# Example Doodads

This repository includes some example doodads for Sketchy Maze.
You can learn from their scripts or use them as a base for your
own custom doodads.

![Warp Door](warp-door/door-1.png) ![Character](character/stand-right.png) ![Anvil](anvil/anvil.png)

All of these doodads are built from PNG images using the
`doodad` program that comes with the game. Check your guidebook
for information where you might find this program. The doodad
files are constructed by the `doodad` tool so it should be
somewhere on your `$PATH`. See the `build.sh` script in each
example for the doodad commands used.

* [**Playable Character**](character/): making your own character
  with animations that follow your keypresses, like the
  built-in creatures.
* [**Warp Door**](warp-door/): create your own compatible Warp
  Door that you can link to the built-in doors.
* [**Anvil**](anvil/): the harmless doodad that becomes dangerous
  while falling.

To do:

* **State Doodads**: create your own "blue" and "orange" boolean
  state doodad that follows along with the rest.
