I went to see how to make 2.5 D, in the end I realized that I already knew that, but I looked at the principle of creating pixel models in Blender, thank you)

[@HexaBlade007]

Definitely going to use this! Me and some friends have been trying to make a indie rpg game in the style of a Mario & Luigi game, and we had no idea how to deal with the sprites, but this just answered our question! But it does spawn another. If we wanted to have the sprite change based on if its going forwards or backwards, or even at a 45 degree angle, how would we do that? is there some documentation you could refer us to to better understand this?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Hi there! Thanks for watching! :) Unfortunately there isn't anywhere I can point you specifically. But off the top of my head, if you aren't changing the camera angle, why not just change the sprite based on input? So for example, if holding w then face backwards. :)

Great tutorial! I didn't really think of using Terrains for a 2.5D type game, but yeah it does make good sense. One question I do have whilst making my own game, is how to make a good skybox. Where did you get the skybox from? Do you have a link or something?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Hi there, thanks for watching! :D In this specific video, I actually didn't even use a skybox, I just changed the camera's background to solid color, and plopped in some star sprites that billboard the camera!

Monetize this man

[@Vincart]

Hey very cool tutorial, thanks! Unfortunately I have a problem with the clipping function. My character can't even climb small hills. Sometimes he just gets stuck. And when I get to the top of something bigger, I sink back into the ground. He only makes it up very small hills. Is this intentional or should it actually also work on larger hills (that aren't really steep)?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Something I noticed after I released the video, is that I actually went with rigidbody style movement. With this being the case, we could potentially just drop the entire raycast/snap feature altogether, as the rigidbody would take care of all the movement. With that being said, regardless of what method you use, you will run into the issue of slopes. Don't worry, you're not alone. Slopes are actually a big talking point in gamedev, with various methods and approaches on how to deal with them. The best 'bang for your buck' is to probably remove the raycast/snap feature as mentioned earlier, and apply a physics material to your player that has good friction. This should allow for decent inclines, and be more than enough for most cases. But if your still having issues, or are interested, it might make more sense to look into proper slope detection.

[@justyourfellowfrog]

i would love to know HOW you dragged your sprite into the 3d environment. for some reason it just doesn't work with me????????????????????????

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Thanks for checking out the video! Make sure you check your import settings. It's possible your sprite is set to a texture, or something else funky may have happened. Hope this helps! :)

[@geremiagalaxy8182]

request. If I know how to draw but I don't know how to program, is there a profession in the world of video games? I've always wanted to make a game like tombi/abe

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Thanks for the comment! So typically when it comes to game dev, you specialize in 1 specific aspect; whether it be art, programming, or design. These categories have a whole bunch of sub-categories inside of them. So for example, you said you know how to draw. Well, you might be a good fit for some of the artist jobs, like concept art, 2D asset creation, 2D animation, texturing, or even designing levels in 2D. In a large company, like blizzard, all of those examples are full-time jobs. Although, getting one those jobs can be a little tricky, as you need to be VERY proficient in that specific job-type. On the other hand, you have indie companies. These companies are usually more lax about proficiency, but are comprised of 1-20 people. But just because there are less employees, doesn't mean those jobs don't need to be done. It's just the amount of jobs per person increases. So 1 artist might be tackling several of those previous job examples, or even all of them. In this case, you need to have 'good' proficiency for most things in the art pipeline. So to answer your question, YES you can definitely build a career in game dev on just art alone. You just have to narrow in on what specific job you really like, and build a solid proficiency in it to compete with other job applicants. BUT given the second part of your comment, if you intend on making a game on your own, you WILL need to learn all things art, and hire a programmer, OR learn all of it on your own. Be prepared though, because not only are there plenty of sub categories for art, but for all 3 (art, programming, design).

Why my player can't move forward and backwards

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Without seeing your project, or additional information. There could be a bunch of reasons for this. i'll list a few of the common problems that could arise. You might be missing a rigidbody on your player. You may not have set variable values in the inspector. Your ground may not be on the correct layer. Your input system might have different configured keys. Mistyping in the code. If none of those solve the problem, and there is an error in your console, that would 100% help solve the issue if you paste it bellow. Cheers! :)

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

You can't use a 2d tile map as a texture. In seperate drawing software, such as photoshop, you will need to cut out your tile, and save it separately as a .png. Then when you import it, make sure it is set as a texture in your import settings! You can then use it on your terrain, or even make a material and use on a 3D model. :)

