[For web version] In case keyboard doesn't work try refreshing the page and clicking a few times in the game window, I still haven't figured out why that happens sometimes.

About:

This is my fourth time participating in a game jam, this time some of the assets are made by my colleagues. This is also my first platformer game, and well, programming physics in a platformer isn't all that trivial.

As usual, made without a traditional game engine, used C++ and SFML. Levels were made in my level editor ZLE.

Source code for this project is available here.

The theme for the jam is Death is an opportunity! The jam lasted for 4.5 days (effectively 4 days European time). 

Controls:

  • A/D or arrow keys to move
  • Space/W/arrow keys to jump

how to learn SFML....

(+1)

Well I think there is amazing documentation on their website so I'd start from there.

Though it is also important for you to know a bit of C++, and for that there are also many online tutorials.

Good luck!

So, are there any recommended websites for me to learn programming? I hope they support Chinese. I can’t register for Google from within China, so I can’t access some websites, and I genuinely want a Google account—I hope you can help me with that. Finally, I’d also like to ask what I should learn before studying C++. I sincerely hope to receive your reply.

First of all, hopefully you can access the SFML website (https://www.sfml-dev.org/) as that is where you'll have to eventually download files from. I also think all of the documentation there for SFML is great.

When it comes to C++ I would recommend Youtube tutorials but since that likely requires you to have a Google account, maybe you can start with a book? Personally, I am not much of a reader so I've started by watching video tutorials on Youtube and a lot of trying to do things myself, back when I started around 2019. I've heard many people say they started by reading a book.

And before studying C++, no idea, depends on how much about programming in general do you know? C++ is known for being one of the more difficult languages to learn. Before I started learning it I knew some basics of Python and that is about it.
