Under rating threshold (show) Fantastic game so far! Small typo in Section 4/10 of "Logic Operators AND" ... "Let's do some practice. Look at the statement, and determine if it's value by typing true or false." I think you want to get rid of that "if"

Under rating threshold (show) Please make the game auto-save or at least have an auto-save function that you can turn on and off! I had to restart my computer and forgot that you had to save. Now I don't have access to Logic Land and have to code all of those levels all over but I somehow kept all the levels I cleared in the Elite zone but not my money and my level. So now I have to do a lot of fighting to get to level 100 again :( It's an amazing game and I have learned a lot so thanks for that :) But an auto-save function would be really cool!

Developer response from GregoryCarlson

that's weird. This game should autosave every time you complete a level or beat an enemy. I'll look into it.

Is this real? You went through the trouble of taking a screen shot so I'll go through the trouble of checking

Under rating threshold (show) Really, really liking this: finally learning how to program, probably 20 years too late, but still: thanks! Quick question if anyone can help: do the parentheses used matter? Do conditional statements have to use the {}? Does trace have to use () or can you swap them in and out as you want? Even if it is bad practice?

+ - !

(0)

Developer response from GregoryCarlson

thanks! To answer your question, yes, you must use the appropriate brackets. If you use the brackets I demonstrate, it will not create unnecessary bugs

Under rating threshold (show) I love you for this. I'd love to see it finished in the near future. I was actually getting ready to learn this stuff and then this game popped up. Teach me...teach me EVERYTHING! 5/5

I would if I knew everything. I'll just pretend that I do. How does that sound? Don't tell anyone though.....

Under rating threshold (show) Just wanting to know, will this game itself be updated to go to more lands and go through more trials with the character we have made now or will that be a new game entirely?

Developer response from GregoryCarlson

new lessons = confirmed. new arenas = confirmed. new features= likely. new graphics = likely. new game entirely = not sure

Under rating threshold (show) a fanTASTic game. I personally am very familiar with java and python, but never have used flash surprisingly. I would love to see this made with higher level graphics, to attract more non-coders and to force them to take it seriously. And if I could help with said art in any way that would make my life (and im not bad with graphical art either so seriously if i could be of any use message me).

I'm online! Create a private var named userInput, of type number, and set it equal to 50. Don't forget the semciolon! private var varName:Number = value;

Under rating threshold (show) You could make an option to skip battle animations. After seeing them once they become a bit boring. Especially if someone wants to farm some battles to get more money/exp (not that I had to). Great game btw. Hope you keep working on it.

Under rating threshold (show) you should attempt to make an answer checker that allows for more leniency. in certain parts of the game you could make it not care whether the player uses ++, +=1, or = variable + 1.

Under rating threshold (show) This is easily going on my top 10 favorite games. I want to be a programmer when I get older and this really gave me a taste of what I'll be doing. I might just make a game if you release version two *hint hint*

Under rating threshold (show) As a programmer, one update that I would make is not to teach new programmers to rely on default values. Variables should always be explicitly initialized to provide clarity for future maintainers.

Under rating threshold (show) @overweightcow The trick for the elite quiz part 8 is that he wants the display to be in the correct order. What your code displays is "3Lives: ". You have to reverse the addition so that the display will properly show, "Lives: 3". Hope that helps.

Under rating threshold (show) After finishing the game I want to thank you for the afford of creating this great game/tutorial and I hope there will be an update soon. Its a great serious game even so you should work on the graphics ^^. There are so many free graphic packs out there, you should find some nice things you can add.

Under rating threshold (show) The graphic should be fixed so the game look more professional. But the idea is awesome. And i love that you learn I think that you accidentally put an extra quote mark: Part 5/9 Concatenation 4 private var stringFour:String = stringOne + " " + stringTwo "; Should it really be a quote mark on the end? + stringTwo "; should it not be: + stringTwo;
