SpriteZilla 1 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 First off I plan to stay away from typical Rpg cliches. Yadda Yadda. So, what I want to do is use retro-style 8-bit sprites in my game. Also it will be a sidescroller but, you will not be limited to just going right constantly. No I want it be open world. Here are some images I have created in MsPaint. Tell me what you think about em. http://gyazo.com/766...b7e31020006ea21 Also instead of just text in the story, I also plan to use voice acting on every single text in the game! Ha, it's gonna be a bitch though lol but in the end worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Polraudio 122 Report post Posted June 14, 2012 ~Posts Merged~ Please dont double post. I like the sprites. The game idea is going to be interesting to see come to life. I really dont know of many side scroller RPG's. An open world side scroller might be kind of hard to do unless you put some type of fast travel. People wont want to play if they have to go left and right for 30min non stop to get back to the 1st town for a quest. If you need any ideas please ask.

SpriteZilla 1 Report post Posted June 15, 2012 Hey thanks MasteroftheMind !! I guess open world isn't the right term to use... It's more like you start off at the center and you can travel outwards in every direction (horizontally and vertically and also diagonally.) But to maintain that retro look of classic sidescrollers in the past your character will remain facing either right or left whilst moving up and down. See what I mean? Just something I thought would be nice to see because there are very few if any at all that are like this. P.s. Thanks for offering to help. My scripting skills are non-existent but my eventing and spriting are my major plus'. So if anything I may have a scripting question for ya. Thanks again. Later !!

SpriteZilla 1 Report post Posted June 16, 2012 Here is another random idea that may potentially help a lot of beginners and even experts with Rmxp. This would have to be a script (im assuming) but to have some sort of spellchecker would be great. The reason for this is that there are literally hundreds of great games and game ideas made all the time by people who aren't so great with proper spelling. I don't mean this in a negative way im just stating the fact. I strongly believe that a spellcheck script for development puropses could be an extremely powerful tool for helping those with spelling errors. So that people who speak English primarily can enjoy these games without noticing a spelling error and immediately reducing their thoughts on any particular game. Anyways, I have no clue how this could be done but scripters could probably easily do this so that others may implement it into development. Well, thats all for now. Suggestions are encouraged !!! Peace out folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
