24 hour exclusive - How to Turn Movement into a Game Mechanic (Patreon)
Content
Hello!
Time for another massive episode. This one is on a topic I've wanted to cover for quite some time: unique movement systems. From wingsuits to web swinging to wall runs. How do developers make movement that feels fun, satisfying, and interesting?
It was a tricky question to answer because the answer is very different depending on the game - what makes Mario good is completely different to Titanfall 2. But by looking at the individual elements, and then looking at their commonalities, I think I found some good lessons for designers.
Let me know what you think. The video goes live tomorrow.
