Good day,
So I am very very new to this scene and I am trying to create a basic platformer with punishing falls similar to a getting over it style game. I have basic character movement and dynamic jumping down however I do not understand how I can maintain my speed while in the air from jumping. it just doesnt feel good being able to let go of a direction key and stopping mid air. I want to be able to continue through the air in a sort of arc like a natural jump and I cant for the life of me figure out how to do this and im sure it is very simple. Any help for guidance would be greatly appreciated as I am still learning and would like to understand how to accomplish this. The current code I have below is just moving left and right and the dynamic jump. Again thank you for any knowledge you share.
