In a later chapter, we’ll also implement a wall jumping mechanic that allows the player to “push off” of a nearby wall to gain extra upward and outward momentum while midair.
How It Works
Let’s get an overview of how we expect this system to work before we start poking into the code. This movement system will operate with a few concepts that are similar to that of our player movement ...
