You need to put everything into separate procedures, ie the game is in a procedure, instructions are in a procedure, settings are in a procedure, etc. You then need to create some way of allowing the user to call those procedures, weather by text or buttons.

I understand connecting that part, but its the part of connecting what procedure to what procedure that confuses me. I might start out with text first, and then convert everything to GUI

RE:Main menu

okay so have it set up so if "ESC" key is pressed, "brings up the menu" // lets you change things in this menu. when your done, you go back to the game... Heres a VERY basic idea.

code:

proc menu
loop
menu stuff here
exit when menu stuff is done
end loop
end menu

loop
inputs
if inputs = menu call then
call menu
end if
game stuff here
draw game stuff here
end loop
