-buttons/trap components not yet worked on
-the level editor will allow you to edit block properties creating any type of object you can imagine!

Story Ideas! (these are from me to generally inspire you guys, Mainly gamma ;D)
[spoiler]-your father left when you were young, he wrote his will early if in some case he didn't return, when you come of age you are read his will.
-"Child, I have left on a journey to adventure for the keep of [you guys name it] to leave a legacy behind for the family, if I do not return come and make something of us. Our future generations need a story to be proud of."
-there is a note on the letter's outside
-"do not give this to my child until [he/she] has a child of [his/her] own"
-Me and faxxy are still developing the story behind all of this trying to give the player a serious reason to platform![/spoiler]
Nothing fit into the other categories? Tell me to add 'em here!
[spoiler]-nostalgia will be great within this one :D
-tell me stuff to put here
-You guys will have access to the level editor used to build the game! --original idea from Dylanater11--[/spoiler]
Anything you post below will possibly be used in the main storyline of the game! If you have a sick idea for a custom dungeon that you want in the main game, tell us! If you want to wait till you can make it yourself, by all means wait! We want to see your contributions on whatever site we designate for map-packs when we get there!
