# Documentation

This is the central repository for tutorials and instructions on FullScreenShenanigans projects.
These are all TypeScript projects tailored to or built on the GameStartr game engine.

**GameStartr** is a TypeScript game engine used as a base for creating sprite-based 2D games, particularly retro remakes such as FullScreenPokemon.
It uses about two dozen other FullScreenShenanigans projects as modules.


## Getting Started

First follow the [Development](https://github.com/FullScreenShenanigans/Documentation/blob/master/Development.md) section to learn how to get the projects and run them locally.
Then read [Getting Started#Tutorials](https://github.com/FullScreenShenanigans/Documentation/blob/master/Getting%20Started.md#tutorials).


## History

The FullScreenMario project started October 21st, 2012 and had a beta release in October 2013.
[FullScreenMario.com](http://www.fullscreenmario.com) received approximately 2.68 million unique visitors within a month, after which Nintendo shut the site down with a DMCA complaint (no action was taken against the authors, GitHub, or other hosting websites).

The FullScreenPokemon project started in October of 2014 during the refactor after an April Fools Day joke release that year.
