Learn Java 2.21 -Game Applet- Gravity Up Item Working

In this Java game applet tutorial, we will finally establish our first item, the GravUp item. This Item will increase the gravity of our game, making it harder for the player.

Hi Travis. I was just wondering with java game dev and when making a 3d game am I going to need a Photoshop expert at all. I'm all new to this and am trying to learn the basics first but am interested in building games but more 3d. Thanks for your hard work bro. And man. You must be filming 24/7 as I'm always getting emails saying you have uploaded another 4 vid dude. Good on ya. Peace brother.

@sammyjc89 When you get into 3-d you most likely need someone that can model characters, but also be able to texturize those characters, so thats where the photoshop guy would come in handy. It just depends, you could probably get by without a graphic designer but your game would suffer greatly. And yea, I'm definitely working hard haha

when i run the game my ball falls to the bottom and stays there what did i do wrong???

[mybringback]

@kingleo2312 It could be a couple of different things causing that to happen. Try to think through it step by step and figure out why it's not bouncing back up. Hah, that is such a terrible response huh?!?!! but it's about the best I can do without looking at the code. Try posting it in the forum at mybringback(dot)com and someone can help ya out. Peace buddy

@kingleo2312

Maybe your gravity is too high, or maybe you have a mistake in the Ball class 'update' method, in the 'if statement' make sure the dy becomes the gamedy instead of zero or positive. (make sure that the gamedy value is negative too, mine is set to -100, if it's 0 or positive then it won't bounce back up, just go through this part of the code first to check for errors, if it's all fine then i don't know where the problem lies)
