How I made an Excellent Platformer
STEAM PAGE: store.steampowered.com/app/2254210/Finding_Xavier/
Finding Xavier is a short high precision platformer in which you are trying to find your cat, Xavier.
The techniques used in this video to create Finding Xavier are 'perfect' for this game. With this I mean that these things are exactly the way I wanted them to be. These aren't specifically guidelines on how to make a perfect platformer, as opinions per person vary. Feel free to take these tips as you'd like.
Inspired by amazing games like Celeste, Hollow Knight and Ori (and the blind forest/and the will of the wisps).
Software used:
▶ Unity - Game engine
▶ Aseprite - Art
▶ Bosca Ceoil - Background music
▶ Audacity - Sound effects
My twitter where I try to post regular updates on the game: GoIdenEvolution
Background music: Zelda & Chill III by Mikel - gamechops.com/zelda-and-chill-iii/

    >Lots of input lag >Falling faster than ascending while jumping gives a smaller window of reaction for a safe landing, given I managed to jump in the first place my concern isn't where I jump from, is where I land, at least halve the gravity on the jump highest point so I get more time to plan it midair if it's gonna be like that, like Celeste does since it was your frame of reference. >Climbing has stamina, apparently, I had to figure that out (as well as how to climb, apparently the thinking clouds are more concerned in showing me a cat and how to harvest abilities than teaching me how to use them), I kept thinking I did something wrong and that's why I couldn't climb further, guess I'll must pray I don't run out of stamina when I need it because I have no idea how much do I have. >I can't predict how far will I wall jump because I either was snapped to the wall while climbing or I pressed the opposite direction too fast/soon, it would have been nice to reuse the interact button for grabbing onto the walls so the climb had a button to rely on, but it seems it's main purpose is for harvesting the abilities... even a new button would have been nice. >Why farm the abilities on the first place? just give em already, the farm is looks nice but is as useful as nipples are on males they are just there because otherwise it would look off to you If the controls where somehow average I think the game could be finished in 5 minutes or less, funny how I barely care about the amount of content, the controls are just bad

    Thanks for the video. I love metroidvanias. I picked up your game as it looks fun to play and may help give me inspiration. I totally agree with you player control is the most important. Metroid Dread just plays so smooth. If I can get my characters movement close to that it would be amazing.

    Looks great! I'm in the beginning phase of developing a similar game right now, and I'm really struggling to get the movement to feel right. It's frustrating because I know I can't really do any level design until I have the movement down. I think I need to step back and spend some more time studying good movement.
