just a "is it possible to..." question

Postby Xiphion » Tue Nov 07, 2006 7:47 am

hi, im new to this forum and i just downloaded GE like 15 minutes ago =)

is it possible to make a game similar to Secret of Mana? Its almost exactly like legend of zelda: a link to the past, but with RPG elements. if its a yes, then holy crap... im gonna be learning my ass off with this porgram xD

also, is it possible to make multiplayer? like make it connect to a server so that other will be able to play with you, or have like a 2 player fighting game or something.

With GE, almost any 2d game is possible, but can be difficult, especially RPG type things. Zelda-type games are probably easier than traditional style RPGs, but can still be difficult, although entirely possible. Basically, the only limit is your imagination and creativity, and the limits of your computer. Basically, learn as much as you can, and then make the bigger decisions. Don't expect to make a really awesome game first-off. If you have a really big project in mind, do a lot of simpler things first, so you don't get dissapointed. The number of times you look back at something you were working on, even from just a couple of months ago, and think how little you knew then, and how much better you could have done it.

For your second question, multiplayer games are not possible at the moment, but are scheduled for the next release, coming soon.
