+Although it may seem that AGI is not an overly complex language, it does take a full understanding of its inner workings to be able to successfully create a full featured AGI game. Understanding how the main [[interpreter cycle]] works, as well as how the different resources are loaded and accessed is critical in being able to create workable AGI games.
