[@bear141a6]

thanks this is helpful

[@Ninfro]

How do I add a running animation to my sprite? I have the frames, and when I try to do it, it just flashes back and forth between the running animation frames with the idle(cat) frame coming in between each running frame. I guess its cause the hitbox and idle/cat costumes are in a forever loop but idk how to get around it.

[@user-lx7iy4mq9w]

me too brother

[@exranz2552]

thank you! there was a bug where if i hold W (jumping up) when the cat is in the air, if he touches a ceiling he will be stuck there until i release W. I used this as a mechanic for my game instead! Is there any way to add walking animations to your character?

[@gasterblaster833]

This Really Helped Me with My Platformer: GRAVITY It's almost finished!!

[@jxspr_]

hey, could you do a quick tutorial off of this video on using move animations, i cant figure it out because whenever the costume is changed the forever loop overides it.

[@vesnapostic6412]

That would be great!

[@Sebanardoxd]

Can you put a camera that follows the player and moves both horizontally and vertically? (when jumping or falling) thank you!

[@JacksonAcademy1]

I have a scrolling platformer tutorial series if you're still interested! It's on our youtube channel.

also for anyone checking this guide still works although you may have to rewatch it a bit

I have a question. Why does the cat slowly go up when the collision goes off, and why does it also affect the horizontal movement?

you probably forgot to check screen refresh

nice, the ceiling stick tho...

What do you mean? Does the player get stuck on teh ceiling? Read out the code or send me the project link and I'll check it out if you want.

@@JacksonAcademy1 I fixed it, maybe I missed it in the tutorial but within the "if key w pressed" you have to put an "if amount is < 0 around the" set y to 20 that fixes it
