Hello, I have always been daydreaming about making a game from scratch and this is my first try. Basically I wish to make something along the lines of Hotline Miami although I doubt it will be do-able with my lacking knowledge of programming. Therefore I have 3 questions.
I see there’s some tutorials lying around explaining the basics of Codea, but I haven’t found any tutorials to make a game from scratch. Does a tutorial like that even exist?
Is there any tile map editors that works with Codea? If so, which?
Is there tips and tricks in learning the language that you guys have successfully used?
My tip would be to keep it simple to start with. If you get stuck ask for help on the forum and make sure you posy your attempt at code with the question as this will help others to help you a lot more easily
You forgot to close your if statements. You had two if statements in the draw function, but never said “end” on either one to close the if statement. It was expecting an end.
