Hi >.>

Hi, I'm learning to code games, and while I don't have anything to show off yet (I can't even afford the full version of any of the RPG Makers), I thought I could come in here and see what other people are doing. Maybe learn some things for my work, maybe give some ideas to others. And eventually, maybe, try to put some of my stuff out there.

Welcome to the group!

Can't afford the full version? For now...
VX Ace Lite has somewhat limited features but won't run out of time on you.
VX Ace trial version has full features but will lock up after 30 days unless you upgrade to the full version.

Neither one can be used to make commercial games however, you need the full version for that.

Keep an eye on Steam and HumbleBundle, they both get GREAT deals on it every so often. From HumbleBundle I've even gotten 2 extra keycodes for it from different bundles for $1 as a first tier item.(Already gave those to a couple friends though, sorry.)

Pretty much this. The trial version is very good for getting a hang of what the program has to offer and give you a head start until you have the full version. VX ace goes on sale quite frequently.

I'll definitely be on the look out for sales, my income is practically zero, but so long as something reasonable comes around I can probably scrape together the cash.

I have been using the Lite version so far, and I filled out the 20 maps given to me there. But I also have an artist working with me, and he's getting together a lot of visuals that I want to put in before I let anyone else see it.

So for now I'm just happy to look around at what other people are doing and see if my two cents are worth anything.
