Good Day Everyone!

Hello there~ I'm Don, 20 years old and a newbie programmer from the Philippines! I have tested various SDK and Engines like Corona, Cocos-2dx, MOAI, AndEngine, Libgdx and finally, Gideros. I seem to like Gideros the most but unfortunately, I don't know how to start a platformer game because the documentation is kinda well.. I don't know. I can only do dragging movements like the one in the samples, but that doesn't seem to apply much in a platformer game lol

So anyway, I hope I can create wonderful games with Gideros!
Thank you for creating Gideros, makes lives easier

Please check out my little developer diary here: http://dscc-gamedev.tumblr.com

It's kinda hard to learn Programming and Spriting at the same time *sigh* I wonder how many months would it take to release a decent demo hmm.. well, that is all for the introduction!

ps. sorry for my semi-horrible English. I'm still learning lol

Hi @doncarbajosa and welcome to the mad fun house

Thank you, @Scouser!
Oh and I believe I heard that kind of welcome somewhere.. LMFAO XD

Well anyway, do you happen to know any tutorials about 2d Platformer Games? I'm trying to create a platformer game but I do not seem to know where to start.

EDIT: Simple movements like Move left, right, Jump and Attack. Camera movements when the player moves, adding enemies, and the use of sprite sheets?|
