Hey everyone, I'm Omega. I remember years ago when I was... 13 maybe, I got RPG Maker 2000 and tried to make some stupid game about a mercenary that has to rescue the president's daughter. President of what? I'm not sure. All I know is that they lived on some space station and that the daughter was kidnapped by some cult and taken to some forest planet. The clusterfuck of a story eventually led the mercenary and daughter ending up on some sand planet where they had to stop some monsters from attacking a town and some guy named Jack joined the part for pretty much no reason, then they ran into the cult again and rescued the princess of that planet and then went on to battle space pirates and... Yeah I don't know WHAT the fuck I was doing when I made that game lol. Its a good thing I never showed it to anyone (not that I completed it anyway) or uploaded it on the internet. I recently found it on an old computer and it reminded me of RPG Maker, so I got VX Ace and started messing with it as a hobby to get rid of boredom.

First game I made with Ace was total crap (though it was a lot better than the above game) and I ragequit around the halfway point since the story wasn't going anywhere and the gameplay was pretty crappy. I'm trying another one now and its been going pretty well I think. Better than my first attempts at least lol. I'm still not sure if I should make a page for it here though, or if I even want to upload it ever. I don't know, I'll consider it when I've got enough content to actually show off. Its mostly the default resources with a few custom sprites made in the built-in character generator and a custom soundtrack. So by "content" I mean finished sections of the game lol. I don't know the first thing about spriting, so a story with fun gameplay is about a much as I can offer.

While we're here, is it normal to enjoy making these games but not having any motivation to play other people's games? I've looked at the available games over and over again and barely any ever interested me, though I did download Star Stealing Prince and I'm loving it so far. Other than that, I don't think I've ever played someone else's game. Then again, it could just be me not having time for it since I'm busy working on my own stuff whenever I'm bored.

Hi, Omega, yeah, as far as I could see it is a pretty common, at least notr rare, behavior not to be interested in other peope's games, though it is very much appreciated that you do so off and on... feedback! gamers are there for that! good luck with your projects and welcome, of course!
I only make games. I don't play games. Actually, I don't even make games anymore (what am I doing here?)

Welcome to RMN, in any event.
Welcome, I also don't want to play many games and the one that I am interested are XP or VX that my computer just can't run properly. And trying to create games that probably very few will be interested since is a non-popular genre

Hope you like the community ;)
