Any guides to recommend for advanced player movement?

For example I don’t like when I’m running to the right and I jump and I can just fly to the left and things like that. changing his velocity in the air as well as things like wall jumping, sliding etc.

Also I’m wondering if it’s best to learn stuff like this now or just keep working on creating levels and learning little bits as I go? I want the whole game to be focused around good movement so I’m really eager to learn this stuff now. I’ve learnt to do basic player movement as well as have level hazards and enemies that kill you and I’m kindof stuck on where to move forward. Any advice would be great. I just don 't know whereto take my learning right now as things either seem too difficult for my level or I’m just doing the same things over again. Thank you :slight_smile:

You might enjoy my article on 2D animation methods in Unity. I’m an old Mario (SMB3, of course) player myself, so I totally get the importance of good controllable movement. I put some effort into that in this article, and showed how to do it (three different ways!).

I did enjoy your article! Very well-researched. You have summarized a very complicated set of choices that every animation situation faces, and each step of your three processes made perfect sense to me. Thanks!
