Summary

2d Movement using keyboard input

Full Description

Hey all, This code will move your character around a 2d screen using the keyboard. There are 2 functions. MovePlayer(p) and MovePlayerWithAngle(p). Both functions do the same thing. The Angle one will target the mouse and rotate around it based off user input. There are loads of ways to do this but I want to make it easy to understand.<br /> <br /> Thanks,<br /> -Joe
