Tutorials

This is where you can download my tutorials, that help you with game making in Multimedia Fusion and The Games Factory. There are different types of tutorials, and if you would like to see me make a tutorial on something that you are having trouble with, just ask. Tutorials are for MMF, unless otherwise stated.

This is a game engine for a platformer of similar style to mario, that I worked on for quite a while. It has a lot of the stuff from the original mario, including stomping enemies' heads, coin boxes, moving platforms, sloping pipes, and ripped mario graphics.

RPG Character Creator
14th April 2004

This is an early tutorial of mine, that shows you how to make an RPG system where you can make your own character, out of body parts you can change. The parts you can change are the hair colour, the skin colour, the trousers, the top, and the shoes. It can save it, and it can then show you a small speech example, where your created character talks to you, depending on what it looks like.

Phizzy's Tutor Pack
30th April 2004

This is a TGF-compatible tutorial pack that I made when some people kept having trouble on the daily click. I decided to help them out by making this tutor pack. It contains tutorials on how to:
Make destructable terrain.
Make semitransparent object trails, or blurs.
Make keyboard and mouse-controlled menus.
Make a simple paint program.
Make a small top-down shooter, where enemies have to be hit more than once.
Make a custom platform engine.
Make a level editor and viewer for a platformer.

You will need the extensions in the second download to open this in TGF.

RPG Engine
27th May 2004

This is a tutorial which shows you how to make a complete RPG Engine. In it, there is:
Custom character creation, as in the above tutorial.
A custom naming system, where you control a cursor and select letters to make up your name.
A small part which shows speech, with multiple, customizable paragraphs.
A world map screen, where you can make your character walk around the world.
A Final Fantasy-style battle engine, where you fight monsters and defend yourself.
A levelling up system, where you gain experience from battles and exchange it for being trained.
A boss battle, where you kill your evil dictator.

Some of the stuff in this tutorial is very useful to know in TGF/MMF, so it could be a good idea to download.
Note: The TGF Version may be unstable on Windows XP computers

This tutorial shows a good way of making scrolling for a sidescroller/platformer.
This method makes the window scroll so that you are 1/4 way across the screen horizontally when you move, and move the window back to lock on to you when you aren't moving.
