Run, jump, and stomp your way to your very first platform game! You'll make a character who leaps over gaps, bounces on enemies, and collects coins just like Mario!
A side-scrolling platform game just like Mario or Sonic! Your character runs left and right, jumps over gaps, lands on platforms, and tries to reach the end of the level.
Have you ever played Mario? We're going to make our VERY OWN version! You'll build a little character who can jump, collect coins, and even stomp baddies. You're going to be a real game developer!
This is Episode 2 of the My First Video Game series — no prior Godot experience needed (start with Episode 1: Zoom Zoom if you're brand new!). New concepts introduced: CharacterBody2D, gravity & jumping, TileMapLayer, Camera2D, and coins using Area2D. We keep code ultra-short and friendly.
