Make a game like Timberman with Swift 3

Learn to make 2D Games for Apple Devices by building a clone of the hit game Timberman with Swift.

Together we’ll build a complete game step by step using SpriteKit and Swift.

All you need is a Mac and Xcode which can be downloaded for free from the Mac App Store. I’ve provided everything else. Let’s get started!

Keeping the downloaded source code up to date with changes

1 - Choose a location on your Mac to keep the original source code. In this example we'll make a Source folder in your Documents folder.

mkdir ~/Documents/Source

2 - Clone the timberman-swift project from GitHub.

cd ~/Documents/Source && git clone https://github.com/spritekitbook/timberman-swift.git

3 - When you want to sync with the latest version on GitHub.

cd ~/Documents/Source/timberman-swift
git fetch origin
git reset —-hard origin/master
