• Resolution Independence: This check box is only needed (and visible) when you are

developing for an Apple iDevice (iPad or iPhone). When you are developing for an iPad or

iPhone, you should always make sure you have this option checked. I’ll explain why, in more

detail, when we discuss graphics and images in another section.

• Description (Draft): This area is for your use only and does not affect or get used in the game.

You can use this area for notes to yourself, instructions for team members, or leave it empty. It’s

entirely up to you.

Note–Multiplayer: If you are a Pro-user, you will see an additional drop down menu

on this screen. With this menu, you can choose to set up your own multiplayer server if

you are planning on developing a multiplayer game.

All of these settings are specific to the project info tab. As you can see, there are several other

tabs listed at the top of this window, along with a few other buttons and icons (see Figure 2).

• Back/Forward Buttons: You can use these two buttons, just like you would in a browser, as

you move through the various windows and tabs of Gamesalad, to go back where you came

from, or move forward through your previous window path.

• Home: This button will return you to the home screen of whichever main tab you are currently

viewing.

• Scenes: This drop down menu is dynamically built. Once you have added one or more scenes

to your game, they will be displayed under this menu. Choosing a scene from this menu will take

you directly to that scenes stage.

• Tables: This drop down menu is also dynamically built. If you add tables to your project, they will

be listed here. Choose a table from the list to view and edit its contents.

• Preview: Once you have created a project, pressing the preview button will run the game in the

Gamesalad window, allowing you to play test the game within the GDK. Pressing the preview

button will take over the entire Gamesalad screen and hide all other information from view

during play testing.

• HTML5 Preview: Use this option to preview your game as an HTML5 project. You can preview

the game within the Gamesalad environment or within any browser you have installed on your

computer.

• Publish: Pressing this button will start the app publishing process and you will be directed away

from the Gamesalad Creator application to Gamesalad’s web-based publishing portal.

• Feedback and Help: Pressing either of these buttons will send you to specific help pages, for

further assistance, on the Gamesalad website.

• Project Info Tab: The project info tab acts as the “home-base” tab of Gamesalad. As you have

already seen, this screen is where you establish some initial settings of a project.

• Scenes Tab: In this screen, you will add (or delete) new scenes to a game, organize those

Chapter 2: The Scenes Tab and the Stage

In This Chapter You Will Learn:

• How to add and delete scenes in a game project

• How to organize scenes in a project

• What the stage is and how its used

• How to navigate the stage view

• How to establish some initial settings for a scene

Scenes are one of the base elements that all games are made from in Gamesalad. You will

spend this hour learning what a scene is, how and when to add scenes to a project, and how to

organize scenes. Once you have learned to add scenes to a project, you’ll take a look at the

stage view. The stage view is where you will build a scenes’ interactive elements and make your

game come to life! You’ll spend part of this hour learning to navigate the stage view and prepare

to add game elements in the next chapter.

The Scenes Tab

The scenes tab is used to create and organize the various scenes of a game. You can think of a

scene as an individual level in a game or any single screen of information (like a splash screen,

credits screen, etc.). Any time you want to create a new screen, you’ll likely do so by creating a

new scene in the scenes tab.

The scenes tab opens with one scene already created for you, the initial scene (see Figure 2.1).

You can add additional scenes to a project by pressing the Plus (+) button in the lower left

corner of the screen. As you add new scenes, they will be named and sequentially numbered,

starting with scene 1. To rename a scene, click its name and you will be presented with a

standard text box to edit. If you add too many scenes to your project, or just want to delete one

for any reason, first highlight the scene by clicking on it once. Then you can either press the

Delete key on your keyboard or press the Minus (-) button in the lower left corner of the screen

to delete the scene. If you accidently delete a scene, don’t worry. Gamesalad has a multi-step

undo so you can use the Edit » Undo menu option to bring scenes back from nowhere. If you

have multiple scenes to delete, you can hold down the Shift key, as a modifier, while you are

selecting scenes. This will allow you to select multiple scenes at the same time.
