[From the subject of playing the game to the subject of creating it!]
It is overwhelming on your own. However, if you follow the lecture step by step, you will find yourself becoming a Creator. We have produced a baseline lecture on content creation using LuaScript and an introduction to the MSW platform that will expand globally in English . This time, we will provide an opportunity for existing MapleStory game players to create a 2D platformer game using MapleStory’s unique resources.
You can feel proud when you see your game being released on the MSW platform and many people playing it. In addition, you can earn revenue by registering paid items and tickets.
[Takeaways]
[Target audience]
Section 1: What is the MSW platform?
An introduction to the MapleStory Worlds platform and a walkthrough to the MSW Maker Client.
Section 2: Basic concepts and LuaScript
Few main concepts of the Maker; entity, component, property, model, service, and logic. Also, you'll learn how to script using Lua.
Section 3: Understanding Network in MSW
All about Network. Explanation of property synchronization and function control, deciding whether your function will run in the server or the client.
Section 4: Create your own game: “My Adventure”
Making your own 2D platformer game with coin collectibles, portals, monsters, etc.
Section 5: Publish and Monetize
Steps to publish and monetize your game by adding items.
Q. Can I follow along even if I have no development experience?
It is possible, but you may need to study separately for parts that you don't understand through lectures alone! If you don't give up, you will get results!
Q. If I take this course, will I be able to develop the skills to develop games freely?
If you are fully familiar with the "My Adventure" game that you will develop in the lecture practice part, you will have no trouble creating your own content. However, you may feel that the decoration mode is much easier than using the scripting language.
Q. Where can I ask for help if it's too difficult?
You can contact us through the MapleStory World official website forum, the MapleStory World official Discord, or by email to the instructor.
