I downloaded the trial of AGK2 and opened it. Now what? I have a nice screen with no prompts or anything.
Is there a manual somewhere that I am supposed to be following to get stated?
I have the DVD for Dark Basic from a few years ago but I never did much with that one. Is this supposed to be easier to learn?
I am lost. I do have the new Game Guru program though to replace my First Person Shooter game that I had.

agk2 is mainly for programmig 2d games.

A good place to start is to open one of the example projects included with AppGameKit, then press run to see it working, then start trying to edit it to make it do something different.

Try the thread below for the book Hands on AppGameKit, the first 8 chapters can be downloaded for free and there is now also a section for the debugger

Think this will give you a good start if you work with it.

Thanks. I am into Game Guru right now but later on I will probably be going into programming.
Thanks again.
