I's Pac Manz! Group: Revolutionary Posts: 2,418 Type: Developer RM Skill: Advanced	Hello everyone, I just got a book about Android programming for Christmas, and I am very interested in making a game. I'm wondering if there are good resources for making games, specifically RPGs, for Android. The first step for me will be finishing this books so that I have a basic understanding of it all. I feel like there are much deeper things I would need to learn for making an RPG though. In the book I will make a Sudoku game...and even though that will teach me a lot, I feel like there are other concepts and things that I will need to learn for RPGs since that is way different from Sudoku. So yeah, if anyone wants to help me out or point me in the right direction that would be great =] __________________________ Lucid Awakening 2 Demo released! =================== Momiji's Gamer Blog Get exclusive information about my RPG Maker projects, downloads to my games and demos, and other gamer reviews, opinions, rants, and whatever else is on my mind.

Also with everything being touch based I wouldn't make a rpg. __________________________ Xeilsoft - Follow your dreams to the very end.. Kits that I'm working on.

I would love (as a matter of fact) to have a 20+ hour gameplay on my iphone. It would rock to have something with great plot and a party, as well as all the other elements of a good rpg. Why would you not? __________________________ funny little things white is nothing;white is oblivion; white is a blank canvas before some idiot paints all over it. www.computerzombies.webs.com you're just jealous because the little voices only talk to me. tonight i will travel back in time. you will know i suceeded if germany loses ww II and tuesday comes after monday My skills writing/8 spriting/3 composing/5 eventing/2 mapping/5 sarcasm/10000000000000000000000 role playing and projects ROLE-PLAYING???
