Making An RPG Style Game

[kensclark15]

I really want to get started on a full-fledged project since I have only been working on small stuff. I really want to make a free-roam RPG game where you can battle NPC's and the battles will be turn based. The only problem is that I have no idea on how to move the player from frame-to-frame. What I mean is that if the player moves right, the screen will scroll left and show new content (this will be an over-the-head game). Do I store game data in a file somehow and load this? I would love it if someone could find a tutorial for me since I have looked everywhere and I can't seem to find any.
