SGDK Platformer

Start with a short course that proves the movement feels right. A character that jumps well in an empty room can still feel awkward beside ledges, low ceilings, moving platforms and enemies.

Use these patterns to solve platformer mechanics and hardware constraints. The lab’s art, music, mood and tuning illustrate one game; they do not prescribe another game’s style or feel. Follow the project’s creative direction.
