Adventure Project - Intro

    So, I've been working with MMF2 for all of 2-3 weeks now, and so far, I've gotten farther with it than GameMaker or any other kit I've tried to use so far, and though I am not perfect at anything I try to make yet (There's a disturbing amount of broken items in my sandbox file I use for testing) I'm gonna try making a project with it.

It won't be very big, but it'll hopefully be the first thing I finish and don't pathetically abandon like every other remotely ambitious project I attempt. (See: Every story I've ever written, every comic I've ever drawn, every RP I've ever GMed, every level in LBP I've ever made, and every Minecraft project I've ever started)

    But, I can try, and I'm gonna try something simple but hopefully playable and even more hopefully enjoyable. It'll be a Zelda-style adventure game where you control a fox and find items that do things. Just basic cause-and-effect used in a large environment that will hopefully give me experience with working with variables and arrays.

    Arrays especially, at least with the inventory... I think. Bare with me, I still suck at this, but basically, you'll have an inventory, an ability to save (This is high on my priority list) and somewhere in the future, 1 or 2 minigames for your inventory that work Professor Layton style where you find items in the world and use them to build things. Okay, so maybe this is a bit too ambitions, but these are the kinds of games I want to make, the kind with a lot of collecting and puzzle solving like Zelda.

    I originally wanted to make this update with some sprites to show for it, but all my sprites that I intend to use right now are either really crappy or were taken from other games as placeholders. I don't even know if I'm gonna finish this project, let alone manage to have it function properly (Again referencing my sandbox file of broken toys) so I didn't want to put the time into well-crafted sprites yet.

    So why bother announcing it at all? Well, because... I'd like some advice. If anyone is experienced with MMF2 and has any ideas or tutorial links for making inventories or using arrays at all, that would be great. Most of the tutorials I've found are for arcade-like games and the like, and that's far from what I want to do.

Also, I wanted to just throw this up in some places as a solid testament to my plans so they don't sink through the cracks again. I figure if one or two people are interested in this, it'll be good motivation.
