ATEN'S PROFILE

I'm a hobbyist game maker. I like making games as both a hobby and a challenge. I'm currently trying to make a game using the Linear Motion Battle System similar to Tales of Eternia. If you are interested, check out my youtube of the progress! Located here:

I also dabble in programing software and I've made some nifty utilities but my best one so far is a Save Editor for Final Fantasy XII. Get it here:

1 monster = 3 enemies

Maybe in the fantasy world of rpgmaker you can have unlimited time & resources to do whatever the fuck you want to do, but in the world of big business, time is short, resources are low, demands are high and costs are phenomenal. Things like recolors and palette swaps save time and money and precious memory.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

I have just discovered the wonder that is OKAMI. How could I have skipped this when it came out???

Final Fantasy Dreams

Theres a quest log! It's on the airship but you'll get it later. It will be a diary in your room on the airship. You don't have to walk all the way back, you can open the menu and PRESS SHIFT and get a list of teleport locations to teleport to!

Also, the first pokemon movie made me cry a bit. Call me a wuss, but that part
Where Ash turns into stone
was pretty emotional to me.


Forgot about this one.

The dumbest idea you ever tried to make

Making an ambitious product when you're a one man army.
That's not a dumb idea. One person could probably accomplish a lot.


It says "ambitious" project. Not "look at my big open spaces and 5 minute plot" project. One person can make an ambitious project but it'll take 4 years longer than a team of people.

Legend of Vanadia

Hey, just remember, I've acknowledged and fixed a lot of the errors you found! (And some you didn't!)

Emotional Movies

The Lion King. Honestly, who HASN'T shed some tears over this one? Theres more, but this one sticks out right now.

Things I Need to Know Before Making My First RPG

1) Music, Spriting, Is it likely that I can get someone to help me out with these areas in which I am seriously lacking?

I wouldn't hold my breath.

2) Is this one of those places were newbish questions are disregarded or treated with disdain?

Yes and no. If your "noob questions" refer to things like "what is a switch" or "what is a variable" then yes. You will be treated with much disdain. Some things you are just expected to KNOW before you even think of making a game, even if its simple as rpgmaker. Luckily I have tutorials on that subject on the tutorials section. I will, however, PRAISE you if you come in with genuinely hard questions that get even the best makers here to put their thinking caps on.

3) Which RPG Maker should I use?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!

RM2K3 if you're going for the old school look and charm . RMXP if you're all about graphics and want to add your own RUBY scripts to your game. RMVX if you..... wait, scratch that, screw RMVX.

4) Do I need to do something special to make my game compatible with the Android player?

Yes. Learn to program in C++/JAVA, grab a android devkit and go program your game for android.

5) Is it possible to create a game in such a way that it is downloaded from the android market as a seperate file from the player but used by it?

see above.

6) How hard is it going to be for me to piece together a working knowledge of this system from the tuts etc. that are laying around at this site?

This, is dependent on YOU. If you're a simpleton then it won't be easy. If you have common sense, then it won't be long before you are a pro.
