Help with Mario's Moves in my Engine Test. - OssieTheOstrich - 04-21-2018
A sort of Engine Test i'm making has the these Keyboard controls (X is Jump, S is Run, and Z is also Jump, Down in the air is Ground Pound, etc etc), and i don't know which button i should map to dive yet. If anybody could make a suggestion that is comfortable to use, then i'l try to implement it.

Why does jump have two buttons?
Make Z the dive button when you press it in the air and an attack button like a kick when standing on the ground.
Ideally, though, you make the controls gamepad by default and let users map their own keyboard controls.

Is it a spin jump?

Basically, what Pedigree said. Customizable controls are the best way to go.
If you don't know how to set up customizable controls, I'd probably do Z to run, X to jump, and C to dive.

Well, in Super Mario 63 (a 2-D Super Mario 64 remake), they had down as up as jump, down as dive, and z as ground pound (in mid-air). If you would like to see the game itself to see how the control scheme works out, you can find it here (it's also very well done and fun to play): https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/498969

But as for the controls, i'm going for a NSMB/SMW style with SM64 and SMO controls in the mix.
UPDATE: I made C the dive button.
