How do you make one?

[clutch4life]

I want to make my own game if I knew how to make one. Does anyone know how?

[Nick88k]

I know how to make a text base game like http://clik.to/fantasy2k4


or if you want to be good like me i can teach you how to make a game like Mogul does, its very simple!

[Anemic_Royaltea]

yeah, lets have a tutorial...

[Griswel]

Yeah, like how many dice do I use, and how do I type the die rolls into the computer (and keep players from cheating!)?

I'm bumping this up because I am interested in hearing a response.

Some direction on where exactly to start would help us help you. Do you guys want basic "how to program" tutorials, or something more specific?

I got started writing up a tutorial yesterday. I think I can finish a good part of it tonight and tomorrow (I'm off work tomorrow). So basically, stay tuned.

Wow, construction work AND typing code. Seems an odd mix.:D

[ohms_law]

heh... well, the construction deals with installing a wireless internet and cell phone system, so it's not like I've changed career fields or anything.
:D

[lilbman07]

is it almost done

[metsguy234]

is it?

[ohms_law]

Almost. Sorry guys, I've been extremely busy. Hopefully, I can finish some of it up tomorrow or the day after.
