Final code for Player [ Step ]   Walk + Jump Animations

Todo [ 03/10/2020 ] for today is done

• Create new project in Game Maker 2
• Prepare default screen ( background, floor,  player )
• Add gravity
• Add code to get character moving, running, jumping

I figured it made sense to start clean and take my time to build each section properly and then add features after the fact.   i'll post my updates here going forward and leave comments to the comments page.
