Regardless of whether you're building a multiplayer battle royale game, a dungeon crawler, or even a survival game, they all have one thing in common: player movement. Having players being able to move is integral, as most games' primary mechanics are based on this core concept. And, with local multiplayer games, it's important to set this movement up in a way that allows machines to later detect multiple players using different controllers. Thankfully, with Unity's new Input System, this has never been easier. The Input System was designed with different controllers in mind, so you can easily set up key bindings for multiple different actions - whether that's based on keyboard, joystick, mouse, or even regular gamepad controllers. Through this system, you can also quickly detect key events like players joining from a different controller, lost connections, and even when different controller bindings should be used between regular play and the UI. In this local co-op game tutorial, you're going to practice and learn how to use Unity and the Unity Input System in order to set up a player character ready for multiplayer games. Specifically, you're going to create and code the actions and bindings needed for a platformer-style, 2D character. By the end, your character will be able to smoothly move across the stage with ease! Not only will you learn key fundamentals for player movement in general, but also develop it with a system that is perfect for integrating multiplayer elements. Though there is plenty of room for expansion past this tutorial - and many elements to consider with multiplayer - you'll be firmly on track to bring your local co-op games to life. Though you're expected to know some Unity and C#, this tutorial is perfect for beginners interested in local multiplayer!
