I’ve been putting this off for a while, so I’ve tried to tackle it recently to no avail. Can someone help me? I’m making the enemy follow the player, but its only facing one direction. Is there any way to make the sprite flip or something? Here’s the project in case anyone needs it.

The easiest way is probably to use this extension:

Then do something like this…

I tested it out and it seemed to work! Good luck!
