So yeah, upon getting ahold of this program, I've begun designing my very own RPG. Its time consuming and an opportunity to be creative ^__^ So yeah, I've begun honing my art skills once more to make some pretty decent character art, also gotta make some sprite art for the map and character sets. Plus I need to make maps and levels, enemies, classes, have a cool main villain. Im going for a quirky modern day rpg kind of like Earthbound but perhaps with more rich story elements and a lot more time being put into it. The possibilities are damn near endless, though since the help manual is in Japanese, and I don't read a single character of Jap in any way shape or form, its been a lot of trial and error, though One the one hand, its pretty sweet to triumph and be able to make a small room where the main character gets an ally, opens a treasure box and fights monsters. I definately have a new appreciation for the people who make and design games. Though on the other hand they usually have entire design teams and departments and I am but one dewd so yeah. In the comming weeks I hope to have a demo of it at least so I can share with my friends and whomever else wants to have a gander at it. More to come later! Im enjoying the hell out of my time off!
