The first specific tutorial just so happens to have the exact info I need to make my game? Why thank you, a godsend

I'm really getting a lot out of these tutorials, thank you!

Squid, thanks for the great videos. Keep it up!

Hey there mate, I have ordered a Playdate to learn how to make games, thinking this forces me to stay bite sized and relatively simple with what I want to do. I have no experience with anything like this and it took a TON of banging my head against the wall following this guide, BUT I did it. (I kept having an enemy bounce against the edge of the screen NOT a black block/wall but the actual edge, which crashed me and I spent 45 minutes redoing it and troubleshooting, but I did fix it!) I just want to say that your video here is amazing, it really helped me understand how these functions work, why they work, and gave me ideas on how to utilize them in other ways. It is my dream to make a video game (however simple) and you have helped me take that first step. Thanks so much for this video. Additionally, in this video you had 179 subs you showed at the end, I am SO happy you are at over 100 times that now :D you deserve it! Cheers

Thanks so much for the video and sharing the code, this was super helpful making my first game in Pulp!

Thanks for all content dude! You saved my life S2

Thanks, this is super helpful! If you continue making Pulp videos, I'd love for to see you flesh out that platformer from the first video.

Great video! Thanks so much for doing this!

Very cool. I can't wait to try this for myself

Incredible video!

So i've been poking at pulp a bit since it was released but i was just having a hard time wrapping my head around the way it handles some of the aspects of the game (not to mention that the games I want to write are not exploration/adventure games, so they don't easily fit into the Pulp way of doing things. Regardless, this video really helped me "get it". Thank you!

i love these tutorials so much!! also, any updates on the fishing rpg?

I didnt even now shake before but it makes my game so much better

Sick Vids! you should make a pulp game in one week vid!

I made this, and added a Health Boost to give you an extra 3 hearts!

Great tutorial! I was able to follow and complete the project. Just had a quick question on the health pickup. I created an item and wrote this script for my healthPickup item: on collect do if health==maxHealth then sound "healthNo" end if health

great video very useful, i just couldnt get the hearts to display properly

I"m having trouble trying to swap original tiles behind the spikeball movements. I dont like the swap to white option as it erases any custom tiles after the spikeballs movement. Any suggestions?

incredible helping video. thank you so much. by the way I have a question : when I put a script on an "item", it doesn't disappear anymore. how did you put a sound on the key you collect and make it disappear at the same time. thank you and congrats

Can u make a tutorial on how to make a turn based game like FF or pokemon?

is there anyway to play music on a loop in the background?

Is it possible to use pulp to make games that don't look like bitsy games?

How would I go about adding sprite switching based on movement direction for this?

I’m not sure if it’s possible. But I want to know if there’s a way to switch Character sprites in the sense that like there’s one character that goes faster than the other so you have to switch. Because I’m currently making a game thanks to your help and I want to add this other character sprite to the game.

Could you make a video on how to make the game save-able so you can save at certain points or leave the game and come back to the same spot if that’s even possible on pulp. That would be really helpful!

can i use some of this to make my own game?

in my game im using drones instead of spike balls but when i start the game they just get teleported to the top of the screen.

Im stuck in the health system section at the start of healthCount, line 6 isnt correct. Did i miss something? on load do maxHealth = 10 health = maxHealth end heartCount = 0 heartDrawY = 0 while heartCountheartCount then healthComparator-- if healthComparator==heartCount then spriteToSwap = "half heart" else spriteToSwap = "full heart" end end if health>heartCount then spriteToSwap = "full heart" end end

idk why, but the Player stopped moving after adding the gate sprite.

I did exactly what you did in the video, but my spike balls do not bounce and just destroy everything they go through until they hit a wall. Once the spike balls hit the wall you can not move anymore and the spikes stop alternating. I copied and doubled checked everything from the vid so I am very confused

This reminds me of smile basic language.

You lost me at the zelda heart. Confusion of the highest orda.
