Hey there! 👋🐷
Thanks to everyone who supported the book during its development, I was able to finish all 12 original chapters! This means that you are getting concrete, polished, production-ready content! 😎
There is still more work to do: Intro, Outro, Conventions, Gamification…But the core content is done and ready to help you make professional Platformer games.
The book's content uses Godot 4.0 so it’s the perfect time to get up to date as Godot Engine just released its first Release Candidate for version 4.0.
The price bump reflects the hard work put into the content in these past months. Thank you to those who trusted me and made the investment, you’re getting a valuable product!
Also, for those who need more safety, now you have concrete content to work with and make or improve your platformer game!
But wait, there's more! 🤩
In the upcoming weeks, I'll be working on a custom recipe requested by Poila Pan. It's all about the classic Megaman X Wall Jump mechanic.
Here’s a list of all the upcoming custom recipes and their sponsors!
Sponsor | Custom Recipe | Finished |
---|---|---|
Poila Pan | Wall Jump | ✖ |
Dave | Weapon Swap | ✖ |
twomack | Grappling Hook | ✖ |
Tom | Parallax Background | ✖ |
kycho | Player Properties | ✖ |
Collin | Keybinding Interface | ✖ |
The custom recipes are coming soon, and they will be like DLC for our book! Some valuable extra content that bumps up the book possibilities 😍
Everyone who gets the book before all the custom recipes are done will get access to them for no extra charges!
I want to make sure that everyone who believed in my work and supported me will get even more value from the book.
Those who are yet to get the book can rest assured they are making a great investment that will only get better with time! 💪
Please note that due to my commitment to writing a book for Packt 🧡, this may take some time to happen, but I promise to keep you posted!
In the meantime, take your game development skills to the next level with the Platformer Essentials Cookbook! 🎮🧑🍳
That’s it, thank you so much for your support!
Keep developing and until the next time!~
