RPG Maker Forums
I bought RPG Maker two years ago (I think...) and I STILL haven't finished a project. I've made a couple of practice projects (testing scripts, gameplay ideas etc) but not a full game. I also have a problem when I will start a new project, make a couple maps, cutscenes, battles blah blah then get stuck on something or get bored and abandon the project.
I want to create a short game but I'm finding it pretty difficult so far. I'm embarrased to admit that I'm pretty terrible at maths, so trying to understand stuff like balancing game stats, formula.. it just goes completely over my head.
I have zero scripting knowledge so sometimes I struggle to understand certain scripts. I find Yanfly's scripts easy to use but some scripts like sideview or abs battle scripts I just find confusing. Also I can't draw.
I'm making this game completely by myself, no one I know IRL is interested in game development. I enjoy coming up with ideas for story, gameplay, minigames, enemy and boss fights but I feel like my bad maths skills and lack of scripting knowledge and art skill is holding me back. I wish I had someone by my side who can help me, I just feel overwhelmed by all the work I have to do alone.
So I guess what I'm asking is this:
Thanks

So I guess what I'm asking is this:
- Is anyone else in the same situation (creator's block, lack of progress, frustation)?
- If you have completed a game or games, can you give me some advice on how you created your game(s)?
- Anyone who make games solo, how do you overcome your weaknesses? (bad at art, bad at math, no scripting knowledge)
Thanks

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
