2D Animations | Coding a 2D Game Engine in Java #45

Join the Discord: / discord
In this episode I go over how to implement a simple state machine based animator. This allows us to create different prefabricated game objects with state machines attached to them, and we can flip through multiple animations based on different triggers. I also go over a couple more bug fixes.

Thanks Demotrix!

[@luandkg]

I love this series 😆😆😆😆

[@GamesWithGabe]

Thanks Luan! Hopefully I'll be getting Mario working within the next few episodes haha

[@AROD-oh5ez]

do you plan on making a game after youre finished with this? meaning, a tutoirial about making a game with this game engine

[@extrem2497]

0:34 i think bone based animations looks better also most 2d games uses it. But sprite sheet method is much easier to implement on programming side.

where is editorUpdate coming from?

[@sadmansakibkhan8667]

are you going to make a scripting language for the game ??

[@GamesWithGabe]

Hey @Sadman! I won't be making a scripting language in Java for the game. I do want to have a series on writing a programming language in the future, but I'll probably be doing that in C++/C. If you want to read a good book that teaches you how to do this in Java though, check out this: craftinginterpreters.com/ . It's free and I cannot recommend it enough, and it teaches you how to write a programming language in Java :)
