We're going to add parallax to our 2D scene's background layers, then make it endlessly scroll!
This is a complete tutorial - from adding player, setting up the camera - to a beautifully scrolling background! Basically make a whole endless runner / side scroller in 7 minutes :o

Your channel receives far less recognition than it deserves. Legitimately a hidden gem. Subscribed.

You never disappoint! I've really enjoyed and loved this video, it was really cool... making cinematics with this must be crazy! 🤭

I am trying to make a proper parallax effect for a year I guess... And this is the only tutorial that really helped me.
You are awesome!!! I wish I can like 1 million times...

Thanks for the tutorial, I follow your video from the player movement guide, and for the animations player it's really easy to follow and understand!

Hello, the tutorial is great and I'm grateful for it. However, I would like to ask for a more in-depth explanation of the movement float value. Why are we multiplying by 1 - parallaxEffect?? And why is it used to decide whether or not we are relocating the background? In essence, what I'm asking is, what does the variable movement represent?

[vinivini]

In your video, the character vibrates when she walks. I have this in my game and I don't know how to fix it, could you tell me?

[pranshugupta]

You're so aesthetic haha... Can you help me out please... So if i animate something just assume that I'm animating a leg of a player so when i change it's transformation position so there is a value which is changed of position so what will happen if i move my character using script will the objects(leg) keep animating in the same old space where it is animated or it'll come along with character while animating??....

[doustarx]

can you do a tutorial on the health bar plz

[pranshugupta]

And where did you learned all these...

[fabian_ftn]

Hello, Cant I just add the Camara as a Child of the player so it follows him instead of using Cinemachine? For some reason when I use Cinemachine my character movement seems a bit laggy

[TheTrueFriend.]

Can you please do the same amazing videos for UE 5 ?
I am a beginner so I barley know anything XD

[radovan_mladic]
