Resolution
Width
I want the player to have enough horizontal space to traverse mid run. Because the game’s default width is 1,280px, I went for a bit over 4 times as much – 5,760px.
Height/Length
I want a map to feel a lot longer than wide. Also, I needed some vertical space for a start line and for a finish line (and “parking” space after it). So I chose about 3 or 4 times as the width – 18,000px
Background
I needed a very basic background for the basic, so I picked a plain green with a simple texture on top.
Markers
- Start line
- Finish line
- Side borders
- Random horizontal lines to help when working on the player proxy’s movement
- Numbers spaced about 100px each, also to help when developin the player proxy’s movemnt
