Platform Tutorial or Source code?
« on: February 04, 2011, 02:49:58 am »
Hey Everyone,

I really like SFML and I want to start programming a platforming game (Eg: Mario or Sonic) but I wondered...

Are there any platform game tutorials or any projects with source code released that I could look at?

And if not could someone point me to a place to start learning about programming a platform game?

Thanks in advance,
Kordman916

I only know jnrdev, but the page has gone offline in the meanwhile. You can still find the tutorial in the web archive or in the Allegro wiki.

Thor Library: particle systems, animations, dot products, ...

if you are merely interested in the logic required to create a game take a look at this flixel tutorial.

Of course this is on flixel which is a 2d game library so you will have to implement a more robust sprite, state management, and collisions among other things if you plan to use SFML.
