just discovered GE, rather intrigued by it.

Question 1: I've long wanted to make a game similar to Metroid or Castlevania:Symphony of the Night.... in other words a huge 2D platformer... I assume GE could do this for me? I'm an artist, not a programmer, so i want to make all my own graphics and keep the programming to a minimum.. Any thoughts?

Question 2: I'm trying to work out how to have proper animations for walking characters, and i have it down with no problems. Except that, whenever my character moves, the animation is playing at a full 30fps even though when i check the animation, i have it set at 11 fps. Is there something i need to do in the script editor to change the frame rate whenever i have a keydown function/change animation function?

thanks all!

You can use Game Editor to make this game. You will need some small scripts like:
Additions: var = var + 1;
Conditions: if(myvar > 30) {do something... }

the animation is playing at a full 30fps even though when i check the animation, i have it set at 11 fps

You need to change the animation fps in Actor Control. The game fps don't will change the animation fps.
