For Beginners. Started by raidzero August 03, AM. So for the past few weeks, maybe month.. I've been learning C and working on a text based game. The game I hope to create would be somewhat similar to the Zelda series on Gameboy or Earthbound, which are great games.

And so, I have a couple of questions: Could I use the code from my text based game? What programs or tools will I need? Are there any tutorials you would recommend? Got any tips or pointers? I see there is a XNA workshop on this forum. Is it too late to follow along or just not quite for beginners? That's all the question I can think of now.
