Welcome to TDC! Make sure you have a look at the articles and downloads sections especially. The projects section shows what we're all up to and you can start your own stuff too. Also check out the latest klikcast episode, it shows the entries in a competition we just had.

If you ever need any help with your games or anything, we're just a post away!

Hey! Welcome to TDC! This is about the best Community for Clickteam software there is! (In my opinion )

My advice to getting started is to check out this download here.
http://create-games.com/download.asp?id=7614

It has a whole bunch of nice tutorials made by Clickers using MultiMedia Fusion or The Games Factory. It might help you out a bit!

Again, welcome to TDC!

thats alot to look at! would it be worth it to get multimedia fusion 2? im debating on buying it or not. i watched the klikcast thing and it was cool, i liked the random song in the middle! is there any good step by step tutorials on how to use it? i learn better that way.

i have mmf2 dev and i'd say you're better off with construct.
it's free and is evolving rather quickly.

If you have the money, go for it. There are a (very) few of us (myself included) who prefer TGF1's interface, but MMF2 is more powerful and stable. I'll be getting MMF2 when I can afford it. I don't have any links on me at the moment for beginner tutorials... You can download the MMF2 demo and check the choco-break tutorial if you'd like.

yeah im messing with the MMF2 demo right now, and i think it feels alot better. the choco-break tutorial was good but it really didnt go into much, and ive already seen alot nicer stuff on this website already. what is construct?

Welcome to TDC,

Construct is a freeware rival to clickteam products. I haven't tested it, but I have MMF2 and I can say it's pretty powerful and easy to manage

Construct is a bit of a hotbed of argument around here. It was apparently started by a beta tester who broke contract with Clickteam...

I don't know the whole story, and it's a bit touchy. Stick with MMF2.

I'd totally send everybody (who wanted it) a copy of MMF2 if it were legal.

But I SO agree. Get MMF2

http://scirra.com/

and yeah the construct subject is kinda touchy, but for gods sake please stop using the argument "scirra are a bunch of criminals".
Not only nobody gives a flying fuck about whether the original creator broke a stupid nda or not, nobody ever proved that and ashley/tigerworks already denied the story several times.

So,

Construct is free, has hardware acceleration, embedded physics engine, and is updated at a quick rate. However construct still isn't very stable.

On the other hand, MMF2 is stable, has a huge community supporting it, has several extensions and you can do java apps with it (still doesn't support every extension but well it's a start). However it's not free, still doesn't have proper hardware acceleration, and is updated really, really slowly.
