Hi! I want to make a scrolling platformer, but I'm not sure how. Does anyone else know?

Tutorial on Scratch Wiki:
https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/Scrolling_Platformer_Tutorial

Change ur Movement with Two New Variables X and Y and have those change the pos of the platform/ground

This tutorial by griffpatch is very helpful.

Make 1 variable: scroll x. Go to your levels and apply this code:

when green flag clicked
forever
set x to (scroll x)
change x by ((scroll x) * ((480) * ((1) - (1)))
end

Apply this code to your levels.
Then, go to your sprite/character and put in:

when green flag clicked
if <key [right arrow v] pressed?> then
change [scroll x v] by (-5) 
if <key [left arrow v] pressed?> then
change [scroll x v] by (5) 

(for some reason I can't put the left arrow if statement out of the right arrow if statement so just make sure that you put that after the right arrow if statement and make sure to put a forever loop around the whole 2nd script I gave you.) -_-
I'm assuming you know the jumping code, so I hope this helps with your scrolling platformer
