Sidescroller?

I need some help.
So i want to make a side-scrolling RPG game, but the thing is, I can't figure out how to make a side scrolling game. Can anyone help me? Thnx.

Also, I have a different idea where I could use one backdrop/sprite with the whole world in it, and just have Scratch Cat super small and have the game zoom in on him. Thnx again!

Sidescroller?

There are aple tutorials and wikis explaining it. i doubt i could do any better explaining everything.

I'd stick to just the first method described here vvv for now.

Sidescroller?

The simplest method for scrolling:
Create a variable called “scrollx”. Create multiple sprites for your level, and in each sprite, add a forever loop with code to make the sprite go to a certain position relative to the scrollx variable forever as long as the script is running. Then add a script that somehow changes the scrollx variable instead of changing the x position of the player.

For putting all the “level” costumes in one sprite:
Create the level sprite and all the costumes. Make a scrollx variable. Create a number of clones equal to the number of costumes, and have each clone set to a different costume. Use clone_id techniques to set all the clones to different positions relative to the variable. Then add a script that somehow changes the scrollx variable instead of changing the x position of the player.
