Thank you for joining the FallenSword community! You are about to embark upon a grand adventure, so prepare yourself for battle. You will be questing for great rewards in exotic locations like the Burning Abyss, the Crystal Cavern, the Dreg Marshes, and the Elya Desert. You will meet fearsome creatures such as scorpions, ogres, vampires, goblins, snakes, and golems. You will be facing great elite fighters and champions around every turn. Kill the right creature, and you might find an item of inestimable value. Join a guild and work with your fellow players to achieve goals unreachable by yourself alone. Do all this, and in time you too will become a legendary warrior.
The FallenSword universe is massive, consisting of hundreds of distinct locations, each of which is filled with unique and frightening foes. You will be able to buy, loot, and trade thousands of items, but choose carefully: Your success in battle will be fully dependent upon your choices of equipment. You only have space for a few items, so fill them wisely. You will earn gold through killing creatures, attacking other players, and trading in the Auction House. Plus, you can earn and use FallenSword Points to enable you to upgrade your character beyond mortal limits.
Since you’ve gotten this far, you’re almost ready to go, but there’s one more thing you must do. Read the Newbie tutorial below to learn the basics of game play, and then get started!

What books should I read to learn php game programming?
Question by Catrina T: What books should I read to learn php game programming?
I have very little experience in programming and I want to make a turn-based, web browser, text-based, rpg game with php.
What books should I read?
One of the books I was thinking about buying was the beginner php book by Andy Harris. The only thing stopping me from buying it is I don’t know if I would have to buy another book on top of that or if I could just read php tutorials online and understand them after reading the book.
And also I’ve read the reviews on the php game programming book by Matt Rutledge and the reviewers said that it doesn’t teach much about programming games with php.

Answer by Andrew
Depends on your experiences, getting familiar with php and SQL for more general things would be the first step. Then if it where me I’d probably go into more general game programming theory, doing it online adds some special considerations, but the theory behind how the game behaves is the same no matter what language you are using.
You could also look around for some open source projects that are related, see how they did things. I believe there is a php remake of Legend of the Red Dragon floating around. (called “Legend of the Green Dragon”)

*Sylvia, a 30 something housewife says that online learning has allowed her to continue her education with minimal disruption to her home and family life. “It allows me to attend “class” which is usually I log on to during afternoon, when the house is extremely quiet and my son is still at school.”
On-line Technology
Regardless if you are still using dial-up, DSL/cable broadband—you can avail of this online instructional, studies and tutorials. This has replaced the learning-by-correspondence bygone days (whereas lessons were being mailed back and forth). It doesn’t matter anymore if you are a plain housewife, out of school youth or retired already. Everyone can benefit from this on-line learning experience.
Two Kinds of On-Line Learning
1)If you are after for some certification or degree. You do need to pay for it especially if you need to upgrade your skills or you are considering pursuing another career.
2) The “free” on-line courses with no strings attached what-so-ever. But…this one doesn’t give you any kind of certification at all. This is simply more on the tutorial aspect or just for the heck of it of learning something new.
On-line studies or courses are much more fun with the aid of multi-media incorporated to it. (video,audio,podcast) or even some fancy “flash” action scripts to make it more dynamic. Some free online courses would even offer some downloadable reading materials in the form of E-books, Word Docs and PDF (portable document format).
It even offers forums and chats. For those paid online courses it is a virtual classroom where you can participate in the video conferencing or web cast.
WHERE TO FIND, WHERE TO START
In order to utilize on line learning, you must have:
Computer with internet access Headphones, Microphone Printer Email Software Instant Messaging Software
You can use Yahoo, Dogpile and the almighty Google to search for free online courses. But you can get too many results that might overwhelm you. You might want to try an online learning portal like WORLD LECTURE HALL –http://web.austin.utexas.edu/wlh/ or you might want to try the following:
