The Online (Prototype) Action Game Generator (1.3 beta)

Just fill in the form to create an action game online! The form will be translated to a parameter file which is read by the JGame SimpleGeneratedGame applet.

Notes
Game will be 640x480, 35fps, with 40x30 tiles, 16x16 pixels each.
(this is fixed, maybe configurable in later version)
Distances are in pixels, speeds in pixels/frame.
The game has levels, but levels are not progressively difficult yet.
When you leave a field blank, a "sensible" default value will be used.
