Many retro games use flashing sprites to indicate a character taking damage or a change in status.
This is a great trick for visual feedback we can even use nowadays with paper 2D and Unreal Engine 5.
In this tutorial I'll show how to achieve that through creating a dynamic material!

I got no friends to work with or anyone really. Your tutorials and everything do helps me out in hard situations and thank you so much for All that you do.

@ExoCade Год назад

Lol same situation c:

@TschenseSense Год назад

I like that the background of your game doesnt interfere visually with the foreground

@apaskiewicz Месяц назад

You are a god among mortal men. Thank you so much! I just implemented this in my side scroller (I'm following your Udemy course!) and it worked, perfectly, and the first time. Small miracles happen every day.

@mrSleepyguy1 Год назад

I'm just getting into game dev and was having trouble deciding whether to put my focus onto learning unity or unreal. Your videos helped me make my decision. Thank you so much for making these videos!

@ExoCade Год назад

Thank you so much for teaching me so much because dude I don't have many friends to work with or anyone really. Your tutorials and everything you do helps me out immensely and thank you so much for All that you do. Your work is invaluable.

@CobraCode Год назад

Thank you so much :D Really glad to hear that!

@loop3454 Год назад

This looks so amazing

@FalseOrbit Год назад

You're tutorials are always amazing. I've been making a 2.5D lovecraftian pokemon/monster taming game with a octopath traveler like art style. Your tutorials are easily amongst the best for making games like this

@CobraCode Год назад

Thank you :) That sounds awesome! Once you're at a point where you feel comfortable showing something off feel free to @ me on twitter or post something in the #show-off channel of our discord :D

@FalseOrbit Год назад

@@CobraCode no problem man! And I will definitely do that after I get to a comfortable stage to show it off.

@NazariyDudnik Год назад

Beautiful, as usual

@Glitchero0880 Год назад

Amazing tutorial!!!

@VinoVenitas 4 месяца назад

Yup this was another good one. Used this one for my game as well. If you could make a video on how to do a skilltree ... that would just be perfect

@gangwu4541 Год назад

You are amazing. Really clear instructions. Thank you again.

@CobraCode Год назад

Thank you :D

@hipjoeroflmto4764 Год назад

Ive been making my own 2.5d paper 2d game in unreal for a few years now and absolutely love making custom sprite materials fot effects ive even made some for customising outfit colors and changing eye colors ect so much u can do with materials its lovely

@CobraCode Год назад

That's awesome. Changing outfit colors is something I still have to look into. Also would love to see your work. If you feel like it you can tweet at me or drop something into the show-off channel in our discord.

@carlosrivadulla8903 Год назад

the hit stop when u slash multiple enemies is so cool. I would like to see a tut on that.

@CobraCode Год назад

I think I'm still just using the same hitstop implementation I already made a tutorial about! It works on situations like these with multiple enemies as well! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ODPE91IFCVA.html

@ericandresen680 Год назад

OMG, this is so smooth and simple to follow. Getting so eiger to learn UE5 for real now. Bought a udemy course for UE5 but it were so messy and the "teacher" just clicker around and holy cow were the blue prints messy. Loved the part where you Colapsed the nodes in to a small function, as a functional programmer i do love that stuff :D

@CobraCode Год назад

Yeah I really don't get people complaining about blueprints being inherently messy. If you use little tricks like these it's not that much different from writing clean code :)

@christopherrosario8488 Год назад

Quick tip for the material editor instead of holding "1" and left clicking, hold "S" and left click. That will create a scalar parameter that you can name instantly instead of having to convert the 1 float into a parameter. Also great video!

@CobraCode Год назад

Thank you, that's a nice shortcut!

@davidReyGD Год назад

Thank's a lot for your tutorials! Can you make a tutorial to make a minimap for a metroidvania style game?

@fancier01 Год назад

Thank you so much for this video! It helps me a lot. Could you make a video about multiplayer game (for 2D) too?

@CobraCode Год назад

Thank you! I'm actually not that great with multiplayer yet and still have to learn a lot myself, but it's something I want to cover in the future!

@hasanshafy_ Год назад

Versatility 💯

@kermosrujji9475 Год назад

amazing channel, hope this channel will grow up in the future because 2d games are the way to go for indie developers... could you make a video about a 2d aircraft shooting game with 2 stages with the use of paper zd, thx

@CobraCode Год назад

Hey, thank you for the encouraging words and suggestion. Making a shooting game like that is on my TODO list, but actually pretty low on it and I have many other things I want to cover before that.

@hipjoeroflmto4764 Год назад

This is one way to show hits for classic feel games the way i do mine is screen shake damage number splashes and blood effects and enemy reaction animation and obvious health bar reductions and knock back and stun phases this simple flash is really for more arcadey style or if the mob had like magic armor and absorbed a hit

@hipjoeroflmto4764 Год назад

There's never one right answer when making features/effects/mechanics

@hipjoeroflmto4764 Год назад

And that's the beauty of it

@hipjoeroflmto4764 Год назад

Good stuff sir always nice to come watch random paper 2d stuff to feel motivated again whenever I'm not feeling like doing stuff atm

@RockyMulletGamedev Год назад

Hey thank you for this ! I've been doing it in animation (just like you're saying at the begining of the video 😆) and it's a problem since it means canceling an animation to play a hurt animation, which doesnt always fits the game design. I didnt temper with materials yet, would be good place to start 👀

@CobraCode Год назад

:D Yeah I also think this is a good place to start. I also just started to play around with materials a bit more recently and I think there's a lot of cool things that can be done with Paper 2D here.

@UnrealEnginecode 11 месяцев назад

hi The color of my character's texture looks different from the original when using it in unreal engine, how can I fix it?

@timkeenan9629 3 месяца назад

This worked really well for the effect, but then the Editor (5.3.1) started crashing when hitting ESC during play. Still trying to get to the bottom of why, but thought it worth mentioning incase others hit the same problem

@Wizurth 2 месяца назад

Same issue, but this is appear only when i close the simulation during timeline. Error code -> Assertion failed: Index>=0 && Index

@GeorgeWood2024 2 месяца назад

Yeah same issue. Anyone found a fix?

@DailyPaily Год назад

I guess you dont have overlay mat in 2d, playing with Edge Lighting and Normal Maps could be fun for those effects.

@AlexC0601 Год назад

Can You Made a video about create enemy with paperzd ?

@CobraCode Год назад

Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah I do have plans to make a video about that, but I'm currently working on a beginner series about Paper 2D in general, so it might still be a while.
