Hey everyone, eagerly waiting for your feedback. Don't forget to check out the GitHub project if you're having issues and here's the complete code: pastebin.com/E3uUXuUF

[@spippyflipling]

You've got a great bunch of tutorials-- they're concise, to the point, and very informative. Keep it up!

[@allanlee5143]

i literally went from gamemaker to this, and it took a fraction of the time. This really helps, its enough to get a base engine going for the megaman like game i was working on. this has been great, thanks!

[@gabryoo3100]

For me I'm currently developing a minigame with your videos it's a real present. Thank you ❤

[@cameronkelleyshaw9613]

A bit late to the party here, but I found this tutorial incredibly helpful. The previous tutorials moved a bit fast for me, but the pacing on this one was very helpful and I appreciated the breakdowns of the lines of code and the notes that you added to them. Keep up the awesome work!

[@TGG_YT]

Love these tutorials, the pacing and the memes! Great work dude

[@niewinskipiotr1993]

Thank you so much for making this!

[@PianoGreenGaming]

YES IT CAME OUT! :)

[@Harpic1]

great vid, cool ideas, keep it up 🙏

[@diannecebotari]

Thank you, very helpful😍

[@pianoatthirty]

this video is a gem - finally coyote time explained and implemented in a very simple, effective way. I know this series is over but man I would love to know how you personally would implement running (holding a button down to increase move speed).

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

It's not over yet, still got a few videos left, working on the next one right now actually

[@canalgamingda1756]

Thank you friend, I am very very grateful for this new tutorial, I was already going crazy looking for a way to do this... thank you very much, I send you a cordial greeting from Peru, thank you friend... I wish you a good day. :) :) :)

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

Glad to help as always, hope this is what you're looking for!

[@renrenmalibiran743]

Thanks for the tutorial bro! I'm kindly asking how I'm gonna make double jump and stuff.

[@scorpiusjones5436]

I LOL'D at the wall jumping meme. I can tell you read the comments XD

[@VEE-XL]

Thanks i really appreciate this I just completed my own minigame how do i make it an application

[@shashank_sharma_7]

Great, I am on the 5th video of your tutorial, I do a full-time job as a software engineer that's why I am only able to follow your tutorials on weekends and at night time. Thanks man, We want more tutorials like this .

[@Razzzor79]

Woooooooo

[@kopek1233]

Hey man! Been following these tutorials for a couple weeks or so, and they are amazing for someone like me! (new to unity and game programming in general). With the *NEW* jumping/player movement code , I've been trying to tweak it so that my character slides on the wall (i had it down in the previous code). The new code is confusing me as to why i can no longer slide down the wall instead of being stuck there. Thanks in advance whether you or anyone else can help!

[@captainshado783]

Love this guide so far, I have absolutely 0 experience with coding/programming/ game development and your guide was really easy to follow. I didn't intend to have walljumping in my game, but my character still sticks to walls and and obstacles which makes it look kind of choppy. Any ideas on how to fix this?

[@user-vv1up3uf3t]

Hi, I have the same problem. Have you fixed it?

[@captainshado783]

@@user-vv1up3uf3t I believe you just set the friction to 0.000000001 instead of 0

[@giovannielias8153]

*BUG* I can do double jumps *with extra jumps = 0* I think what is causing the problem is the coyote time thingy

[@ixtream4643]

It would be cool if you could add a dash ability or something

[@MrCrazyPick]

Thank you for the seriesr, very helpful. The code is getting a bit confusing as you progress for me. Could you implement the Finity State Machine pattern? Its a topic I'm interested cause this confusion is present in my projects too. Best regards

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

Hey there, thanks for the suggestion, do you think the finite state machine would help here? Or it's just something you'd like to see covered?

[@MrCrazyPick]

@@PandemoniumGameDev hey there, is something I would like to see covered

[@lewan2kki]

Hi there, i really appreciate the tutorial, it works really good for the game that i'm planning to do.. I have an issue: i want to my character to attack when he's in any state.. i already did a transition from any state to attack when trigger attack is called, but it doesn't work.. is anything more i have to do? thanks in advance!

