Looks sweet. As long as it runs well, I give it the Zee stamp of approval. Which is like 20% cooler than being Gephart approved.

Where's the exit to this huge maze? RPG Log 9: Added a simple battle AI to the first enemy (all attack, the arrogant jerk). Added a wallet, better chest/door systems, and animations are better. Not that you can tell with these still shots...

Well if you haven't moved the BG from zero, the zero isn't needed. Is it running in the wrong DISPLAY?

Well, this is a game crasing bug... RPG Log 8: not much, but fighting is now better. I just need to add an AI. I'm also adding keys and key doors. The first 'dungeon' will be messed up. In a cool way.

True. RPGs don't take up too much power. All you would need is some base code and data statements. As long as you don't hit a million lines of code (If you do, wow) it would work. A power boost would only be significant for larger games.

Well if you're already experienced with a language, it's much easier to learn another. Though probably the most similar language to SmileBASIC's language is Python, if you already know C#, it should be easier.

If you have the right knowledge/experience, yes.

If you jam enough colons in there, it will work out, right? RIGHT???

I am planning to have a demo soon, as soon as I finish side-battles and the first dungeon. That way I can show that I'm actually making progress.

Assuming you've saved it as a SC in the map editor (if not do that first), you can do DIM MAP[0] FOR I=0 to 3 LOAD "SC_MAPNAME_L"+STR$(I),FALSE,MAP BGLOAD I,MAP NEXT I might have screwed up with the loading syntax, but you get the idea, right?

Never! RPG log 7 (this one's a doozy): added an inventory. Added chests, a new area (the city), and new NPCs. Some improvements to code. When you're in a shadow, you're now shaded. Added paths to change location without doors. Started work on Side battles and Top-down battles.

1. yes 2. I personally no. Maybe more terraria level, not very good with 3d stuff. It's possible though, yes.

That AI... is better than most people, myself included.

We're off to see the wizard! RPG log 6: now with cutscenes. Not too much, as I've been busy the past couple of days. Not sure if I mentioned turn-based battling in the last one.

The s'kills! Nice game, calc84. Key: QK4N3PZF, just because someone would ask.

I might just go with different ones for different occasions. I might have to go with top down just for the standard enemy, but others for bosses and such. Thanks for your opinions!

Top down action (IE the Legend of Zelda) Side scrolling action (ie Super Smash Bros) or turn based action (pokemon) Please tell me which one you'd prefer!

Why hello! RPG log 4: So this one took a bit. I added NPCs. I also fixed a big door bug. Next up: battles!

Well it has local multiplayer but not online. It is about the same as far as difficulty goes.
