You're the king! All hail the king :)

Man, this is a REAL tutorial your making! When I asked you about helping me understand I didn't expect all this. You're to kind, my good sir.
Can't wait for chapter 2. Chapter 1 is now read!
Horray!

Thanks man. I have to go back to work on Wed (been on vacation) so I will probably not be able to keep up this pace. However, I am shooting for a chapter a week which is doable.

Take care and happy coding/writing!

Hey there fast-working-man :)
Sweet! Now we got a Title screen and a game start menu.
Works great and as always...good writing on the tutorial-wiki :)

Soon it will be time for our little @ hero to join the scene. I can't wait :)
