Right click in the Animations window and select Add Animation:Īs you might have noticed, we haven’t actually added an animation, but this is part of the first step towards doing that. Now we need animations for things like BigIdle, Running, Jumping and all the rest of Mario’s animations. So far all we’ve added is our animation for SmallIdle. Rename the animation from Default to SmallIdle: Alternatively, you can use the magnifying glass tool in the upper right corner of the image editor. Hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard and use the scrollwheel on your mouse to zoom in on the Mario sprite.

As when adding behaviors earlier, click the Plus icon to add an Instance variable. With Mario selected, click Instance Variables in the Properties bar on the left. Things like if he’s jumping, how much health he has, or how many coins he has – among other things. Instance Variables are like little boxes we can put information into to tell us different things about what is occurring with Mario. Next up we’re going to add some Instance Variables to Mario. You’ll also probably notice that Mario has no animations, and is always the same static image when moving left, right, or jumping – don’t worry, we’re going to animate Mario further on in this tutorial. This is thanks to the Solid behavior on our Ground object, and the Platform behavior on our Mario object. Not a whole lot happening yet, but you’ll notice that Mario can move left and right, as well as jump. Now if you click Run Layout you can test out the game. As you did earlier when adding the Solid behavior to our Ground object, click the Plus icon and select the Platform behavior: Then select Behaviors in the Properties panel. Next let’s add the Platform behavior to Mario. Now to keep things organized, drag and drop SmallIdle Mario from Misc to the Mario folder under Object Types: Simply drag and drop the SmallIdle Mario object into the layout:
With our Ground object working as a solid platform, it’s time to add Mario to our game. Now the Ground object will behave like a solid platform. In this case, our temporary Ground object: You’ll see it in the Behaviors list for the object you added it to. With the Ground sprite selected, you’ll be able to see the Behaviors link in the Properties bar on the left:Ĭlick Behaviors and in the dialog that appears click the Plus icon to add a new behavior: To give it some functionality, we’ll need to give it a behavior. Right now this Ground sprite is nothing more than a picture on the layout. We’ll implement the original Super Mario Bros. Resize your newly made Ground sprite as shown below:įor the moment this simple black rectangle will suffice as our ground graphics for the level. Next, let’s select the Fill tool and make our sprite black:Įxit the image editor and you’ll see the sprite on the layout: First, let’s resize it by selecting the resize tool as indicated in red: This will bring up the editing menu for our soon-to-be Ground sprite.
You’ll notice the mouse is now a crosshair. We’re going to name this one Ground.Īfter inserting your object, you will be taken back to your layout. Select Sprite and in the text box at the bottom of the menu you can immediately name your object. It will bring up the Insert New Object menu. Right click the Misc folder and select Insert New Object: We’re going to use the Misc object folder for a number of temporary objects we’ll use during the making of our game. In the Mario object folder we’re going to have our player (Mario) sprites. Name the first one Mario and the second one Misc (For Miscellaneous) In the projects panel by default on the right side of Construct 2, right click Object types and add two new subfolders. This time around we’re going to insert Mario and get his animations working just the way we want them to. Welcome to the second part of our Super Mario Bros.
