Platformer Toolkit

Excellent work!  Right now I am working with my students making VR games, but if I (or they) decide to make a 2D platformer I will be sure to send them here and try this wonderful game/essay out.

When i saw the Youtube Video i was like, meh i dont need this, but now i see the possibilitys one has. Its so amazing and i now wanna play around with movement of my players in unity more in detail.

I hope this makes me Quit Tutorials Hehe

Loved the game. It was interesting to see how my controls compared to other games.  

cranked literally everything up and it was pure chaos

this is so fun

very good game. my sister loved it, she played it for over 20 mins playing around with controls in the toolkit. easy to understand 

This was fun and then it was so weird when I was playing and I thought "Ugh this character is too slow" and I was like "Wait I can just change that right now" lol it was so weird how I was limiting myself and making myself mad hahaha

This is amazing. Good job!

Have a comment for the algorithm, if such a thing applies here

Why is there an instant movement checkbox that does nothing and cannot be ticked

That was fun thanks :)

I've always liked bhopping and breaking the character's animation so I maxed out the jump buffer stat to support the timing.

PLEASE MAKE MAP MAKER WITH SHARE CODE
AND RECORD CODE

this is first multiplayer of all time in games

#flashAlive

AND THIS ALL?!

Considering this is meant for learning, I would expect the full source code to be available as well. Any reason it’s not?

Please make 32-bit version for windows! I would love to play this game video essay!

Nice game because, i feel in control...

I see my self as quite bad with platformer controls and I'm making a platformer alone! This was a true lifesaver to me. Keep it up

this game is so cool.

Interesting! I ended up with something very close to Celeste for running, but with a little less acceleration! Close to it, too for running.

THIS IS A MUST HAVE!

I'm a teacher and this will definitely be in my next year's class at some point!

You call it essay but this is actually a master class! Congratulations and keep doing them! I'm sure you can find other themes to add to the collection!

Thank you for this amazing assets!

so dang good

Very cool

video game essay

i adore this

Incredible idea

Mark, this is amazing! It's an increadiblet tool to have. Thank you and the team for this.

This was very helpful, and a select few points were very informative even OUTSIDE platformer design. Thanks again, Mark!

Damn thats pretty good.

Don't miss this excellent research on jumping http://www.martinf.dk/jump/

This. Is. Amazing !

Fabulous!

A slightly updated Game Feel (game-feel.com)

Cool, I guess

I teached me a lot ! Thanks

This is amazing and I love it, and should be necessary playing for anyone interested in learning about game feel. One note: version you show in the youtube video has a "?" help button next to the Air Control and Air Acceleration sliders, but this version does not. I had to kinda guess what they mean.

really nice game😵😵😵
