Lessons for Part 2

In Part two of the Starting tutorial we’ll step back and plan out the kind of tutorial game we want to make. This is a more ‘theoretical’ part where we won’t do any hands-on programming.

1. Introduction & Overview (you are here)

2. Where do I begin

3. On planning a game

4. Planning to use some useful Contribs

In the process we’ll go through the common questions of “where to start” and “what to think about” when creating a multiplayer online text game.
