small reason: blogger.com is HORRIBLE at allowing me to post source code (without having to modify the html, which is just annoying). So am currently thinking of where would be most convient to continue the tutorial.
B I G R E A S O N
I STOPED to finish the game. While a little buggy, it can be checked out here

I have a few goofy bugs Im cleaning up but its done for the most part.
That will be what the tutorial is on. Yes I know my original idea was a fantasy based, but seeing so many of them I decided to take an alternate route. Plus this program encompasses all aspects of php programming which I feel is good to bite your teeth on.
Thank you for those that have emailed me requesting the source code. It is NOT available. Sorry. Many many hours have gone into this (over 35+ pages and 10,000 lines of code so its compact and effecient). This tutorial will show you how to build it. We all know it will spread once its downloaded, so I think its best if YOU write it, then spread it around. However, you'll find that when your done, you'll have quite a bit of pride in what you created and may not be so quick to share it either. So with that in mind -
FAQ for source code:
- I don't want to sell it!1 (due to piracy)
- If you just HAVE to have it, $249.002 - so it by some "mysterious" way it ends up all over the net, there is at least some compensation.
- If you have the "WTF!!" attitude see FAQ #1
ABOUT THE GAME
Ok, as mentioned, I did not want to make a fantasy since there were too many already, and it seemed the top PBBG's were mobster type or money type, So I came up with this:
Takes place in the future (post apocalyptic).
- Players move about scrounging for possible good items, from car and machinery parts, jewelry to rare clothing in good condition.
- Sell items to various stores in the area. If not satisfied with the offer, players can haggle. If the haggle fails, players are flaged at that store. More than 5 flags and player is banned (this is set by the webmaster).
- Players can train their stats for improvement with the money they get.
Bear in mind at the time of this witting there are a few bugs I'm squishing, wont take long.
(NOTE: this is not the final version, just for display purposes, so anyone can log on and explore it, but as you can see its very close)
1. Some exceptions
2. When I created this, I made an installer so it would be easy for me to test it on different servers. So those of you who want to get the source, it will come with the installer. There is a disclaimer you'll have to agree to as well. Also as I update the files, you'll get the updated ones as well.
