🍓 JAM FACTORY - HOW IT'S MADE: Parallax!

In this video I explain what the parallax effect is and how it works, along with some of the methods I used with it in Jam Factory.

I had a lot of fun editing this video! I am pretty busy with college and other things, but I want to make more videos on the other effects used in this level, so look forward to those! :)

MUSIC USED:
Azure Apex:
Tapioca:
Sunlit Thunderscapes:
(All songs are by Ocular Nebula.)
Jelly Jim song is just Tapioca with various effects applied.

Credit to Nexus for the Master Duel footage I guess lol (was too lazy to record that hard of a level myself... even if that part IS auto and I only needed to place a start pos... you know what, nevermind it is what it is.)

Some people might not realize that Collision triggers have tons of potential of their usage like this one for example, using collision for looping and optimization purposes. Collsion is actually pretty straighforward to use, like it's not hard as people think. Glad you covering that up, so people can see full potential of Collision triggers because clearly some people didn't use them very often.

I was wondering how you made it look so smooth

[ammarsyed]

Really good video on this, also liked the Mumbo Jumbo part lol

[Kimixkryfr]

I cannot tell how much this tutorial helped me, THANK YOUUUU

[hidddend]

Loved this video, super excited for all the others to come :) Been wanting an explanatory thingy for neat effects in levels for a time, and I think Jam Factory is such a perfect example.

criminally underrated youtuber. thank you!

I’m curios to see how those spinning arrows work at the end. Maybe you could do a video on those?

[ultranox]

Wow, this is the best way to get parallax working.

Nice video

[Ozeinam]

Yo jam I actually just made it myself bc I don't understand and I was randomizing the number and I got it nowhere

[Undrcovr]

awesome

I now know what things I did wrong


also, thanks for making this! It's really helpful :)

[cakerama]

This video was so simple, Now im gonna try it myself. 2 hours later...

[connot]

I get so tired of seeing incorrect parallaxes lol. Nice tutorial tho, learned a couple new things from this too

You can also make group 4 follow player x and then make all the other groups have a negative x offset when following group 4, this makes the speed of the parallax stay consistent with the player speed and prevents the parallax from breaking when you go through a speed portal

Edit: also the custom swingcopter in golden shine uses “”move to””, it’s definitely not useless

[ChidoziGD]

These are underrated tricks @JamAttack I love it and also if you’re reading this this is the 100th commeng

[kukakysy]

I didnt understan anything but this is cool

[greenhal]

Super cool and helpful video! I wanted something like this for a while. Might actually try to use this sometime but I'll probably have to rewatch this because I'm dumb lol. Would like to see more videos like this :)

[SpaceflightGuy]

How would I make the paralax follow the player? If I lock it onto X, it just "moves" slowly away, since the trigger tries to "loop" the paralax.

mumbo jumbo must get into the geometry dash creator community

[lt_fruity]

Can you give me the level so i can inspect the mechanicsm because i dont understand

[NyanCat-dnjb]

Cool effect.I'm just curious how to use this on a static gameplay part, Like how -sdslayer- AudeoVisual did his 100 layer paralax effect.
