Gameplay Mechanic #2: Dashing

The Code:

Game Engine: Stencyl

Gameplay Mechanic #3: Grazing

Input Handler

Dash Handler

This may seen a bit redundant. As using a "Do After" block to handle the cooldown would work fine.

However, the reason I made a special function to handle the cooldown is to prepare for mechanics that dynamically increase or shorten the cooldown, which can’t be done if the system relies solely on the “Do After” block. Building a foundation for a modular cooldown system saves me time in the long run if I decide to implement mechanics that affect a player’s cooldown duration in the future and I wouldn't have to recode the whole system.

How the game checks if the player is grazing is by having an actor constantly teleported onto the player to act as the grazing hitbox

To simulate the effect from the original game, where if you stop grazing, the white shell fades away.
