Hello, developers of Robloxđź‘‹!

I recently developed a 2D game in Roblox Studio and found the process to be quite challenging—especially with things like collision detection and performance optimizations. After realizing how tough it can be, I decided to create a solution to make 2D game development easier for everyone: a brand-new plugin specifically designed for 2D games in Roblox.

This plugin handles everything you need, including:

  • Advanced collision detection
  • Sprite sheet animation functions
  • Performance optimizations
  • Both X and Y scrolling (Good for making 2D cameras)
  • Functions for simplifying moderate/hard tasks in 2D game development
  • And a lot more!

And much more!

For free, you can get access to this powerful tool and make 2D games with ease.

Here’s a showcase of a game I created using an earlier version of this plugin:
Bird [DEMO] - Roblox

Plugin link: Paper2D v0.1 - Creator Store (roblox.com)

The link to the Paper2D framework documentation: Paper2D version 1 doccumentation - Google Docs

You see the pencil at the bottom of your main post? Click on that.

Then you just need to look at something “Development Discussion” just under the post title box.

It was made for a game jam thats why it has some bugs, no one ever saw it sped up like that so i might have to take a look, you cant move while in the air, W, space, up arrow, X, or Z to jump, A is left, D is right, enter to pause, you should jump 2 times before moving

Oh. It’s faster because I am using 240 FPS. You need to make sure anything you code works at any framerate.
