I'm working on one right now. :D
I've done it until Chapter 3, so you can check the stuff here:

(Temporary link until Juju fix his RAM issue :P)

Any comments? (Not about web designing since I suck at it :P)

Nice. Are you planning to put a copy in the articles section? It might be a good idea in case your host goes down eventually, plus it would be directly on Omni. :) http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=articles;cat=11

Hmm, I have only checked as far as chapter one so far, but nice o.o
EDIT: Hmm, I think you could mention why not updating after everything you draw is a good thing (like it lets you draw everything first and makes graphics faster). Otherwise, I lost the game.

EDIT2: And also, I like the coloring, it helps separate different ideas nicely :) (It isn't just a block of text)

Yes.

That's that chapter I'm planning to write. :3

Aww, none of the complicated things like storing to multiple variables or using lowercase instead of primes? :P Nice job, you are explaining it quite well so far o.o

Hence, the chapter named "BASIC math and variables" :P

Complicated stuff comes later. ;D

and I thought the temp memory stuff was kinda scary to users. :D
Now for loops and conditonals... :D

EDIT: Haven't uploaded yet but I fixed some thing. I mentioned that the Grammer does not follow the order of operations.

Yeah, that stuff is going to be really scary x.x You might want to include using ! before a Repeat and While as a way to negate and stuff. Also, the way Grammer parses conditions is that it executes all the way to a newline token, so if you use : to separate lines and math in a condition, it will work out. For example:

Code: [Select]
Repeat 3*A:+7:*3:-37
<<stuff>>
End
That line parses to:
(((3*A)+7)*3)-37)

Ah. That's nice to know. :D
Also, I'm including ! part before any If/Then and loops.
