- How to Code a Platformer Game in Scratch Code Blocks with griffpatch. Part 2 of this tutorial covers moving back and forward between level scenes, or to the next level. Also we switch to using Sprite Sensing instead of Color Sensing for much more colorful levels! Lastly we fix the common bug of getting stuck in the ground when changing level - super! My tutorials are for all budding game & software developers, so Scratch On!

When I put the reset and begin level and pressed green flag it broke 😢 PLEASE RESPOND
i dont't understand what you just said but i hope griff helps you@@carpamart1896
i don`t now how to help sorry :(
I play penguinmod!
Ok so when I organize the coding and press start my character won’t move or jump
Me: looks away for 1 second.
Griffpatch: Made the rest of the game.
@GoldenLightFB I hate when that happens
So true
@GoldenLightFB Oops I accidentally recreated the entire earth and solar system! What a disaster.
Oops I accidentally recreated the entire universe! What a disaster.
@@shreenakodaemploymentagenc4134 * smacks head* Not again!
One thing to note if you are having problems The Level sprite must have a 'clear' transparent background, no filled background behind the player. If you want a background behind the player, this must remain in the stage backdrop.
ALSO - If the player is not moving off screen, try reducing the "IF x position > 235" to something just a little less until it works (Try > 230)
Thanks for the information
Thanks for info sir

This channel is amazing! You explain it in a simple way and are enthusiastic about it.
great job :)
so true :D
I ♥ scratch! It's the best coding thing out there for beginners and I am so glad you are making tutorials for us (the viewers). I have been on scratch for over a year, and I have never heard of the techniques you use. Thank you!

yes
I was rewatching the og platformer tutorial when suddenly griffpatch started posting the tile scrolling tutorial series and it really made me happy
You have made me soooo happy with this series, 10/10 content
Hey I’m not sure what I’ve done wrong but as soon as I drop in the turn 180 degrees my sprite flips and I don’t know what to do, it’s in the define collisions direction script
This was so helpful! Keep up the good work!
I love these tutorials! I love how you showed your tip on how to flip it; without making it go on side and not on the edge! Best tip!
Glad it was helpful! - I like to include these things when I can :D
@@griffpatch Thanks! :D
What was the tip :(
@@sideofsalt9262 just wait in this vid
@@griffpatch When I go on the edge I glitch out :(
out of all you're serieses, this motivates me to do scratch the most
Also, i just wanted to add that the 'sprite' collisions also reduce lag
Thanks For this awesome tutorial. :)
It's really hard to keep track of everything but in the end I managed to do it! Thank you so much!

Today my friend told me he likes cheese
Cool, I also like Cheese
@@SeanHEDHOG360why?
@@pupnub You know pupnub? I don’t necessarily know why
@@SeanHEDHOG360 I would like to apologize on causing this existential crisis you are now having. I foolishly believed that why someone may like cheese is a cookie cutter answer, but I see that that presumption was incorrect. Alas, though there is no way to repair the damage I have caused, I would like to provide a possible out of this mental prison, perhaps you could say, “I like cheese because 🧀” This provides a good explanation to an otherwise impossible to answer question. If this does work I am thankful, but still deeply sorry for inflicting this stress upon your soul. But if not I am truly sorry for what I have caused, and I hope that somehow you will find your answer.

I’m having trouble with getting this to work 27:39 I’ve checked and my coding seems to be the same as yours but I can’t get it to work
This is like Super Mario Bros. Special, an obscure Mario game that does screen by screen levels since scrolling is much difficult. And it also places things like items in a spot that won't jiggle when you try to make it scroll.
I missed your high-quality tutorials. These feel like they could air on TV with how professional they are! Good work!

