Title: PB Tutorial Videos
Post by: CGM on February 05, 2020, 04:18:11 PM

TingThing hasn't uploaded any tutorials since 5.0, which was almost 2 years ago. TingThing, you need to make more! And maybe even re-make the ones that already exist.

I think there needs to be more tutorials/documentation on features in Platform Builder.
Many features I only find out about via pure luck when I stumble across them.
This should not be the way to learn.

For example, I did not find out how to move the cursor past the first screen when creating my first game. This is why all the levels in Jet Set Manic Adventure are single screen size.
It was only after I've created all 10 levels that I found out (stumbled across) that I can use
the player2 movement controls to move the cursor beyond the first screen !

Also I didn't know about destructible crates until I posted a question on this forum.

So, please more tutorials/documentation for Platform Builder.

You should have seen the videos for PB at the tutorials page on the PB website. You could have learned sooner if you had seen those.

I could. I just haven't had much inspiration for PB lately. I've been doing other things. Maybe it will help get my inspiration back...

I know I could make some really cool tutorials, and I had ideas for using my PB character as the host and using text bubbles.

I think you should use your real voice.
