Alright, I'll try to make this quick but still interesting.
I used to be a die-hard FNaF fan (but even more to TRTF and FNaTL) so I wanted to make my own game based on these two games, the thing was that I had ZERO experience on this magical world so the first thing I did was to use Scratch, but I didn't do that much as I didn't get used to it (and the fact I don't like it) so I had to look up WHAT PROGRAM WAS USED FOR FNAF (Actually I was just looking up tutorials) and then realized that it was Clickteam Fusion 2.5. This was how I knew about the program and my 9 year old mind COULDN'T WAIT TO USE IT AND MAKE MY DREAM GAME! The problem was that since Fusion 2.5 is paid software so I had to use the Free Edition and you guys know how awful is that one version with its lame limitations so I was disappointed, but I didn't want to let my project die so I had to do something a bit shady: Use a pirated version. Besides of how I made a terrible platformer game before it and how awful the FNaF fan game was (and its sequels) I started to be more interested on platformers for being more fun to make than FNaF games (like come on I have a game of those that IS finished but I am still waiting for some voicelines since January) so during that time Squary was born, mostly as a test game.
Oh yeah, since late 2022 I became a proud LEGITIMATE Fusion 2.5 user thanks to my saving (kudos to my father too as he put a bit of his money and bought me the software) aaannd... I am still lame

but still learning.
I mean I still do what made me interested on Clickteam, but like a Mario'd esque game seems fun (also I made a 2D Crash clone but meh who cares)
That's it, what do you think of this or how did YOU got into Clickteam products?

What how i got into the Clickteam products?
Well, it's a long story (so I'm going to do it with Google Translate, so sorry if something doesn't make sense {gosh, I think I really have to start learning to speak English}).
Well, I entered the wonderful world of Click thanks to FNAF, so let's get to that first.
In 2016 (a very good year for me, where I was 7 years old) I discovered Five Night's at Freddys for the first time. In my school's computer class I saw that everyone was crowding around a single computer (the truth is that in that class we never did anything

) and it was because there was a game installed there called Five Night's at Freddys 2.
Well, the thing is, we played the game and we loved it. My friend Pablo asked "How would they have installed it?" and with that question was how he totally started in the world of video game piracy, and I learned from him, but I'm moving away from the topic.
Well, that's how I discovered FNAF, later, thanks to my friend Pablo I managed to download it for free but the truth is that I never became a big fan of the game.
Now comes when I join the scottgames community, and then in the click community.
During the 2020 pandemic, I discovered a YouTube channel in Spanish called Jota and in one of its videos it told the complete story of FNAF (not the story of the game, the story of how the game was made), I was interested so I clicked on it. So that's where I first heard of Scott Cawthon (although I'm sure I'd heard of him before but oh well). Then I discovered the games that he had made before FNAF and in the same video the video said that he used an engine called Clickteam Fusion. So several times I wanted to start using it, I downloaded the free edition many times but I never decided to actually develop games. Which was bad, because time is running out. I'm 15 now, in a few years I'm going to be an adult, and if I wanted to I'd already be developing video games since I was eleven

.
since I saw that video I also followed the Scottgames community very closely, watching all the posts on reddit, but I never decided to enter either.
A few months ago I decided to come in with a theory that was actually quite unbelievable to me, but at that moment I was very excited about the theory I had developed.
After doing a lot of research on Scottgames I discovered an old post from 2006 called "What happened to Weird Colony?", that was the first time I saw The Daily Click website, I was very excited to see it because I thought maybe Someone from that post would still have the game, so I was very disappointed when I saw the date.
Then I decided to start making games like my idol, Scott Cawthon, and I made Flan Atrapa Bolas, and doing a lot of research about Scott I realized that he had published his games on a site on the same site as the post, and well I published my game there.

At that time I didn't really know how the forums worked so I did things like necroposting, posting stupid things, etc., forgive me for that.

Well, that's the story of how I joined the Click Community! I hope you liked it
