I have been working on this project for a little bit, and it is exceptionally fun and interesting. I have decided to make my game a platformer game. In these games there is a character who (in the type of platformer game that I am trying to make) must reach an objective by means of jumping onto various platforms. However it is not that simple, there are a lot of obstacles in the characters way. So far I have put together the basic controls for the character, this includes moving left, right, and of course jumping. But I have also ran into problems. The main problem I've run into is making the character stop when he runs into an obstacle.Soon I will make more obstacles and levels for the character.
