I have been working on Jungle Jump from Godot 4 Game Development Projects (Bradfield, 2024). It’s a platform game and as per the previous projects, the assets are provided by the author.
New learning from this project has been using the animation player to animate the player, the enemy and the items. I also learnt how to work with a camera, add sound, lives and extended my knowledge of using a rolling score display.
I had some problems with the script but managed to find solutions by searching the error codes. ChatGPT has been helpful in explaining the code concepts but I stopped using it to help me with error codes as it still seems unaware of it’s unknown unknowns.
Time is now quite tight so I decided not to finish the game. I will come back to the tutorial when I am making my own game as the game design is similar to what I want to achieve in the ‘mini-game’ sections of Danger on the Train.
