For my Grade 12 (Senior to you American's =P) Computer Science Course, we were split into groups and told to make a simple game in Java.

My group decided to do a simple 2D Platformer. This video shows the final version of our game.

You play the main character 'Yo' as he attempts to reach the end of each level. He encounters dangers such as enemies, or gaps. To kill an enemy just jump on them, but don't let them touch you!

Arrow Keys - Move
Space - Jump

  • Yes, the source code is extremely useful. Can also be a template for games other people make. One thing I don't understand though is how did you guys coordinate the tiles/blocks to appear in the game levels? I see level files in the data folder, but the code doesn't show any x and y coordinates of how the tiles got there in the levels. I don't see this in any other file either.

  • @2GMichael The first line of a level is it's size. Then it just reads size.x tiles and fills the first row, and moves on to the next row and does the same thing until there are no more lines left. Its not exactly the most efficient way, but it works.

  • Is this the framerate of the actual game or do you just have a crappy screen recorder?

  • @MiniatureTuxedo Crappy recorder.

  • why does every1 say minecraft at a java game. Also when I watch this I would say "Mario" and not "Minecraft".

  • Looks great but that music loop sounds so bad.

  • No matter what kind of school that is. I WANNA GO THERE!!!

  • @JariKuipers I think people say it just because MineCraft is the most well known Java game out there, not necessarily saying that it reminds them of MineCraft.

  • @JariKuipers Minecraft is a Java game.

  • @Khalos44 Ah I see.

  • @MiniatureTuxedo Its the screen recorder. Game runs smoothly IMO.

  • I would as well like to say thank you @Khalos44 for giving us the source code to this. it is extremely helpful for getting started with learning java
