Uploaded January 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
In this lesson we'll begin adding and implementing 3D 'gumdrop' enemies into our game level! This lesson will have us export the rigged, animated enemy model from Blender into our Godot project as a GLTF file, create a 'proper' enemy object scene with a collision shape, and program it to move back and forth between two walls. This lesson introduces three new GDScript programming tidbits!: the 'await' keyword, plus creating both a Timer and a Tween - solely with code! By the end of this lesson we'll duplicate the enemy and place them around our game level. In part 2, we'll make the enemies hurt us, and make the enemies squashable when the player jumps on top of one!