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Hmmm, that's really odd. Nothing I can think of off the top of my head. If you can't solve the issue, I would advise to create a custom camera follow script; or even easier, just position your camera how you like it, and make the camera a child of the player. :)

Thanks for watching! Very strange. I'm assuming the reason you don't have speed, height, etc, is because the Mathf error. Upon looking into it, the only explanation I have is maybe you didn't spell it correctly! It needs to be exactly " Mathf.Infinity ". Lmk if that worked for you! :)

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

Amazing video but if I want to add jump with the raycast movement you wrote in the video. In this case how should I make it?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Because I opted for rigidbody movement, you can just ignore the raycast, and everything should work as intended. Then just use an AddForce function on input (as you normally would) to handle the jump.

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

@ThatOneUnityDev Thanks,but if I want clean terrain movement on a slope like you did in the video, how should I do it?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

@@salmon_vegetable_plate It will still work in a similar way because we are using rigidbodies. The gravity should keep your player on the slope. Alternatively, if you for whatever reason want to keep the raycast, you can create a bool, and stop the snapping when you hit the jump input, and re-enable it when you touch the ground.

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

@ThatOneUnityDev ok,I will try to use the boolean. Thank you for replying me😀

[@johnemersonbacarra2583]

I want to learn this style. I'm really bad at creating my assets

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

I recently posted an announcement about a 2.5D course I created! If you take the course, you will gain access to all the assets you need! :)

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

I am currently working on a 2.5d project like this video and struggling with enemy and combat in this kind of 2.5d environment. I try to use the nav mesh agent be my enemy Ai but it turns out to be kind of bad and I don’t know what I can adjust. Even after searching online there seems to be little information about this kind of enemy AI. Can you give me some advice or hint?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

You are definitely on the right track! For 3D typically a navmesh is used to define 'walk-able' areas, and have waypoints for the agent to go to. Creating complex AI is actually incredibly difficult. My suggestion is to try and create a basic 'idle', 'chase' AI. So your enemy is idle by default, until something happens (he sees you, you get in a radius, etc.), then make it chase you for a certain amount of time, before going back to an idle state. If it seems your Navmesh isn't cooperating with your terrain, you could always be a little sneaky, and use some basic primitives to get the rough layout of the map, turn them invisible, and then make the navmesh based on that instead.

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

@ThatOneUnityDev ok, but what if I have multiple slime chasing and want to attack me? Because it is 2.5D, and the enemy is using a navmesh agent to find the nearest path to the player. What if the enemy goes behind or in front of the player but instead the right or left side of the player . I have no idea how to make this kind of non range attack look good.

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

@@salmon_vegetable_plate Those are very good questions. Usually something like that would be handled via code. You would tell the agent, he can't go in front or behind the player. Which is a lot easier said then done. A sneaky way off the top of my head, that requires no code, is to add dynamic obstacles as a child of the player. Again, I haven't tried it yet, but it might be a painless solution to your issue! As a last resort, you might also want to look into A* pathfinding, and ditch the navmesh all together. Either way, i'm sure you can come up with a solution! Hopefully I helped! Let me know how it goes!

[@salmon_vegetable_plate]

@ThatOneUnityDev Thank you. I will try the dynamic obstacles and see if that works!

Hello I’m having trouble and would appreciate the help, I’m trying to do the animations using if speed is greater than x play the walking animation or if speed is less than x play the idle animation but don’t know how to change the code to alter the speed, any tips?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

So what I would do, is create a float speed parameter in your animator. Then in the code, you would get your animator component and set the speed parameter bellow the movement, to be the x variable. So anim.SetFloat("speed",x); Your animator transitions would be going to walk if speed is not equal to 0, and returning to idle if it is. The x variable is simply the players input. Which is already setup to be either -1 for left, 1 for right, and 0 for no input at all.

How u model this litle house? for me its to complex, shoud you make a tutorial :(

At around the 4:35 mark I go over how I made it! I know I kinda rushed that part, but it's just basic 3D modeling. I will have to make a more detailed tutorial in the future! :)

[@Gomace]

I just want to mention that there's an option in unity called "GetAxisRaw" which has a much higher response feedback when it comes to Axis coding. I have no idea why that is not the default for GetAxis, but hey, that is what it is.

[@maniacone4499]

As far as i know, and correct me if i am wrong: GetAxi is normalized and does some extra calculation behind the scene while GetAxisRaw does not and gives you the input-values unfiltered. maybe that's why its more responsive.

