Mobile, PC, whatever...I’m thinking of giving this a serious go. Cr to build from the ground up (C or similar) or just use existing game engine/framework?

Seems like it might be fun to engage in game design and put your own personal touch and philosophy on it...good way to pass the time until the big sleep.

I assume you are limited by the functions of those engines...so if I wanted to include some interesting tree-decision type functionality (just as an example) I would not want to be hobbled by the engine’s design.

They’re properitary with source code access so you can use, edit or discard any competent. These are used by AA-studios and indie devs alike. Lol at wasting literally hundreds of man hours writing things that have already been done and are freely available.

I made a Pong clone in high school with VB. We made Nibbles/Snake in college with like assembly code or some shit.

I used Game Maker a while back to fuck around and make a simple room and controllable sprite walk around, didn't get much further. Hit detection was troublesome but tbf I spent like 2 hours total on this.

When I was a kid I made some text and ASCII based games in QBasic.

Are there any simple games engines that are easy to learn for fucking around with? I'd like to make an XO RPG.

Will do, thank.

Which of these XO themed RPGs would you rather play?

1. You're Peterman and need to collect the missing letters/numbers to your ETH wallet which contains 50,000 ETH. You enemies each have a few of the numbers scribbled on paper and are trying to meet with each other at RSF's evil penthouse of horror to combine their papers and drain your wallet. You need to defeat each enemy before they can get to the meeting, refueling on semen at truckstops, before finally getting to RSF's penthouse for the final boss battle.

2. You're RSF and find out that Johnsmeyer stole your girl. In order to win her back, you must take Instagram photos in first class airport lounges around the world. Not so fast: your trust fund has been frozen so you need to complete a series of shady criminal missions from the mysterious crime boss Benzo, defeating mostly Asian bosses, to earn the money for travel.
