I'm doing number of events. But I want to make the player to "Explore" more, for example, I want him to first be able to touch a lamp and active an event , and only after he did that, he can do something else by some order, while all happen in a small room. So how do I make an event to be only active after the player finished a different event?

Second question 
I did an event, when the player step on a tile a stranger is seen on the extreme side on the "players view map" and then he runs. And i made it with 3 tiles long (3 events) so no matter on which tile he steps he will always see the stranger on the most side tile. But after the player is able to move free, how do I cancel the 2 other event that the player didn't stepped on? (if he stepped on tile 1, tile events 2-3 will be gone, if he stepped on tile 2, tile events 1-3 will be gone, ect.)

Learn about using Event Pages, Switches and Variables. Try to look for Andar's tutorial

In case you miss it on his topic, this is the link to the official tutorials on the main website :

Try using your commands one by one until you familiarize yourself with what they can do.

Trying to create an event with a combination/lot of 'Switches', 'Variables', 'Conditional Branches', etc when you are just starting out will simply confuse you even further.

To add to what they said...make a small practice game while you work through these. Otherwise you will probably end up dong what I did and tossing out your first few days of work once you learn how to do things better.

I've thrown about 5 projects out the door... mostly because I bite off more then I could chew at the time. I have yet to finish a game yet. But gosh darn I will finish one one day!

Just keep at it :p

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
