One more thing when you watch his videos copy down what he did in the edit screen in to smile basic that way you can play around with it so you can see how each thing works (I suggest looking at his smilebasic for beginners tutorials first)
Ok good luck oh Did you check out smilebasic source yet. And if you need help with anything not sprite or bg based I whould love to help(I'm trying to understand it myself right now once I understand it I will make a key with a program explaining every thing in the edit screen so that you can make your game I hope I can help more in the future)
and figure out what each command means then edit it to test what each thing does if a error shows up pay close attention to why anf how it happend.keep pushing the help button is also the key to figure out smilebasic.
realy!don't give up,but i suggest try doing somthing text based for now then once you get your barings go back to your original idea. start by understanding commands like data,dim, and stuff like that once you understand those key commands try working with spofs, bgofs,spanim,and bganim. first work on the loops for(end),while(wend),if(then),and repeat. start by looking at other peoples programs.
Good luck to you to(I knew nothing at all about coding when I first got smilebasic) if you need help with something and I understand it then I can help you.
Ok I'm working on that right now. Thanks for your ideas and I'm realy glad you enjoyed it.this is my first game and I'm going to be working on it for a while I will be making a story to it eventually. I will tell you when a new update is up thanks again hope to hear from you.
