Zen X-Fi 2 Game Maker-no coding required!

Hi, hope i put this in the right sub-forum.
I am working on a lua editor in visual basic.
This is aimed at people who are struggling on coding in LUA, and everything can be done with buttons and textboxes. There is a helpfile included which covers the program, and how to put the apps on your device.

And, experienced programmers can edit the code in this editor as well.

Here it is so far:

A game maker is alot harder then it sounds, there is many possible combinations of logic statements, art and different styles of games.

yes, well i can do the basics...

What exactly is it supposed to do?

Well, Its for beginners, download it or look at the screenshot for more info.

I don't really see the use of it. I mean all it does is to auto-write the code it seems, it doesn't really simplify the coding much I'd say, you still need to know exactly what to do and when and where to do it, then again I can already program so that might be why it feels weird. Don't think I'll use it, but it'll be interesting to see if it enables some new developers to create apps.

It says the setup is missing required files.

Why dont you just give us the exe? It would be alot eaiser then installing ( go to your project folder --> bin -- > (debug or release) )
