Hey guys!

I wanted to put this out nice and early, since I'm actually leaving tomorrow to fly to Ontario for a little over a week.

A little background:

Since becoming 'okay' at gamedev several years ago, I've ALWAYS wanted to create my own 2D platformer controller. I've taken a look at most of the popular and recommended ones on Youtube and always had to make quite a few modifications to make me happy with it.

But I never felt confident enough to make my own.

Well...FINALLY, I've completed my goal! This has nothing to do with Samurado, but it's been a personal goal of mine that I've been DYING to re-try for a long time now.

I finally just bit the bullet and went for it.

And I'm really REALLY happy with the results!

It's a 2d character controller that has:

Ground/Air/Wall jump Acceleration and Deceleration
Gravity Controls
Jump Cut Time Controls
Jump Apex Controls
Multiple Jumps
Jump Buffering
Coyote Time
Wall Slide with Deceleration Controls
Wall Jump with cut/apex/buffering
8 directional dash (like Celeste)
Air dashes
Ground dashes can be combined with jumps (like Celeste)

Super happy to have completed this before leaving for Ontario! The video will come out this Thursday, but I wanted all of you to know that:

The GITHUB project (along with it implemented in a STATE MACHINE) has been posted for you all on Github today. Let me know if you have any questions!
(it's called 'TUT-2D-Platformer-COMPLETED'
I hope some of you use it and enjoy making some awesome 2d games with it!

FYI - if you want to try out a demo that showcases the controls: you can check it out here:

Cheers guys, and I'll be back in about a week and a half!
