minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•6 days agoI love fluid movement. Doing things in a state machine is usually the way to go in 2d platformers, which is what I mainly make. I like when your character can move around without issue, so double jump, sliding, rolling, attacking etc.
minus-square@ripripripripriplinkEnglish3•6 days agoIn a broader sense, the best games are fun to simply exist in. Getting from point A to point B should be interesting from a movement perspective. Mario Odyssey is a great example. Just parkour’ing around is a blast. BotW has shield surfing and such. Lots of shooters have a bunny hop mechanic. Wave-dashing in Celeste. Etc etc.
