For all beginner DarkBASIC Professional programmers, Mike S is back with the second and final part of his series of tutorials covering developing a complete 2D side scrolling game with tile map system. This is a monster sized tutorial! The download runs to over 10MB, but it's worth it for all the media, example code and EXEs you get. Building on what you learnt last issue you now get to make media for your game, add in scrolling backgrounds and even a hero. The zip file contains the DBPro source code, media, EXE and tutorial in Microsoft Word format.
