Uh...not necessarily.

Mapping really isn't all that complicated. It's more of an artsy thing.

Use the help forum next time if you have questions. There is also a sticky in the help forum that has faqs, like this question.

Q: How do you make games?
A: We use a combonation of different things. One of the more "traditional" and commonplace methods is using one of ClickTeam's products. These are: Click and Create (CnC) (AKA Multimedia Fusion Express (MMFE)), The Games Factory (TGF), and Multimedia Fusion (MMF). TGF and MMF are not free; you can download Shareware versions on the ClickTeam website, and you can purchase copies for $30 to $50 (TGF) and $99 (MMF). CnC and MMFE are not as buggy as TGF, but cannot be downloaded legally. MMF is more complicated than the others but more powerful.
Another program used is called Game Maker. It is completely free, and can be found on the internet for download. It uses a different method for programming, and can be harder or easier, depending on how you handle scripting methods.
There are also other ways to make games. You can search on the internet for free C++ compilers and tutorials. You can go to GBADev and download utilities, tutorials, and sources for making your own GBA games. However, these methods are not very commonplace, and you might need to go elsewhere for help programming with these methods.
