The latest trailer for Skull Horde by @8BitSkull has us on the edge of our seats. It’s shaping up to be a great test of what Defold can handle, with countless enemies swarming the screen.

Shared the part 3 of the #Defold tutorial series. In this one, I explained how to set up a responsive GUI, basics of collisions and coded the basic enemy AI. This was the last part shared on Ramadan 🌙 You can watch it on: youtu.be/VLXY6e06xwk #madewithdefold #tutorial
