Vertical Platformer Games Using GDevelop

Last time, we introduced GDevelop as a viable option for no-code game engines. Now, let’s try building vertical platformer games using GDevelop.

GDevelop comes with two behaviors to build platformer games. We can use the Platformer Character behavior to configure the character actions, such as running or jumping on platforms. 

Then, we use the Platform behavior for the character to identify objects as platforms. With this behavior, the character can collide with the platform or walk on it.

Check out this prototype to learn more about the two behaviors.
