Wink- Thank you for fixing the error about the stuff appearing but when the aliens respawn they don't shoot anymore. How would I go about making the score stay the same and getting harder to play? Also if it's not difficult how would I go about adding another row of different aliens? I designed 2 more but am not sure how to add them, I only want them when it gets a little harder or from the start but all aliens moving slower.

Any tips on what to do about that problem?

EDIT- All it seems to do is restart the game which is good but the score goes back to 0 as well. Also "GAME OVER" and such stay on the screen the whole time.

I am 18 years old.

No computer programming knowledge at all which is why I have trouble here.

I do "things" with my characters around my town and wanted them to have some sort of purpose.

I always wanted a video game character/whole game that I made myself, so I accidentally came across this program by searching for how to make a space invader style game (I assumed it would be easy, it is not)

I have (at least just the one level) a space invader style game as an app on facebook, I already have the aliens in my game "painted" onto my clothing so people will see it if they see me.

I mainly made the game so (like I said) my characters will have a purpose besides just putting art in public places.

That is all I was able to come up with, it just leaves the screen blank and the saucer keeps going. All this is confusing me. —@

I did but in the same layout that has all my aliens and stuff I have the "GAME OVER" text and such so I didn't know if that would effect it.

So the TL;DR is simply I just have to level go to layout 1 again and it acts as a new level of sorts?

Well I have it all set up <img src="http://i.imgur.com/UGHVM.png" border="0" /> I believe that is correct (not including the rest just using 1 for now to test) what do I do from here? After I beat the aliens it just goes to a screen where it is a blank layer.

EDIT- Well apparently that is too much stuff, it said that I have a limit of 100 events and like 4 layers or something. This is one of those times when it sucks to be part of the proletariat.

I assume it will make my game laggy or something or a larger file?

FredQ- Can I do that without making a bunch of layouts? Or was that just something you said would be easier?

sqiddster- Is the HUD layer my main layer or something? As well what do you mean by a backing?

How can I set my game so that I can add things like a screen saying "Level 2" and such without using too many layouts?

I know about global variables and all that but I need to know what I have to set to get everything in motion. In short just tell me how to set it so my game can progress 1 level and I can take it from there.

Please and thank you to all who respond.

I have the perfect reaction image for this situation. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/2MH9f.jpg" border="0" />

Thank you.

Here is the .capx

I can't figure out how to set it so the title screen shows up before "Layout 1" everytime I load the game on facebook or in the program Layout 1 runs first. If I select "Return to title?" after I beat all the aliens the title is there though.

PLEASE HELP QUICKLY THANK YOU!
