đ„ A Creatorâs Guide to Postmortems & Game Design Docs
Whatâs the shortcut to creating a hit world in Meta Horizon? There isnât one. The most successful worlds are the result of careful planning and intentional execution, which is exactly what MHCP mentor GausRoth shows you how to achieve in this creator workshop. Starting with a postmortem (a look-back on finished work) on your last project, youâll learn how to extract real lessons, build a Game Design Document (GDD) that turns those insights into direction, and use task management to execute like a pro.

Issues with Create your first world tutorial, part 2
Continuing on from Part 1 ( Issues with Create your first world tutorial, part 1 | Meta Community Forums - 1344833 ). I went through Part 2 of the tutorial, there are 3 blockers ( 2, 8 and 10 ). These blockers could cause new users to get frustrated and not continue using the software. Here's the doc listing them ( and other smaller issues ). https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pmZ0k54DJpKKGJo8X1JuqJJeA0Rf5YyAER5bYpVCLFY/edit?usp=sharing Hope this helps - I'll move on to the next tutorial docs tomorrow or Monday. MalIssues with Create your first world tutorial, part 1
Hi there, I just downloaded Worlds Desktop Editor, and was going through the first tutorial that was linked from the editor when I started it up. There were a few issues that would cause blockages for new users, so I created a document on Google Drive to document them. If they can be fixed, especially the selection bug, then it would hopefully cause less friction for new users. Here's the page... https://developers.meta.com/horizon-worlds/learn/documentation/get-started/create-your-first-world And here's the Google Doc with the issues. The most blocking one is issue 2), the selection issue, but I documented them all as I went along. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VtBxzFPoYNjFWJW6-IxJsbBSrOrqRF4vI41rG7_7NmU/edit?usp=sharing Hopefully it makes sense - I look forward to going through further parts of the tutorial over the weekend!Fast-track your Docs with GitHub Templates
Hi all- Thanks for attending the Build Along session today on how to get your tutorial submissions submitted for the competition via GitHub. The video should be available soon, but attached is a PDF of the slides I presented today. I did not get to the 'setting up VSCode for markdown editing' section of the slides in the live presentation, but they are here for reference. Please ask any questions here about this presentation on how to use GitHub! Questions about the contest in general should be submitted to the Competition post thread here.New Resource: Meta Horizon Creator Manual - Technical Reference
Hey creators! Weâve released a comprehensive technical reference for Meta Horizon Worlds that should make your dev life much easier. What is it? The Meta Horizon Creator Manual is a community-sourced, Meta-endorsed, guide that documents core systems including gizmos, scripting, physics, entities, networking, grabbables, attachables, and more. It's a go-to reference when you want to know how parts of Meta Horizon work or what some of the TypeScript does (the guide focuses on horizon/core). Note: the Creator Manual is not a tutorial; it is a technical manual focused on answering technical questions about Horizon and its "engine". For tutorials and introductory content, visit the creator documentation site. When you'll want it and how to use it Any time you are wondering "how does this system work?" or "what does this property do?" or "how do these APIs interact?" then you should open up this doc. It has a thorough table of contents at the top you can use to jump around. And at the bottom of the doc there is a list of every CodeBlockEvent and every TypeScript symbol in horizon/core; you can use those sections to jump around the doc as well. Forum posts If you find an error in the guide, want to recommend an edit, have a question, or feel that there is information missing, create a post in this forum including the relevant details. Please be specific about the section you are referring to and the edits you would make; if you are suggesting a new section, please describe where it would go, what it would cover, and why it isnât covered by other existing resources. Be sure to include the Creator Manual label any time you post in the forum about the guide. Thanks! Have fun building. We hope this helps!Horizon World Tutorial â Player Management â Part 3 â Sprint
In the previous tutorial, we introduced double jump mechanics that were automatically applied to players upon entering the World. In this instalment, we will build upon that foundation by implementing a sprint mechanic, allowing players to move more swiftly for a limited duration. Additionally, we will create a straightforward Heads-Up Display (HUD) to visually monitor the player's sprint stamina, ensuring users can easily keep track of their sprinting capabilities during gameplay.
