GAME CREATOR ACADEMY • LESSON 2 OF 8

Create Your Player

YOUR SAVED PROJECT

1. Choose the player

For this lesson, your first player is the glowing square in the playground. Later you can swap it for your own character artwork.

2. Choose the view

This first exercise uses a top-down view so movement is easy to understand.

3. Add movement

Use the arrow keys on a keyboard or the large touch controls on your phone.

4. Reach the goal

Move the player into the goal zone. That proves your controls, boundaries, and win condition are working together.
