Creating your own modes

Our step-by-step tutorial walks you through creating your own game modes. We just include this page on creating your own modes so you don't read the list of built-in modes and think that's all MPF can do. :)

Also if you haven't read the overview of how modes work in MPF, do that now. We documented the general approach to design a game in the Game Design section.
