Hey everyone,

I have been reading about and studying game design theories and methods for about 4 years now, and have even done some artwork for a small game company a friend of mine from my college swim team and I started. One of the main problems getting our game company off the ground is that our programmer can't fully commit to any of our projects with his busy schedule, so I wanted to find a program that will allow someone like me (graphic design/art/architecture/3D modeling background) to get into the "under the hood" parts of the game designs we've conceptualized and actually allow all the concept documents on my computer to become something workable.

Anyway, I just wanted to say "hello." I've been on the site for a few weeks but haven't had the time to actually do too much yet. I'm also developing my architecture thesis, which will also be on game design and how some of its more conceptual topics can be used in architecture, so that's taking up a lot of my time. I have some contacts at Valve and Bethesda Softworks with architectural backgrounds and they say that it's looking pretty good.

Sorry to be so wordy, but long story short: hello! I look forward to learning this program and maybe speaking/working with you guys on games. If you want to see samples of my game art, head to tipher.deviantart.com

Welcome to the GE forums Totter.

Cool! One of our designs is an RPG so I'd really love to get some advice on how to make one.

nice

il send you my email in PM

i have skype, ventrilo and MSN

so theres 3 ways of voice chat,
in

btw, eternal legacy, i have the entire skill tree structure done, all the damage for each spell, its speed, mana cost ect ect,
for every class, ( making sure that it is balanced, and also works well when your do hybrid class was the hardest part O.o! )

everything is done, but i am not going to release any new versions untill the new GE comes out
( i restructured the necros casting method because ppl didnt understand how to do it, )

i learned ALOT between the time i started eternal legacy, and the new 3rd game
( which will remain withought a title for now lol )




WARNING: WALL OF TEXT

when i first started E.L i wanted it to be an arena shooter, and for a time it was working out pretty good, but then i went so far in depth with the skill tree that i relised... this can not be playable as a quick death match game

so i converted it into an RPG,

making this dessision resulted in this new 3rd game, and everything i learned while making E.L has been, and will be applied to this 3rd game ( mostly along the lines of intuitivness )


(( NOTE: this 3rd game is not a replacement for E.L, development for E.L will continue ))

anyway, i took over your thread withought realising it

il give it back now
