    Wanna create a cool Platformer?

    By using this template you can quickly create a super cool platformer game.

    The template contains a Construct 2 and Construct 3 version.

    The template contains a lot of ready-to-use logic. You just need to build levels and enhance the graphics to suit your style.

    Here is the list of features:

    • Basic movements
    • Camera movements
    • Save points (Check poins)
    • Ladders, nets and bars
    • Goodies (e.g. coins and gems)
    • Moving platforms (e.g. via way-points)
    • Teleporters
    • Zones (triggers)
    • Scenes (in game speak bubbles)
    • Weapons (gun, shotgun, machine-gun, grenade, flamethrower and lightning-gun)
    • 4 enemies type (static, moving, hunting, flying)
    • Doors, keys and secret rooms
    • Falling spikes and more

    The template is using 32x32 tiles and has a screen resolution of 480x320, which is perfect for pixel art but also good for more smooth graphics.

    The code is well commented and structured and the asset pack also contain a 7 page PDF document that explains how things works.

  • Ok. Will do that!

  • do support gamepad? i wanna purchase but w/out gamepad i don't play/make nothing,thanx.

  • Hi Bigibby01

    Gamepad? Why not. It should be no problem to implement that. I will go into that during next week.

    Keep an eye on this thread, I will make a post when it is done. 😊

    EDIT: Got it working on my machine! Will make a new release of the asset within a week or two (I'm currently working on some improvement that I would like to include in the update).

  • Hello,

    I purchased your template and I can't get the file to open because the plugin and behavior add-ons aren't installed. I didn't see any of the .caddon files in the plugin and behavior folders so that I can install. Is there something missing or am I supposed to install them a certain way?

    Updated:

    And never mind! I figure out that I had to use the install path method. Everything's working. Great template!

  • Hi YoHoho.

    I'm glad you got it working. The readme file should explain how to installed the extra plugins

  • Looking awesome rly, great job!

    I will love to know what kind of programming/scripting knowledge do I need for build my own levels, customize it a little bit and so on.

    I'm on the artist side so will love to pick it up if its affordable enough for me

    Thanks!

  • Hello, I also purchased your template. Controller support would be really nice.

    I also noticed if you fire a gun the character stays in place and can’t move for the duration of shooting. He´s basically glued to the floor.

    Can this be modified, to allow a more run-and-gun style of gameplay? Think of something like MegaMen for example.

    Hi chosensha. One of the top strenght in Construct 2 is how easy it is to create the logic in your game. You do not need to know anything about scripting or even programming. If you are very new to Construct 2 then I would recommend to download the free version and play around with it for a while. When you select New, Project (in Construct 2) you will be presented with many small templates (including a very small platformer template) that are included within the tool. Spending some hours playing around with them will give you a good hint about what it takes to "do programming" in Construct 2.

    Regarding building levels using the Epic Platformer template, it is all about using the designer in Construct 2 and place graphics (drap & drop or copy & paste) on layouts and layers to make an interesting level.
