How to make a side scrollers game?
Author
Recently I want to make a side scrollers game like the old game Super Mario !
But i donot have any experience about this .
So , can somebody post some web links here about this type game ?
There's a complete tutorial on how to make a side-scroller at:

There may be more in the GDNet articles section, or at GPWiki.org, take a look over there.
Good Luck.

Tile Studio is excellent.
Mappy is also very popular (but not as polished).
I also recommend Tonypa's excellent tutorial on tile based games, here:
http://www.tonypa.pri.ee/tbw/
He uses Flash for language though, but the code is really easy to understand (if you're a novice programmer) and can easily be translated to C/C++ code. It's a very good read for understanding the "mechanics" behind a tile based game.
