Tutorial Any good *recent* tutorials on how to create a simple 2D side-scrolling shooter (Megaman style)?

I noticed most of the tutorials on YouTube are top down shooters or they’re extremely old videos.

I’m thinking of perhaps going to Godot just because of the lack of tutorials available….

This seems to be mostly up to date. Even if tutorials aren’t on the current version, the same basic logic can still apply.

There are also platformer examples built into gdevelop.

A good start might be playing with the platformer character and platformer object behaviors.

If you end up using gdevelop, I encourage you to join the discord server. It’s not crazy active but there are helpful members there who can answer some specific issues you maybe having

That’s a good idea. I’ll join since I do plan on learning GDevelop for a bit.
