The Wiki is not at a point yet where we feel it can be compiled into an offline version. However, we do have a page export extension installed that you can use to export pages for now.

This article serves as a high-level overview of the core concepts used in ENIGMA to make games.

Basic
	Actions	A unique drag and drop solution to creating games.
	Events	Fundamental to how your game's logic is processed. They are triggered periodically or when certain conditions have been met.
	Functions	Similar to actions but are a more traditional programming concept and require that you write code.
	Variables	Store information and data such as how many lives or health a player has.
	Constants	Variables that do not change, such as the mathematical constant Pi.
	Resources	Primary means of organizing your game's content.
	Debugging	Find out why a game is crashing or not performing as expected.
	Redistributing	Share your games with other people and create a published version.
Advanced
	Input	Allows the player to interact with the game using various devices.
	Movement	Motion and interactivity are essential to making a game feel active.
	Collision Detection	A natural consequence of moving objects is that we need to detect when they collide with each other.
	Physics	Some games require more than simple collision detection and need objects to behave as they do in the real world.
	Audio	Sound effects and background music help to immerse the player in the game.
	Multiplayer	Connecting players together in the same game can often add replay value and create interesting dynamics.
	Drawing Things	One of the most essential parts of any game is drawing things on the screen.
	Particle Effects	Special effects that make the graphics look more realistic and like objects have physical qualities.
	3D Graphics	Can be used for special effects and to add extra depth to your game.
