This page is for “how to” guides which don’t fit in to the tutorial (and may be out of date).

Simple

Easy to implement using only the GUI.

• Time-limited puzzles
• Security code to unlock door
• Starting inventory

Basic

Be prepared to see code - but not write it. Most of these have blocks of code, but do not let that put you off; it is pretty easy to copy-and-paste a chunk of code straight into your game, then go back to the GUI view to look at it or change it.

• Character Creation
• Immobilise the player
• Use InvisiClues for Help
• Random responses
• Port and starboard

Advanced

For those happy to use code.

• A Hint System
• Turn-based events
• How to use functions
• Random default messages
