## Creating Your First EGF Package
10+
11+
### 1. **Metadata Tab**
12+
Fill in your game's basic information:
13+
- **Title** (required): Name of your educational game
14+
- **Language** (required): Two-letter code (e.g., `en`, `fr`, `es`)
15+
- **Creator** (optional): Your name or organization
16+
- Other optional Dublin Core fields
17+
18+
### 2. **Manifest Tab**
19+
20+
#### Special Scenes (Required)
21+
Add exactly one of each:
22+
- **Game Title** - Opening screen
23+
- **Congratulations** - Success screen
24+
- **Game Over** - Failure screen
25+
- **Credits** - End credits
26+
27+
Click "Add Special Scene", select the type, provide an ID, and upload the XML file.
28+
29+
#### Content Scenes
30+
Add your educational content:
31+
- **Video Simple** - Tutorial videos (MP4, WebM)
32+
- **Audio Simple** - Audio lessons (MP3, WAV, OGG)
33+
- **MCQ Simple** - Multiple choice questions (XML)
34+
- **Hangman Simple** - Hangman-style word puzzles (XML)
35+
36+
#### Cover Image
37+
Optional but recommended, add the cover image of your game:
38+
- **Cover Image** - Package thumbnail (JPEG, PNG)
39+
40+
### 3. **Sequence Tab**
41+
Arrange your scenes in order by dragging and dropping. The creator enforces these rules:
42+
- Game Title must be **first**
43+
- Congratulations must be **third from last**
44+
- Game Over must be **second from last**
45+
- Credits must be **last**
46+
47+
### 4. **Settings Tab**
48+
Activate any settings you added:
49+
- Max Wrong Answers
50+
- Background Audio
51+
- Foreground Audio
52+
53+
### 5. **Export Tab**
54+
Click "Download EGF Package" to:
55+
1. Validate your package
56+
2. Generate the ZIP file
57+
3. Download to your computer
58+
59+
## File Structure
60+
61+
Your EGF package will contain:
62+
```
63+
your_game.egf
64+
├── mimetype
65+
├── META-INF/container.xml
66+
└── egf/
67+
├── egf.xml
68+
└── assets/
69+
└── [your uploaded files]
70+
```
71+
72+
## Tips
73+
74+
- **IDs must be unique** - Each manifest item needs a distinct identifier
75+
- **Use descriptive IDs** - e.g., `intro_video`, `question_01`, `game_title`
76+
- **Test as you go** - Click the Export tab frequently to check validation
77+
- **Save your XML files** - Keep copies of scene XML files for editing later
78+
79+
## Conformance
80+
81+
This creator produces **EGF 1.1 conforming packages** that comply with the official specification at [egf-format.org](https://www.egf-format.org/specifications/1.1/).
82+
83+
## Need Help?
84+
85+
Check the validation messages in the Export tab - they'll guide you if anything is missing or incorrect!
