NOTICE I just started using this awesome program and know very little about it
I am using version 2.10 on windows XP

Thank you for any help or advice.

My idea is to develop a zelda / metroid style non-linear shooter, with a science-fiction theme. Your character would be a soldier stranded on a hostile alien world after a failed attempt to invade / colonize the planet and would play much like zelda, with similar controls, a large over world and several alien hives for dungeons.

My questions I have are:
1. How do I modify character / enemy / tile / boss sprites
2. Is it possible to modify Link's ghost sword attack so that it happens all the time without full health?
3. Could I create my own limited-use weapons / tools / powerups?
4. If so, how do I modify the weapons number of uses / rate of fire?
5. How do I create custom enemy and boss AI?
