Point and Click Puzzles. help.

Hello,

I am currently making a point-and-click horror game. Is there anything I can learn to do point-and-click puzzles? Online seems to be lacking in them, or I am not looking in the right locations. I found a few topics here in Point-and-Click Interaction or moving around but that’s mainly it.

I am making this discussion for myself as well as others who are looking for point-and-click puzzle tutorials. or links to them

or any other tutorials, forums, and classes for learning more about point-and-click.

I recently found this within the forums about point-and-click

Handling objects in a point-and-click system? - Pipeline & Plugins / Editor Scripting - Epic Developer Community Forums

Note that point-and-click is no different from any other method of interaction - by searching for something that specific, you might be narrowing the field too much. Set up a basic interaction system using an interface, see how it goes. It could be as simple as:

At least for now.

Ahh Okay, I completely understand. I never thought of it as that but now that you say that I could take something that is originally for something else and try to tweak it to fit a point-and-click system. (There are other parameters around this though lol) but I understand.
