How many levels this game have?

[@Swopher]

WOW!! AMAZING!!!! This channel is TOO underrated, this was easy to understand and super simple to follow!

[@eggabacon]

I've tried so many times to make games using both Unity and Unreal Engine, but never did anything with it, however this video was very simple and useful, and I absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for making this.

[@IBeJaMz]

its been 5 years since i used unity this was the refresher as simple as it was i really needed it .Good jump !!

[@MrRisko10]

Great Tutorial. One of the best tutorial I found. It’s not to fast or to slow. Just the correct speed.👍

[@molten621]

[@williamw9758]

Best tutorial I could find on Unity 2D Platformer! All other tutorial often go too fast or is using too many outside resources that is hard to follow. This one is just simple and perfect to get started! Thank you!

[@bblakeyyy]

no probs!

[@Max-ko8fm]

Very good video! This is the best 2d platformer tutorial that I've found because most tutorials start with a tile-set which makes it hard to follow.

[@bblakeyyy]

glad to hear that!

[@miamouse765]

I have been trying to figure out player controls forever now thank you so much!

[@magic4237]

You explicated the code really good and like @Orpheus YW said the other tutorials of how to make a platformer on unity2D uses other sources or they are just simply not finished definitely subscribing

[@Blinkers2007GameDev]

Best tutorial on 2D plattformer imo. I will make my own 2D game eventually, thanks for your help.

[@bblakeyyy]

Glad to hear it dude!

[@Blinkers2007GameDev]

@@bblakeyyy thanks! I played your invisible platform game and loved it so much!!! But how does it save your progress? And how do I go back to menu?

[@bblakeyyy]

Thanks! That game was made around 3 years ago now, it was my first ever game, so doesn’t have a lot of the typical functionality a good game should. It saves ur progress by loading you into the level and saving the level ur in via an int :)

[@Blinkers2007GameDev]

Thanks, I found this very good. Not simple, but that’s not your fault. It was the computer.

[@jingboss1234]

underrated channel +1 like

[@NiksindiaIsm]

Nice Tutorial

[@goldenkillzz7425]

for making the character move. you put the actual movement in the update method. But in fact, u should put any related physics functions in the fixedupdate method

[@Bzyku1ek]

great course

[@dootpooter4740]

This video was so good I'd buy you a free cup of coffee at the Jiffy Lube waiting room.

[@regis360q]

Thank you!

[@pietblubbervis]

It doesn’t let me grab the rigidbody2D.. can someone help? I don’t know what I did wrong. I’m using vs2022 btw

[@OmnsaeF]

22:37 BIG REMINDER to be mindful of how you're naming things! I was scratching my head why the "End" didn't load Scene2/level2 on collision. Welp! Named the Scene "Level 2", and upon putting the code, I put "Level2", sooo that space had me running loops for a good 3 minutes lol. I always forget how literal, word-by-word scripting/coding is...

[@Danozziiii]

Thanks now i can make my first game

[@snigames]

Thank you!

[@GamingPlush64]

There's a bit of a flaw in the way you coded your jumping. Whenever I'm against an object, even when there's no ground beneath it, I'm able to jump. Sometimes I hit an edge at such an angle that it disables my jump when I land, thinking that I'm still against it. Any idea how to fix that?

[@HyperrealisticNoise1111]

try to give a extra space in your collision compared to the sprite

[@dergus8833]

earned a sub!

[@bblakeyyy]

appreciated!

[@nourzad.korusaki876]

wooooow finely find goood tutorial

[@DarkoBarabasov]

Best Tutorial

[@XPLaxative]

I set my speed to private and didn't declare it I just assigned it there and then. I prefer it that way. Works great if anyone else wants to use it 'private float speed = 10f;'

[@practicalice3799]

Yup

[@jayantgamer6718]

Your the best bro

[@boredroars4861]

this was really great thanks

[@ShamrockShinobi]

Everything works amazingly, even figured out what i was doing wrong with the buttons except that everything ABOVE resume selects resume, but if im anywhere below it highlights quit. Is there a way to make it to where the only place you can select is the actual buttons and not anywhere around them?

[@Christina_Nguyen]

At 15:53 in the video, my recommendation is to not change “collision” to “other” as when I changed it to “other” my jumping did not perform correctly. But keeping it as “collision” made it work perfectly

[@bblakeyyy]

Your issue was most likely elsewhere, changing to other should not cause issues

[@quart7272]

thanks man

[@danelotermin3178]

Hi loved the tutorial. Helped me a lot and maked me take my first steps. But, thee movement and jumping scriptt didn't work to me. Do you know a script for only jumping? I would really apriciate it. Thanks for all!!!

[@sruffolo9303]

what VS theme are you using?

[@RedBeatsLife]

hello to if your rigidbody and your monobehaviour arent working youve got to go to edit in the editor>prefrences>External tools and then set external script editor to the current code program your using in my case VS(Visual Studio)

[@mitkorx3270]

This tutorial is very good but i have one question.When i go to new component and type player movement there isn't my script.Please help me bye:)

[@yurvine5448]

in the script for the basic movement part, when I added it as a component, the option speed didn't show up, did anyone come across the problem?

[@Mostege]

mine for example doesn't make statements like Rigidbody2D and Vector2 green. Is that normal? Although it works I have never programmed

[@KipsterFur]

I’m glad I’m not the only one

[@mayonnaiseguy69420]

Really nice tutorial! By the way, in the ground check part, i have a glitch that if i jump once it wont let me jump anymore, if you can, please reply as soon as possible! Thanks!

[@kylemorely1812]

There's a bug in this game" if you add a wall with a collider and everything, if you hold the AD keys when touching it, your character will stick to the wall.

[@DarioMarken]

Dude I love you

[@bblakeyyy]

glad to hear it! subscribe to the second channel for more tutorials!

[@JustAGymGuy]

i copied the code for moving but it don't work

[@adw9749]

You also have to adjust the things and stuff

[@keetee-ei3er]

Basically just hit the keys and hit the head to the wall until something happens on the screen and repeat the same over and over again. Just be patient with yourself, try different methods of learning etc. After watching tutorials try to build something using the concept you just learned, seek help and reminders after you stuck a dead end, try by yourself first. Slow by slow kick the bar higher and repeat the same learning process. Try to learn the logic behind the code concepts, but for sure you don't have to know everything. Eventually you will learn something. Building small projects again and again and then adding always some new and difficult to the project

[@bblakeyyy]

Good advice!

[@keetee-ei3er]

@@bblakeyyy Thanks for your help! By the way, background music did not get unnoticed, great and relaxing atmosphere 🎼

Hi I used this tutorial and when I implemented the movement part it gave me a syntax error and wouldn't show up in components tried one I found on stack over flow and didn't work either can you help? btw I was using unity 2020.3.

how do i add double jumping

[@thuvstar2536]

The end cube which is meant to transport you to the. New level does not work . I am using the new input system for movement as well

[@scoape]

Great tutorial. do you know how you'd might change the button used to jump?

[@bblakeyyy]

Yeah, you can in the player settings I’m sure. Or you could use getKeyDown instead of get button down and type a key letter if it’s just keyboard

[@Me_If_Your_Annoying]

Does anybody have any ideas on how to flip the character when you move?

[@Firefly-oi4mw]

this all is amazing but for some reason when i do the camera following it just shows the sky and not the player how to fix?
