One thing that could help this tutorial out is a way to check if the player actually has the items necessary to fuse. Right now, the player could make a gunblade without possessing either item. Which isn't a problem if it is impossible to not have said items by the time the player finds the shop, but that scenario doesn't happen very often in games.

One way to do this is using conditional branches, which would look like:

Show

<> Message: Would you like to fuse two or more items?
<> Show Choices: Yes/No
: {Yes] Handler
<> Message: Let's see what you have.
<> Branch if Gun Possessed
<> Branch if Sword Possessed
<> Show Choices: GunBlade/Nevermind
: {GunBlade] Handler
<> Change Items: Sword 1 Remove
<> Change Items: Gun 1 Remove
<> Change Items: GunBlade 1 Add
<>
: {Nevermind] Handler
<> Message: Then get out!
<>
: End
: Else Handler
<> Message: Doesn't look like you can make anything.
<>
: End
: Else Handler
<> Message: Doesn't look like you can make anything.
<>
: End
: {No] Handler
<> Message: Then get out!
<>
: End
<>

Now, if you are able to fuse a lot of items in your game then this could get very messy, very quickly. But while there are cleaner ways to do this, this approach is very easy for a new game maker to use and isn't very likely to be messed up.

To be fair, on the forum description it does say "Need help with game making or game playing? Ask for it in here."

I highly doubt that, but thank you.
