We Did It First screenshot thread
RockmanNeo, you GOTTA show the creepy castle screenshot. That is one hell of a map. I don't know where I saw that thing, but it was gorgeous.
Oceans, you have some cool plants growing. All over the place. They've got a cool style to them. Just something I've noticed from several of your screenshots. I also dig the old school style. I used to experiment with it a little bit. (I wasn't as good!)

I wish I had time for this, but I have to work all weekend, and I'm moving to a new city, so I have things to do. :(
The middle finger's of normal size I don't get what
Also, wearing boxing gloves gives you more of an excuse to knock a fella out if he chooses to ridicule you.
Some questions
You don't need to download any ruby program. Ruby is simply a programming language. There's a script editor
included in the rmxp editor.

WIP, that metroid game has ALWAYS looked fantastic. It's a shame that it's unlikely that Nintendo won't make any more 2D metroids. The task is passed on to people like yourself I suppose.

Some questions
1) Yes, you can make new sheets for characters. These files are called character sets. You don't neccessarly need to make them though, as there are additional sets available for download. Try http://www.mogunet.net/~mack/looseleaf/01.html and http://www.mogunet.net/%7Emack/looseleaf/02.html for some good resources. If you DO want to make your own character sets, then you can do so. RMXP supports any size of sprites, so long as it's divided into 16 equal frames. Four across, and four down. Each row is a different direction animation. Just check out another character set to check out which row is what direction.
2) These are done through move events. You might want to read the help files and some tutorials on those maybe. Pretty easy to figure out though. For cutscenes, also make use of screentone, battle animations, music, sound effects, and the whole works. They really help.
3) I can't explain a whole lot about this one, but one new think about RMXP is that it supports scripting, unlike previous makers. So yes, somebody with skill can reprogram the battle system to their needs. There are also downloadable scripts online for things such as health gauges etc, these scripts usually come with directions on installing them.
Hoped that set you in the right direction...

Your Priorities
I think the most important area for me is the characters/dialogue. They're the ones that make a game interesting, they get you interested in the story. You could take the most cliche plot, and make it interesting through good dialogue and characters.
After that, it's the gameplay. The gameplay for me is nothing special, it's never really good custom systems, but I try to make everything as smooth as possible. No annoying sounds anywhere, and just generally well made, but not complex.
And then the plot. I don't think the plot is as important as people make it out to be. It CAN completely make a game amazing (See ABL and Sunset Imdahl), but it isn't really required for a great game.
