[M1] The hero moves through Rusty Creek #26
Description
Outcome
The poncho hero walks, runs, jumps, slides down steep slopes and climbs ladders across Rusty Creek's real collision, with the seven parallax layers, on a preview URL. Movement feels weighty and exact: coyote time, jump buffer, no jitter on slopes, animation that switches without popping.
Scope
| In this milestone | Not in this milestone |
|---|---|
| Walk, run, variable jump | Ledge pull-up (cut, A14) |
| Hills ≤ 40°, slides > 40° | Glide, double jump (Region 2) |
| One-way platforms, ladders | Combat (M2) |
| Camera and parallax | Wall-jump, dash |
| Collision loader + debug overlay | |
| Rusty Creek collision (3 chunks, both states) | |
| Hero movement sheets | |
| Animation state machine |
Sequence
S6 loader and S7 Rusty Creek annotation start in parallel with S1. S1 → S2; S3 and S4 need S6. S8 sheets start now; S9 needs S8 and the atlas exporter (M0-S4).
Completion criteria
- The full Rusty Creek route (route.json) is walkable on the preview, start to boss gate
- The hero is 80 px tall on the 720 px stage and never sinks into or floats over the ground
- Keyboard and gamepad both work
- All sub-issues closed.
