Since my wall-o’-text documentation for ALPACA is probably not the friendliest introduction to the engine, I figured I would do a quick tutorial series showing how you can make a simple one-puzzle game using the engine. I’ll try to incorporate as many of ALPACA’s features as I can while still keeping things easy and accessible.
We’ll base this game around that adventure game puzzle you may remember as “basically every adventure game puzzle ever” – finding a key and using it to open a door.
