Making a game adaptation of a book.

[LNER fan 1]

So I'm making an RPG adaptation of a book (it's listed as my current project). Now, what should I focus on first? Adapting the story for what RPGmaker can do, or what the gameplay will be like?

I have a good idea of what the gameplay will be like. It'll mostly be a normal RPG, but often going into stealth missions or driving portions that will either be like a shoot-em-up or one of those drive down a road and dodge traffic games. I'll give details on those if asked.

Well, I would focus on the gameplay since the story is already written, though having driving in rmxp would be difficult but possible through eventing.

I can kinda see how you'd event the driving, but how would you get the player to automatically go forward while still letting them maneuver?

Well for that, there is a script that allows for it, the only part I would find annoying was the mapping since you wouldn't want it to be too short or too long.

May you link me to this script please?

 

P.S. Happy new year to all!
