RPG Maker Forums

Hey, I'm Zovc.

I hail from the US, but after living almost three decades in the same small town I got quite tired of my life out there. I decided to take the majority of what I've saved and go traveling to see what life around the world is like--maybe I'll find a place I'd actually like to call home? Currently, I'm teaching English in Southeast Asia to help pay my way, and it's very light on hours. I can only walk so much, and I can only communicate with folks so well since my understanding of the language is very basic, which is leaving me a little introverted and longing for a creative outlet.

Back in the day, I fooled around a lot with the legacy RPG Makers, but I never really made progress on any of my ideas. But, over the years I've had quite a few inspired ideas for games that I wanted to follow through with. I tend to gravitate towards games that aren't destined for the spotlight, and would like to see some of the mechanics and themes I've grown to love have their torches passed on.

Over the past few days, I set up an emulator to play an old favorite--Time Stalkers from the Dreamcast--and the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to give making a game inspired by it a shot.

So, howdy, I'm going to be poking around and trying to figure out where to start with this project. Once I gather my thoughts a little better and find the right place to make a thread focused on that (if there is a place for that), I'll try to open some more specific discussion.
