\"\"<\/p>\n

Testing rotating \/ walking block code.. (as seen in many puzzle games)<\/p>\n

Current progress:<\/strong>
\n– Screenshot: Step.1 and Step.2 (going towards right direction)
\n– Can walk one direction..
\n– Need to add smooth movement (now it rotates 90 degrees instantly)<\/p>\n

*This one failed.. not going to fix it
\n(if you want the demo, I can post.. but it only works in 2 directions)<\/p>\n
