Develop a Sprite and
Platform Game
Even in today's world, people remember Mario, Sonic, and Mega Man. Of course, Mario was
irst introduced in the Eighies, followed by Mega Man and Sonic, but even now the new
generaion love these games. Yes, we are talking about the old style 2D plaform games,
which sill exist.
In this topic, we will start the irst chapter with a 2D plaform game because there are
some basic tricks for a 2D plaform game, which will help you—those who haven't got into
the 3D world yet—to understand more before jumping into the 3D world for the project in
later chapters.
Mission briefing
We'll be creaing a 2D plaform or side-scrolling game, which is similar to Mario or other
games that we have menioned previously; it will have a simple character that the player
will be able to move, jump, and collect a key item to be able to pass the level, and a
Restart
buton for the player to play the game again.
