Platformer Starter Kit w Vertical Scrolling

A lot of people have been expressing interest in trying to get the platformer starter kit to work with vertical scrolling as well as horizontal. So I have added that to my site. My code is kind of a hack, I just screwed around with the changes from the horizontal scrolling and added what I hoped would be vertical. It worked. I call it a hack, because it really is. It doesnt scroll perfectly.. For example, it will not show a block at the top or bottom until the block can be fully drawn on the screen. I never got around to playing with that to fix it. Otherwise, it works well for levels of any size! Included in the zip is just the c# files from the kit.. No solution, no art, etc. to keep it small. Heres the link to download it:
