. The best project I've ever worked on as well as the best one on my account. Of course, this game would've never been possible without zeldatransfOwOrmed so thank you so much for doing this with me!! I really appreciate you taking the time to finish this big game together with me :) While creating this game, we ran into multiple issues. At one point Scratch would crash everytime I ran the game which forced me to finish some parts in the offline editor. The sheer length of the game also made it time-consuming and hard to test. However, it's finished now, exactly 3 years after I shared my first project on this account (Auralyst), which was actually entirely a coincidence. It couldn't be more fitting though, and I'm really happy to present our best game, A City With No People 2." .˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠.˙٠ ⟢ Mirror Mirror (ACWNP Animation by Zelda) https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/195384998 ⟢ A City With No People 1 (by me) https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/226846114 ⟢ A City With No People 2 Trailer (by me) https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/243064564/ ⟢ Zelda's ACWNP2 (duplicate version of this project) https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/272625399/ ⟢ @MagicBoxStudio's v1.0 bugfix attempt https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/372329780/ ✨ — credits .˙٠ ⟢ programming & end art: @Chirple ⟢ visuals & thumbnail: @zeldatransformed ⟢ physics/scrolling engine: @griffpatch ⟢ story adapted from the manga A City With No People http://www.animeyume.com/chobits/chobook.html ♫ Jeff Williams – Mirror Mirror (Nightcore) ♫ Teo / Omoi (ft.
