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/

    Hey ! Congratulation for your game :) It gives a great blueprint on how to create a fairly decent platformer! Did you do all your assets by hand?

    Can you add accessories on animated character for example rigged one? meaning When animation is being played characters components transform and rotation do not change, is it possible to take animation component's animated transform position and rotation and use that exact position to animate attachments overlay on a character's head such as glasses?

    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.

    • @zoxv8733
      @zoxv8733 Před 5 měsíci

      I'm no proffesionalist but i think he probabbly just used a bigger brush instead of painting pixel by pixel(if you're talking about the background tree trunk)

    • @brucelee7782

    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.

    I just looked up and bought your game, and I have to say that given that you did all of the art yourself, along with level design, mechanics, and so forth, and apparently have something completed, you can probably charge at minimum three times what you do. ADDENDUM: OK, having played it part way through, I think you should *at least* add an extra dollar on there!