@@henryonokpasa3266 yeah he is is there a problem?
Wow the result's are soo good! i just can't stop doing new levels Thanks!!!
Hello, Griffpatch I just wanted to thank you for the tutorial it helped me a lot the only thing that I am thinking is that like the way you teach nobody else can copy that
that was some amazing teaching, thanks again
Glad it helped!
Griffpatch i ❤ ur content
30:05 you can make an if statement to detect if the scene variable is more then our max scene or less then our min scene

Your always making more amazing content! Keep up the good work!
nice
this is the only tutorial i've watched so far and i've only watched episode 1 and 2 and it's going great😁
when i ran this i was colliding and thinking, "i did all the steps but its still happening"..and then boom at 27 min you fixed that issue too. Super excited about this tutorial. Thank you so much!
he doesn't just teach a how to make a game but also gives us tips to use in our own game thx griffpatch
I like your videos your scratch tutorials will always work, other scratch youtube channels game don't work they complicate it. Thank you
you do get this one is breaking right i am literally puting the exact same thing thing and it wont let me switch levels
yes they are good !!!¦3

1:24 I don't have this issue, but I like my levels this way because I like the color palette of black and white because my games are often very simple, but with fun gimmicks like jumping on the mouse pointer to get to other areas, etc.
nice video!!!!!!!! it helped me a lot! i'm a new scratch developer and your assets helped me a lot!
3:38 I have a simple solution to add the advantages of touching color to touching sprite: Don’t make the level all one sprite! Have each different interaction in the level be it’s own sprite, then position the sprites in the correct alignment
If you find any problems with this suggestion, feel free to inform me!
i dont have a question about that but when i did the touching sprite thing his way my character stopped touchingthe platforms do you know why
14:31 XDD "obviously banana is not gonna cut it XD"
I used scratch for almost a year and I get better when I watch griff patch’s videos no one can stop me
You are right there! :)
The one time griffpatch told us to NOT click "run without screen refresh"! Love ya griffpatch.
"Hello fellow Scratchers!" Let me be honest, it has to be my favorite line of every griffpatch video lol
true
"Hello fellow Scratchers!" - Griffpatch
Same with me
Small note - You can use "set touching to (touching level * 1)" rather than using an if statement.
Yeah, advanced scratch tutorial for beganner. And very good tutorial! Hope i can master some of it by watching this turorial.
The way i did it was using the touching color blocks is easy because my blocks had a black outline so i could make it all kinds of different colors, plus the outline makes it POP out.
mine have outlines but I don't use touching color blocks
13:13 Fun fact: Instead of having to select everything using Ctrl + A (Cmd + A for Mac) then flipping it horizontally/vertically, if you flip a costume/backdrop horizontally/vertically without selecting ANYTHING at all, it flips the whole costume/backdrop horizontally/vertically! Same when you delete stuff from the costume/backdrop without selecting anything (it deletes everything in the costume/backdrop but not the costume/backdrop itself)!
25:22 - let's shake things up and get un-stuck!
Griffpach: the historical poet
Thank you so much for these tutorials😀
yo griffpatch, your videos are sick and they are really healpfull
Me: **about to draw**
Griffpatch: **post a video**
Me: screw it im opening scratch
lol same but doing homeworks xd

Masterpiece of a tutorial series, your, work, is, AMAZING!
Even though this didn't work fully for me, some of it did and thank you!
Sometimes I make the Level move when I press the controls instead of the level changing when you enter the next scene, but I prefer when the level changes scenes like the way you did it instead. I haven't gotten it to work as well yet, so it's just an idea.
Tip: If you have the border of the platform to the color of which the player if coded to collide with, then there's no need to do all the extra color collision stuff.
true
Thank you so much we can all see how much effort you put into these!
My son is LOVING your Video's he just adores them!
Thanks for those scratch dev tools! They help me clean up my code and they help me find blocks!
Draw the level in bitmap mode and it always flips exactly around the center of the canvas and is lined up perfectly with the first one.
and then vector it
@@yourboyfriend5581 that doesn't work
@@itz_nardos1234bruh
Even with the “fix collision in direction” set up exactly how you have it, sometimes I’ll transfer between levels and even though it doesn’t look like it’s colliding, I won’t be able to move unless I lift my sprite up, drop it down, and go from there. Is there anything that could be causing this?
I’ve tried moving the sprite into the level and activating the section of code, and that part still works. It just doesn’t work on some levels when I’m just playing through or testing the levels.
I have the same problem, did you ever fix this?
@@bichaelafton for me it seemed to work to just remake the shape to be level again. I looked at the character’s height and one platform was a single pixel higher.
Tysm! Helped a lot!
The way I enjoy my time is that I watch griffpatchs video and learn from him to make the most creative game!
I couldn't have done it without you! I wouldn't be where I am today without people like you by my side. I can't thank you enough for being there in my time of need. You have no idea how much your help means to me. For all the things you do, both big and small, I want to thank you. You made this game into a coding experience! I ❤ Scratch and you!

