Please rate this comment up if you would like to see further tutorials delve into more advanced concepts (just so I know if there is an interest).

This is one of the best StencylWorks tutorials I've seen so far, and it's interactive too :)

Please note: Do not move your player out of bounds. To keep this tutorial simple, I did not explain that coding. It will be covered in tutorial 5. Thank you for your patience :)

Tutorial 5 can be found here: http://www.kongregate.com/games/Abigayl/stencyl-tutorial-5-music-powerups-more (While it is best to do the tutorials in order, can skip there to see how to do it or take the shortcut of finding my "8 way" behavior on StencylForge with the edge detection already in place.)

I just completed the tutorial and I found it to be very helpful. Granted, I am a new StencyWorks user, so I do have a lot to learn, but I'm glad for the jump-start the guidance of this tutorial was able to provide as it provided a template from which I was able to gain a much better understanding of how the development environment works.

Glad it helped. It was designed with new programmers like yourself in mind ;).
