Question

im a beginner, working on a 2D platformer and attempting to get my game background (png 240X160 )to repeat as the player move horizntaliy.

Im addig a video recording of me going over the elements of my learning project and showing the issue. let me know if anything pops up to you so i can get it fixed. appreciate the help everyone!

Perhaps your background image needs to be wider than the viewport size.

You mean to try and set my virw port size in the project settings according to my background image? Isnt really small? My background image is 240x160

I say try a background image with a width greater than the width of your viewport. Don’t change the viewport, change the image width and try.