An Appel a day keeps the doctor away 18:55
Great Tip for starters , when seting or changing a variable make sure its the right one
Hey I’m not sure what I’ve done wrong but as soon as I drop in the turn 180 degrees my sprite flips and I don’t know what to do, it’s in the define collisions direction script
actually with your pen effects tutorial we can make a check which checks if we are touching the color black and the color woant change that much either so we could check for collisions with the black color outline we can use color sensing all the time again. but If any non interactable object like in the background is black. you will need to make some space for it in your level.
i saw an appel appear :O 18:50
Personally, watching these videos to refresh my skills, I prefer using the v^ characters in the costume names to sense when I can change the scenes. So the levels feel more open, especially when I make sky-themed levels.

@@ItsTheAlex Your "sprite rotation" is probably set to all around. Change it to left/right and you'll be all good.
@@lemmy15yt I thought of that but nope, it’s a much dumber reason I just figured out. I clicked the 180 so the sprite turned and just never reset, all sorted now thanks!!!
Thank you so much for helping because at first I couldn't make anything in scratch
Soooooooooooooo helpful, I really needed this! Brilliant.😄😄😄😄😄
What other things will you add, like- the moving obstacles, spikes, saws, or anything else??
Animation next with hitboxes, then we'll do more complex things like handling the slopes, and moving platforms, etc
@@griffpatch that sounds fun
@@griffpatch sounds great
@@griffpatch Ok, Thanks
11:58 Actually, I don’t.
I want to have it so when the sprite is in the middle of the stage X-wise, a further positive x step will scroll the screen to the right, and a negative one will move it to the left.
I also want to have it so when the sprite is in the middle of the stage Y-wise, the screen will scroll the same way it would with x.
And I’d also like for them to both work at the same time
Search for infinite scrolling background tutorials and use that logic, stopping the scroll when x = 0
14:30 "But obviously banana isn't going to cut it." got me laughing lol
The ASMR nobody knew we needed
I probably found a problem, in the part of changing the scenarios, the player gets stuck on the edge and is teleporting from one side of the map to the other in looping. What do I do ;-;?
if your getting stuck between scene 1-2, just make sure scene 1 is named scene1 and not scene.
@@Nightman5694 but i named like that
I used your some tile scrolling platformer scripts to make a rpg adventure game
Nice!
@@griffpatch : )
I love you videos so much they are super helpful
your channel is simply outstanding Griffpatch
At 18:05 why don't you add a check to ensure that the SCENE # variable doesn't go below 1? Because if you're in scene one and your X Position is < 235, the Scene # variable will become 0 😬
_edit:_ Nevermind you fixed it at 29:59! :P
You are quite right, there are loads of extra safety checks and ways to solve every problem. I try to do the bear minimum that works well so as not to boost up my tutorial :) it's a tricky compromise at every stage!

You should add a "Flip over center of canvas" for the costume editor in scratch addons! That would be very helpful!
Yeah
thank you griff patch you have helped me so much!
Thank you this really helped me be able to code platforming game on scratch.😅😊
MY PC BROKE
Lol
Hey, griffpatch! I have a problem: I don't want to prevent a collision bug, but when the scene changes with a different platform position, I want the character to NOT change the scene. I maybe know how to fix that, but I rather listen to your suggestion. So HOW do I NOT change the scene when the next scene platform can make the character stuck?
If you want it so the player cant go back to the previous scene, make a wall in the level sprite where that scene is and make it only a few pixels wide so the player doesnt get stuck in the wall
griffpatch deserves a sub. AWESOME VIDEO. easy to follow
Helps a lot ty!!
I added that in level 1 you can't go to the left without a left wall!

27:00 I removed the Turn 180 Degrees so it has a cool animation where the player sort of digs out of the ground and stays on top
Edit: DONT do this. It will bug out your game in the future
Don’t remove it?
