This video does move at a relatively fast pace, you can slow down segments you're interested in by adjusting YouTube's playback speed, but it's recommended that all first time users watch the intro tutorial playlist before watching this series:

There have also been some changes to the engine since this video was released, but nothing that would stop you from following along. The biggest change is the names of actions/conditions, they've been condensed in engine and will typically consist of one word. Try searching for a single keyword instead, so instead of "change the animation" the action name is now "animation".


Hope that helps.

These longer-form videos are basically step-by-step instructions on how to make games. So useful.

That's great to see we only need a few steps to set up this kind of game on GDevelop! Great video!

[sumthinprodukchins]

Bless you Helper Wesley for sticking to the platform so that I may learn more. One day I hope to be decent enough with the engine to help others, like you.

These longer video series are a god send. Please do more like this.

Personal request for a series like this covering 2d action RPGs like legend of Zelda.

Nice! i was looking on how to make a roguelike games and how to cover the basics thank you gdevelop i can't wait!

[mcqueen]

In my case I made a tiled sprite around the whole screen and delete the bullets when on collision with the object, and to shoot bullets I simply create the bullets and add a force towards an angle. Do you think this affects performance or it doesn't make much difference?

More long form videos please. This video was great and nothing attracts aspiring game devs to an engine like a plethora of good tutorial content.

Also, it would be awesome if the assets were linked and easily downloadable. I know its extra work, but it goes a long way for people wanting to follow the tutorial

[pixelthechip]

You are the best for this video, and I hope you can continue in this series.

[MLeamSi]

really helpful specially how to resolve this little bug(as object picking) :D
would be great if next tuto is about Enemies

[samthewatcher]

I am realy thankfull, there aren't much tutorials on Gdevelop and I got inspired to make games by watching ur channel, now I am making a wave defence zombie shooter games so this helps a ton so if u would make another tutorial on polishing the game that would be helpful.

[SensationallyPsycho]

A very useful video. I've managed to set up most of my game just fine on my own, but the enemy wave system had been a fit. These longer videos will be very beneficial to new GDevelop users, and to current users starting new projects.

[danvelasquez]

I'd go UI, Power Ups, enemy variety/boss phases. Even toss in a transition from one level to another. Like, clear the boss then a new wave comes in of harder enemies.

This video will be really helpful ❤️❤️
Thanks :)

I like how you explained everything. However, i do have a few issues. I see that most likely some of the actions have different names now. I used the 'change animation by name' option but that did not work. when moving and standing still, only the idle animation is shown. I have tried opening the tutorial project but when i change anything, no matter what, in the events of that project, the whole project crashes and the file becomes corrupted so i don't really have something to compare it to. Is there something i am missing? Do i perhaps need to use another option instead of 'change animation by name'?

[gamingtricks]

Hey there, is it possible to have a video only for crafting, I found only one and it was kinda way complicated, thank you for all the videos ❤

[prod.victhemonster]

im falling in love with this software!

[texorigin]

Hey this video is amazing! Just at 7:35 the transition is crazy fast! I recommend doing this tutorial at .75 but for some crucial moments .5 would be best!

[zlokalgaming]

You can add barriers that can be placed and when the enemy touches them, they are destroyed

Your good ! I’m in the middle of trying to figure it out making a motor cycle racing game. It’s not easy as it looks !
