Hi,
Just signed up to PlayCanvas game engine.
I am having a lot of trouble finding a recent tutorial to make 2D video game?
Can someone post a recent tutorial for 2D video game creation with PlayCanvas?
Thank you!
PS: Perhaps add in the the next release of PlayCanvas a small 2D sample project?

As PlayCanvas doesn’t have many video tutorials, many people stick to the great documentation it provides . In your case, I have found a PlayCanvas Documentation Article. You should read through it thoroughly.
Docs Link: 2D | PlayCanvas Developer Site
Also, if you found a solution to your problem, please add “[SOLVED]” to the the title of your post so that other community members don’t get confused whether to help you or not. We would highly appreciate it as it will save lots of time.
Hi,
Thanks, but I already read through that information.
Is there documentation somewhere that shows how to setup a new project for 2D?
Even better would be a small open-source 2D game that I could load and modify.
Let me know, thanks!

Below a forum topic with more context about this project.
Flappy Bird is now over six years old! Doesn’t time fly? (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!)
When Flappy Bird first arrived on the scene, I recreated it in PlayCanvas (see original post ).

PLAY NOW
Since then, it’s been played nearly 3 million times. So I thought I’d blog about how a game like this is made.
Flappy Bird is built on a simple spritesheet:

When I built it originally, PlayCanvas didn’t have any integrated tools to make 2D game creation easy. The only th…
Done.