[@stormy2049]

Hey there! If by ''any state'' you mean ''being able to attack in the air'' I know what to do, just go in the PlayerMovement script then go to the ''canAttack( )'' method and get rid of the "&& isGrounded( )" Part and that will allow you to attack even in the air if that's what you wanted that is, and if not then what was it?

[@bachien5122]

Hey I love your tutorial and love to see a new episode but i've got an issue recently with the traps that don't move like the spike traps or the fire trap because when you take damage from them if you don't leave the hitbox of the trap the trap won't damage you again, if someone as any idea to solve this. Except this continue this serire it's been a great help for me since the beginning and I'd love to see in the next video something like multiple level and what happend once you die because for now you don't respawn. Keep up the good work this serie is amazing even tough I'm French I understand everything in your video you're the best.

[@scorpiusjones5436]

He does go back and address this in either the ENEMIES one or the TRAPS video. He had us revisit the FireTrap and fixed this same issue

[@blobking6595]

What is the music that u used? It was a little quiet in this video but I like it!

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

Thanks! It's called First by Text Me Records and it's copyright free.

[@tommasoraimondi6908]

Hey there, first of all great job for what you're doing, it helps me a lot to stay motivated and continue this adventure in game dev, but i ran in a small bug: i manage to do a double jump even if i don't have extra jumps by simply double pressing the space bar quickly, does anyone have any solution?

[@TheWarriorofDestiny]

same problem here :( I don't even have to press quickly.

[@RobotFN]

Do u have the full game Version I can play and downloaded

[@optikuszgamingchannel3728]

hy! how can i shot while i am running or i am in the air?.. at this video you attack move beetwen the idle and any state.. can you solve yomebody my problem? pls ty

[@mikailgunes7835]

Thank you for your Support its a very nice Tutorial for Beginners

[@moreaanda627]

Can you please make a video showing how to make a button on your main map to take you to a level like in cuphead

[@presleyknox9884]

can you pls add a vid in this about melee for the player ???

[@sim6996]

There is a problem : when the top of the player hitbox touch a plateform with ground layer you have infinite jump. Also we can't jump when we are on top of a Wall. Do you plan to improve that (Your tutorials are very helpful) ?

[@stormy2049]

Try using the edge collider component instead of box collider2D this will allow you to shape you hit boxes the way that you want instead of using a box. This way you can put a hitbox for each sides of the wall that you can label as ''wall'' and have a little triangle hitbox on the top pointing downward labelled ''ground''. TO MAKE IT MORE SIMPLE, picture this: let's say your wall is a rectangle if you trace a straight line from the top left corner all the way across to the bottom right corner and then mirror this from top right to bottom left in order to split it in 4 triangles, top, left, right and bottom triangles now asign all of them the desired layer ''wall'' or ground'' and that should do the trick ALSO VERY IMPORTANT !! : KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE EDGE COLLIDER COMPONENT PER GAMEOBJECT THEREFORE YOU'LL AS MANY OF GAMEOBJECTS AS hit boxes needed. There are probably better ways to do it but i'm not aware of them so yeah.. Hope that's clear enough btw and good luck with that.

[@colinturner8272]

Can anyone help me understand how I could incorporate a "crouch/crouching" mechanic into the PlayerMovement script? I'm having a very difficult time trying to figure it out with other videos. :(

[@c4dudley]

I'm having an issue where majority of the time my character tries to run and jump past the "Start (Idle)" object, he gets stuck, and struggles to get by it. sometimes he slows down, sometimes it just freezes in place and i have to move left to get out of it. I've made sure there are no colliders on that start banner object, and it's not the "Right wall" box collider hanging down too much. any thoughts?

[@PandemoniumGameDev]

Sometimes when your player which has a box collider walks on the point where two ground box colliders connect (in this case it might be the two ground objects from different rooms) your player will get stuck as you describe it. Not sure if I explained it well enough, DM me on discord if it wasn't clear.

[@c4dudley]

@@PandemoniumGameDev okay, that makes sense. I'll play around with it. if the issue still continues, i'll reach out again on discord. thank you, really great tutorials
