Gdevelop FREE VISUAL Game Engine: CONTRA Tutorial #06 - PLAYER and ENEMY DAMAGE + SCORING
Welcome to the Sixth entry in our Gdevelop FREE VISUAL Game Engine, where we are building a Contra's like game.

In this GDevelop tutorial, we will fix some issues that were following us from previous videos ( or at least try to solve them), we will implement enemy and player damage and death; and the scoring that goes with it when killing the enemy. When developing games, fixing bugs as we progress is something very important, as most of the problems in the late phases of game production, are usually associated with not having performing a constant testing along the development of the game. There is a stat that is shared between game developers that 80% of the effort put in game come from the last 20% to the production, due precisely to these aspects of game development.
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.

GDevelop is an open-source, cross-platform game engine designed for everyone - it's extensible, fast and easy to learn.
In its concept it is very similar to Scirra Construct game engine ( somewhat less polished) with a growing community developing games, tutorials and supporting the game engine development.
