  1. Ok, I'm really new to this. I've looked but theres not a terrible amount of information on ig maker out there. My primary interest is platformer and action rpgs so ig maker looked pretty good. Plus I like the option for XNA export. But I have a soft spot for turn based rpgs. Is it possible to make a turnbased rpg with ig maker? From what I've gathered it looks like its probably not likely, but as I've said, information is somewhat hard to come by. Thanks for any information.
  2. It's possible, but the amount of work you'd need to put into it seems pretty daunting. Also you'd have to make some compromises for certain things like you couldn't have an item like armor reduce damage and things of that sort. It's not really built for stats, but you can make some simple ones that tie into things with memories. It would just take a lot of creativity and time and, as I said, compromise.
  3. Thanks for the response. I've been reading your "theories" thread and it has given me some ideas as to what can be done. I wouldn't be looking for full blown rpg, just a turn based battle system where maybe you could pick different attacks or have more than one person in a group that could attack ( I believe you sort of touched on that in the theory thread). I'm still working through the trial and will more than likely purchase ig maker, especially after reading through the theory thread. But knowing that it's possible is encouraging. Hopefully I'll continue to pick up on it and get there one day. Thanks again
