We begin by refreshing on creating movement functionality in Unity3D. Then, move onto prototyping a level where the player needs to move across it by moving between platforms and not falling below the floor.

After listening to this episode, I encourage you to try Implementing the movement mechanics and platform jumping ideas on your own. And if you face issues then feel free to reach out to us for help and we’d be happy to guide you.

If you would like to download the Unity3D Game Engine, then you can get it for free by downloading the Personal edition here: Unity3D Store
