How to make pushable sprites using blocks?

Arcade Help

I’m completely stuck ;-;

I’m trying to figure out how to make my sprite “push” another sprite (such as a box or boulder) while walking into it.

Here’s an example of pushing a block with tilemaps:

I was having fun with this concept, so here is another much, much, much more complicated example that lets you push multiple blocks at a time:

Is there a way to make this for a top-down game without gravity and being able to push it left right up and down?

pushing more than one block at a time is only slightly more complicated. basically, you want to scan for pushable tiles in the direction the push is happening and see if the line of pushable tiles ends in an empty spot or not.

here is that same sample code updated so that you can push more than one block
