How do I get started?
Even if you are familiar with Scratch programming, Stencyl will still prove to be a little bit of a challenge (in a good way). I highly suggest you try to complete the first crash course (and possibly the second) to learn about this powerful tool. Otherwise, you should look at Stencyl Help in order to get started.
Crash Course #1 This short, hands-on tutorial will walk you through the steps needed to create a simple platformer using premade content, so that you can become familiar with the main parts of Stencyl's interface. Crash Course #2 The first Crash Course helped you learn the basics, and this follow-up lesson will give you a quick intro to Stencyl's Design Mode (the block builder) and show you how to build a simple game.
The game you’ll build will be a simplified version of the classic game Space Invaders, where the player controls a spaceship and shoots enemies that are floating at the top of the screen.
