I’m having trouble with getting started on coding a game, I have no idea what I’m doing. Tried following a basic guide for ChoiceScript, however, something always seems to be different and it leaves me incredibly confused. If anyone could help me figure everything out, that would be great!

CoG’s very own introduction page is where I got started, right here.

You can all so use VsCode or Notepad plus plus do yours is a very good choice. @Jonathan_Bagelman
