These are the links to a platformer tutorial and a multiplayer tutorial respectively.

You can use the platformer scripts from me - With credits and add colors like orange and red then give them my scripts and your done!

Provide an actual engine, not a project. You shouldn't expect users to filter out the appropriate platforming scripts from a project which you had provided.

Great, an advertiser. That's barely helpful on forums.

Also you can find some tutorials and tips on Scratch Wiki.

I originally thought that he was advertising as well, but on second thoughts he could have provided the project to genuinely help. I don't like accusing people, so I just edited that part out in my previous post and asked him to provide an engine instead of a full project.

I could think like that too if they didn't provide their profile link also. We kinda need to go back on topic though, so let's try not to say more about this on here.

Back to the OP's question, there are several (if not tons) of tutorial about platformers which you can find very easily, but the ones from Scratch Wiki and @griffpatch are my choices. For the 2nd player, you can just duplicate the first player sprite and assign it to different keys (eg. The first playfer moves with arrow keys and the second moves with WASD).

He asked for help creating the lava sprite itself. Read the post carefully please…

For every part in your game, try to get all their basic ideas. Will one player float on lava or “die” when it touches? Will lava moves realistically from a place to another? Or will it be static like spike things in other platformers? Or what else?

do you expect someone to want dynamic water physics lol

generally there's a reset custom block that sets the player back to the beginning of the level. call this block when you touch lava (assuming you want static lava or bad objects)

Yes? After all I just want people to be more creative.
