How to make a platformer in Gamemaker (the easy way) #3
28This platformer video tutorial series teaches you how to create a platformer in simple steps.
This time we add a double jump mechanic, that enbable to jump again mid air. The issue is here that we need to artifically limit the double jump after a short timer runs down to avoid instantly double jumping again (or if you have god-like reflexes, then never mind :D ).
That's it!
Tldr this video:
variable to double jump
timer to block instant double jump after jump
