How To Make A Third Person Shooter / Controller in Game Builder Garage ( Tutorial + Download)

Today I’m showing you a method I came up with to easily create a third person shooter style camera and character controller in Game Builder Garage. It is very conceptually simple and uses only about 34 nodon! Instead of having to apply vector math and rotate the camera point around the character, this method uses the camera’s own rotation values to apply them to our objects to create the same illusion. We then use intelligently placed objects and a free-slide offset camera to finish off the 3rd person shooter look and controls.
