Any tips? I just started this and have no idea what to do (I am not a programmer). I read the whole manual with my parent..Do you have to be a " Programmer" To be able to use this? Any tips will be greatly appreciated.
You don't just have to program you can also play games that others created by typing public keys. So scroll through this community and find some games, I guarantee, you will love this game!
To download a game, tap on Publish/Download Projects, then tap on Download (Receive) using Public Key. Enter any public key you've found. (Try [5VXN8AE] it's easily one of the best games available right now) Once you've downloaded a game, go back to the main menu and tap on Browse Projects. Open a folder by either double-tapping it, or selecting it and the tapping OK, then activate a program...
the same way. Generally a program downloads with its own folder, buy if it asks you where to download to, you usually want to choose [DEFAULT]. The Create Programs with SmikeBASIC button brings you to the computer where you can program games.
Tell your parents that yes it is a programming tool, but it is on the easier side so newbies to programming like you can start doing it yourself. You should give it a shot, I mean, wouldn't you want to make your own games? Programming is a wonderful & underappreciated art, but once you get into it you will understand.
