i found out about Stencyl when one of my friends told me that i should go to Geek Squad Summer Accadamy in the summer of 2012. well, i went there mainly because i was already into making games at that time, and i was told by my friend that they teach you how to make games there, so i went. well i had a blast there, then it was time to make games... they introduced me to Stencyl there. i fell in love with Stencyls simplicity but power (the other program i had used was really hard but didnt really do what i had wanted) and i downloaded it and loved it! thankyou Stencyl!
