I know how to lua, but I dont know how to corona

I’ve pretty much learned as much as you could with Lua code, I still have some to learn but that will come. My real problem is how to get started with corona, I went to the corona basics however it seams to be teaching me lua instead of how to display an image onto the screen. To start out I plan to make a game where you drag an orange ball into the orange area and you win, one level, no obstacles.

Where would be a good place to learn this?

Hi @mattfriemoth99,

Welcome to Corona! One guide you can start with is this one:

https://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/start/helloWorld/index.html

This will show you some basics about getting some text (a display object, similar to an image) on the screen, along with showing you how to detect a tap on the screen, add an image to the screen, make it use Corona’s physics engine, etc.

After you walk through this, please respond with any questions and I can guide you further on the next steps.

Take care,

Brent