[@dinisb]

Do you know how one would make that when the camera moves, the character changes sprites corresponding to his position and the position of the camera?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

So basically a 3rd person controller, but with sprites? Off the top of my head, I would probably do some sort of angle maths from the camera's forward to the player's, and use ranges to switch based on that. There might be a better/easier way though.

HI! I'm new to Unity so I wanted to ask if it was possible to make the character move only horizontally and not in depth. my idea is to make a side scroller game and just simulate the depth of buildings etc. Sorry for the “stupid” question 😅

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Haha, thanks for watching! You can easily do that by removing the "float y = ...." line and on the line below it, replace the y with a 0. :)

[@themaydayman]

nice and concise :D

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Thank you for watching! :)

[@Magician3388]

Thank you for the tutorial, what is the resolution of the sprites you are using? I was having trouble getting sprites to look less pixelated.

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Thanks for watching! I am using 32x32 for my sprites. Try changing the import settings to no compression, and use point no filter.

[@marc13bautista]

Nice tutorial. Can you remake this for using Unreal Engine / Godot / Gdevelop? I don't wanna use Unity because of the distrust and infamy it's gained recently.

Hi ! I'm a ue5 user do u know where can I find a similar tutorial for ue5 ??

Did you paint the grass with the terrain tool or place it manually?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Thanks for checking out the video! I believe in this example I placed the long grass manually. In my other video, I used the terrain tool. :)

[@actsolator2261]

Hi, thanks for this awesome tutorial! I am a newbie in game dev, right now I have a problem with the script(or maybe not), the problem is when I start to play the game my character can do a flip when I press A/D which means it simulates the movement on right & left, but it stuck on the same position and just can't move🤒, do you have any ideas what may make this happen? Thankyou!!! update: just realized I need to disable the Freeze Position from Player>Rigidbody LOL

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Haha, no worries! Glad you got it all sorted out! :)

[@davidpak271]

I'm having the same issue and I'm using the constraints in Rigidbody but it's not working, what was the solution? Update: Nevermind I got it, I'm trying to combine this tutorial with CodeMonkeys which uses transform instead, so i ended up locking the rotation in update, not sure if this is resource intensive though.

[@RafaelHernandez-mc5rf]

Can you make one on how to make a top down version similar to eastward / sea of stars wheee it looks more 2d and not 2.5d ?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

It's the exact same, except with top down art. 😅

[@gabrielheroux982]

amazing video, inspired me to make a little prototype. i followed your code and got it all working, but i was wondering how you would make the player jump as well? new to unity, thanks :)

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

Because I opted for rigidbody movement, you should be able to remove the raycast that is snapping the player to the ground, and use something like the 'AddForce' function to make the player jump!

[@gabrielheroux982]

thank you!! works very well except that my player jumps infinitely. any idea how to fix that? @@ThatOneUnityDev

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

@gabrielheroux982 LOL, define "jumps infinitely." At this point, your character is basically just a normal 3rd person controller, minus rotations. Are you using the same practice as a regular 3D jump? For context, you can check out my latest video on how I handle a 2D jump, and then apply the same foundations but in 3D. -Using a Physics.Raycast. -Determining if your on the ground + timer. -Applying the force. -Reset jumps when landed.

[@ramenflavors]

Do i have to use 3D (URP) or could I just do 2D and somehow make it into 3D?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

You could do that, or you could even use no rp. BUT, I highly suggest not starting in 2D if you can help it. If your making something similar to what I did in the video, the only sprites in the scene are essentially the player/npc sprites. There would be 0 benefit of using a project configured for 2D, as this is basically a 3D game.

[@slufrgsfdsvjg5396]

I can’t move my character at all, do you know what the problem might be?

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

It could be a number of things. Do you have a rigidboy2d on it? Perhaps your terrain collider, and player collider have you stuck in the ground? Check your rigidbody2d constraints, and make sure they match.

[@slufrgsfdsvjg5396]

@@ThatOneUnityDev I do have two console errors that I don’t know how to fix which might be the problem “You are trying to read input using the unityEngine.input class, but you have switched active input handling to input system package in player settings. player controller.Update () (at asset/ player controller.cs:36)”

[@ThatOneUnityDev]

@Slufrg Sfdsvjg oh okay. So my script uses the old input system, but you are using the new input system. You could either update my code to the new system, or revert back to the old one. Which is in project settings-> player->active input settings
