I registered Coldstone and should get the CD in a few weeks, but the tutorial would be really helpful right now... Is there any place I could download it?

There's an 80+ page tutorial called "Coldstone User Manual.pdf" in the Docs folder, if you download the demo.

Actually, that's a manual. It describes the various functions of Coldstone, but does not go into detail concerning how the functions need to be put together to create a game. What I'm looking for is the 30 page tutorial on creating your own game from scratch, or at least a list of the minimum things required to get a game up and running.

Blah, right, I see what you're saying... sorry, I'm sick today, and my brain is working slowly.

I'm currently designing a few walkthrough tutorials on making games with coldstone in adobe pagemaker.

YOUR BASES ARE MINE !!

When the CD version comes out, I believe there is a larger tutorial on it.

Yes..bring on the tutorial!

Bear with me, I'm only
an English major.

I was pretty sure it would be on the CD, but as the CD won't even ship for a few weeks, no one will be getting the tutorial for a while.

In the readme it says: "The game tutorial has not been included in this package to reduce the download size of this version of Coldstone."

Since that's the case, I was hoping there would be a separate download for it someplace while we were waiting for the CD. Please?

Yes, please, It would be very nice to be able to get the hang of the game before the cd arrives.

If you want to tutorial, sign the tutorial petition. I really love the idea of Coldstone, and think the idea has HUGE potential. Please sign the tutorial petition, if they see there is enough demand for it, maybe they will release it. There shouldn't be any harm, since the demo isn't fully featured...
