Is it possible to rotate the map?

I was thinking of making a game where the character is falling and you aren't allowed to hit the walls, and the only way to survive is to rotate the screen by 90 degrees by hitting the left or right arrow keys. Is rotating the map or screen possible in ohr right now?

It's possible, but a) it's functionally equivalent to rotating the character, and b) if you have to ask, you're probably not prepared to do it.

Edit: The easiest way to do it if you don't want to mess with scripting too much is to make four copies of each map, one for each orientation.

We had some discussions on the engine mailing list about supporting (smoothly) rotating the map or whole screen. Didn't think anyone would actually request it, though!

Rotating anything smoothly (by an angle not a multiple of 90 degrees) is not possible usnig any kind of workaround.
