Hello,
I'm new here. I'm new to the whole gamedev scene actually. I decided to make my account after following some tutorials and learning some very basic top-down shooter stuff and GML on youtube.
I don't know how many of you have played Cibele, Hacknet, Uplink, Emily is Away, etc, but I want to do a very simple version of one of those kinds of games. Basically just a faux computer desktop that the player can interact with to read emails and narrative content.
Is there anything specifically I should know before I attempt this? How would you go about starting something like this?
I think that, ideally, the player sprite would move from one room to a room that represented the computer monitor (the player sprite/movement controls would change here), but I have no clue where to begin.
Again, I am very new to this so the simplest solutions/lowest depth would be the best.
Thank you,
HedinnWeis
