04.00 THE BASIC GAME TEMPLATE

This section of the forum is the official ‘starting point’ for our adventures in game development. As a prerequisite, I’ve asked that everyone successfully make their way through the Ladder series so that we’re all starting on the same foot. This is a very important series; perhaps the most important that will ever be on this forum. Think about it – as of this moment, you don’t need to know a single thing about game development whatsoever. It’s just like the first day of class, and we’re about to open our textbooks…whatever happens from this moment forward is completely under your control. This forum promises great things, and demands great things as well. Only with true enthusiasm, effort and determination will either of us amount to anything in this endeavor, so I’m taking this opportunity, much like a gatekeeper at the gates of some mysterious land, to welcome you and wish you well on your journey. You are two clicks away from starting the Hands-On Interactive Game Development Tutorial.
