The Legend

Confused? Don’t worry, this section explains almost every folder.

META-INF – Where some stuff is kept. Don’t change everything in this folder, it may break your game.

res – Where other resources are kept.

Now, what’s kept in the assets folder:

Fonts – Fonts for the game. It’s highly recommended that you don’t change anything in here.

Graphics – Textures for the game. Level files are also kept here.

Music – Various music for the game.

Particles – Particle files.

Physics – Level files are kept here.

Sounds – Sound effects for the game.

2. Navigate to assets, then Graphics –> GraphicsMedium.

3. Open the file you want to edit.

4. Modify the image in any way you like!

5. Save the image as a .png.

Changing the sounds in the game is easy as changing the textures. For this, you’ll need a sound editor like Audacity.

1. Open your sound editor.

2. Import the sound you want to edit.

3. Modify it in any way you like!

4. Export it as an .ogg file.
