"JNR" (
http://jnrdev.72dpiarmy.com/) has got an excellent tutorial on how to do platform games. As the original is in C, I decided it needed converting to GLBasic, and included with this post is the result of the first example.
I wont post the source code just yet as I need to put the original comments back in (and add some of my own).
In this example : Movement and Jumping
In the next example : Slopes!
