Does your character have a rigidbody2D component attached to it? If so, then make sure to freeze rotations. It’s under “Constraints” in the inspector.

thank you, i freeze my Z axis and all work well, but i don’t understand why, because it’s 2D enviroment there are Y axis and X axis, why is there Z axis ?

2D motion has three degrees of freedom:

  • Translation along the X-Axis
  • Translation along the Y-Axis
  • Rotation around the Z-Axis

In short, in 2D you cannot move along the Z-Axis but you can rotate around the Z-Axis.
