I use Second BASIC to now create games

[captainalexander]

Since I use Second BASIC from second dimension which that one is more program worthy I been having a lot of trouble getting the whole idea of coding in the BASIC coding language and I could get some help like tutorials to guides on how to make a game for the Sega Genesis as I would love to build a mighty platformer and release it soon once I have the BASICs done and mastered.

So where I can get the Guides/Help I'll need to program with ease with BASIC Coding programmning? I been playing around witht he XGM driver and print functions but never got into the other lines of coding yet.

I've answered this a dozen times for you lol Google BASIC programming tutorials and look at the example code that comes with SecondBASIC (or BEX), and ask specific questions.

For example: "how do I make a loop that only loops X amount of times?"

There's millions of BASIC tutorials out there for you to learn the fundamentals (your variable types, loops, etc). I doubt you're going to find someone to hold your hand while learning as it takes a lot of time, and a lot of effort. Ask specific questions on what you want to accomplish (and I don't mean "I want to make a sonic game"), but things like "how do I display a Sprite?" "How do I draw backgrounds", etc.

Good question!

For a Do...Loop:

   Do While x < 10
       Do While y < 5
           y++: Print y
       Loop
       x++
       Print “x: “; x
   Loop


This is just a basic example of nested loops. If you have any questions on it, feel free to ask!

The same can be done for While...Wend and For...Next looks, just with their own syntax.
