Introduction to Game Development with Flutter and Flame
summary
A playable Mario‑style runner is built with Flutter plus the Flame engine using a sprite animation group to switch idle/run/jump/dead states, sprite sheets parsed by rows/columns, and a parallax background of about five layers. Gravity is implemented (9.8 m/s²), jump force ~350, enemies spawn roughly every 3 seconds, collisions use hitboxes to distinguish ground/enemy/powerups, and sound uses Flame audio. The demo runs across platforms and the source is published on Git.
