How to use it in Playworks
Play a related public example, use the prompt action to start a project, then refine the generated draft until the core loop is readable and repeatable.
Tutorial steps
- Define movement and jump feel first.
- Add hazards, collectibles, and checkpoints.
- Test restart flow before adding extra levels.
Mechanics to include
- Keep the first level short.
- Make collision feedback obvious.
- Use checkpoints only after basic movement feels reliable.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Requesting many levels before jump physics work.
- Hiding failure feedback.
- Adding rewards before the core run is testable.
