~ about bitsy ~
hi! bitsy is a little editor for little games or worlds.
the goal is to make it easy to make games where you
can walk around and talk to people and be somewhere.
you can draw things in the ~ paint ~ panel, then place
them in your world in the ~ map ~ panel. you can write
dialog for your characters (aka sprites) too.
some words:
* map - the game world
* avatar - the player's character
* tile - a piece of the scenery
* sprite - other characters or things
to try your game, switch the map to play mode:
* walk around with the arrow keys
* talk to sprites by walking up to them
use "share game" to download the game as an html file.
you can email the file to a friend, or host it online!
if you want to talk about bitsy, report a bug, or share
a game you made, i'm on twitter @adamledoux
special thanks to:
* mary-margaret
* seattle game meetup peeps

Note: your browser doesn't support
direct downloads, so sharing requires
some extra steps:
- press share
- a new tab will open
- save that tab
- name it "mygame.html"
Your game is a web page you can share!
