Ello! I am working on making a game design proposal for my final project this semester and coding is anything but my forte. I had 2 ideas in mind but the one I really want to do requires the ability for the protagonist to jump. Before I turn in the proposal, I wanted to see if anyone could help me figure this out. Thank you in advance for your time and patience!

    There are a lot of tutorials online on how to make platform games, which is related to what you're doing. Look in this one for example, and do a Find in the page for "jump". You'll soon see how they read the keyboard, and then use that to make the character jump:

    Note that although the tutorial is for Flash Pro, it still applies to Animate.

    This question is impossible to meaningfully answer without seeing what game loop you've already implemented.
