SDL2 Santa game tutorial 🎅

Thu, 23rd November 2023

It's that time of the year - Christmas and the holiday seasons are upon us, and so Santa is getting ready for another long night of deliveries on Christmas Eve. It's also time for a new game tutorial!

This new tutorial will guide the reader through how to make a game based around the concept of Santa Claus delivering gifts to good children (and a lump of coal to the naughty ones!). This is a short, simple game, that sees the player take on the role of santa in an endless side scrolling adventure, with the goal of dropping gifts down chimneys.

This tutorial contains 15 parts and can be found on the tutorials page, or by following the link below:

This tutorial set is part of the SDL2 tutorials bundle, so you will need to purchase that in order to get access to the code. Those who already bought the tutorial set will be able to download this update at no extra cost.

Binary downloads (for x86 Linux and Windows) for the game itself can also be found on itch.io at the following page:
