It sure would help if there could be a tutorial video on a project from start the finish. The current video skips a lot of steps. If there was an advanced project tutorial, I think it would be wonderbar.

    Not quite related to your question eboy but it gave me an idea, that we should have the ability to be able to play videos in a scene, so that any story based games and others (any really) can benefit.

    I also agree with eboy about more video tutorials. The tutorials are pretty lacking for GameSalad and although it is pretty easy to make something fast I feel I am still short on understanding a lot of things about GameSalad. It would be nice if there was a true video tutorial that does go from start to finish.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Hi gregr209,
    Besides video, is there something more that you would like in the how to's and documentation to be more helpful in learning GameSalad?

    I think just something that goes from a full start to finish. Something that pulls the how to's and the reference together to show all aspects of GameSalad. I just don't feel I have a full understanding of everything. That includes audio as well. I do realize that an overall comprehensive tutorial would be a bit much :-)

    The stuff Mr. T has done (his how to's) have been great. And I think we all appreciate them (I know I do!).

    There was a great video that someone had that was taken at a conference showing a labyrinth type game. That was a pretty cool video and showed how to quickly make a game. Maybe something like that with more detail.

    Holy crude Mr. T that was awesome!!!!! Hey you should do a GameSalad podcast that talks about various GameSalad things and making games etc...maybe interview some of the creators of games that are active in this forum (like they interviewed the creator of Z is for Zombie in the blog), and talk about your experience in creating and selling an iPhone app. I know I would be interested in listening to such a show! Plus you could give tips and trick highlights as well. You have a good voice for a podcast.

    Anyway...just and idea :-) and as always thanks for being so HELPFUL on this forum!!!

    Nice tutorials tshirtbooth. My only complaint is that the audio is in only one channel.
  • gregr209gregr209 Member Posts: 441
    AWESOME! The stuff you are doing in the last tutorial is exactly the detail we need :-) I had NO clue about the layers stuff. Never crossed my mind. Love the tips as well.

    Okay...don't stop...keep going :-) Who said you could go to bed yet? :-)

    Thanks again and seriously think about that podcast idea!

    The last video was awesome. I learn a lot from it. Especially about the visible attribute! That will save me some cycles :-)

    Wow this is great tshirtbooth I'm learning a lot here.

    1) Could you make a video on how to create a health bar?
    2) How to make your actor collect items and add to a score?
    3) How to create game checkpoints?
    4) How to create a scrolling background?

    Keep em coming!
