Part 18 on our serie How to create a CONTRA Like game with Gdevelop FREE VISUAL Game Engine.

In this video, we are going to fix some bugs in the fall through the platform's system, and implement the water walking. We are also going to implement the fire-down mechanic that was still missing due to missing animations. We will also explain how we have generated the animation and the workflow that we have followed.

Finally, we will fix some more bugs associated with the bullet’s layers.

If you want to learn how to make or design games, you have come to the right place. We are taking the full process to new levels. We are checking on the mechanics that we are implemented and then testing them in the game to make sure they are working correctly. So this is a really good course to learn on how to develop games.

We will upload all the new assets to to the ITCHIO and we are thinking in opening a Github for the project, let us know which you like the most in the comments below.
