Yep, that’s totally possible! You can do it using the story and mini menu extensions together. Here’s the simplest way to explain it to him:


:one: Story Choices

Use story.showPlayerChoices to show text options in your story. Then check what the player picked:

  • Shows a text menu for the story.
  • checkLastAnswer lets you run code depending on the choice.

:two: Mini Menu for Shop / Character Selection

Create a mini menu with sprites or names of characters:

  • selection is the string of the item picked.
  • selectedIndex is its position in the menu.
  • Inside the if blocks, you can deduct coins, unlock the character, or assign it as the player.

:three: How to combine

  1. Show story choices → handle the story result.
  2. Show mini menu → player selects or purchases a character.
  3. Assign the selected character to the player sprite and start the game.

:light_bulb: Tip: Keep track of unlocked characters with a variable or array. That way, players can only select characters they’ve bought.

What Are You Wanting to Make, I’m New as well, But I Might Have Ideas.

What I want to make is(Im actually making two games) An adventure game where I go through levels and earn coins to buy characters and earn Weapons through buying randomizing crates

I was also going to see if settings would work for it

cool! i wanna help too! don’t leave me out! probably never even knew i was a thing till now.

The theme will be a cave style,so if anybody is good at art you could do sprites(BTW I will put you in the game credits

Basically,it’s a game where you are a miner exploring a cave inhabited by monsters and a mysterious fungus mutated into monsters

What I want to do is create a Miner who is immune to fungus

By the way I don’t ever use arrays so If I need to use them I want to know how

I don’t want any of the avatars to be that big if anybody wants to make avatars

i cant code or anything like that but I can make sprites

you need to give me some sort of base point to go off of maybe a video game character though?

IDK How To Code, But I Can Have Ideas.

Maybe, Give Him Some Armor, Like How You have Armor in Minecraft

So what should the armor durability be

Maybe 250 and when you get hit you take 10 damage?

YEAH! That’s a Great Idea!

(Oops, I didn’t know there were The Unown in this Spelling Sans.)

why don’t you just make it 25 and take 1 every hit?

I just like big numbers,also I want it bigger than the health(Which will obviously be 100).
