Alright so I'm making an adventure time 8-bit game with the same kind of engine as Pokemon yellow. Now my question is, how can I make Jake follow Finn in the game like Pikachu followed Ash in Pokemon Yellow ? Any help would be great, coding or drag n' drop are both appreciated!
Pokemon Yellow Type Movement ?

Download "The Dude's Library Platinum" it has a function that makes one object follow another at a set speed.

Whenever the player is about to move a square, store the player's position and direction in a variable, and then make the follower move towards the same square and face the same direction.

Easy really, just check which way Finn is face and place Jake in the opposite direction. For example, if Finn is face right, Jake would be at Finn.x-16.

It's worth noting that Yellow didn't work like this, Yellow was closer to Davve's solution: store the player's previous location every time he moves, and have Jake move to that location.Thanks for the reply. got it now (:
