Hi Friends,

I'm David. I'm a long time fan of indie games and especially RM2K/3. It's absolutely amazing to see what other have created here. I started gaming with the TI-99/4A computer with titles like "Hunt the Wumpus" and "Tunnels of Doom". Yeah...I'm showing my age here. From there, the classic old Sierra games like King's Quest and Space Quest were my favorite.

I'm working on remaking Tunnels of Doom with RPG Maker 2003, it an ambitious project giving this game an RPG story when it never had one before. In retrospect I probably should have remade Hunt the Wumpus first... it would have been a lot easier! (But then again... I'd want to give that game an RPG story as well!)

I'm looking forward to learning more about writing and character development here, as this is an area I can definitely improve on. So when I'm not doing my day job, I'll be here on RMN lurking and learning.

Feel free to talk to me, I'm easily approachable!

I'm back

Welcome back! Glad to meet you. Looking forward to playing your games!

What are you thinking about? (game development edition)

I'm in the same situation as you Gretgor. Have to work on my creative outlets part-time while earning a living too.

I'm surprised that this game isn't talked about. I'm enjoying it and I think I will beat the last stages tonight.

Update: Finished the game! Loved it. Wrote this review:
Surprisingly Fun!

The current version on RMN was made on the unofficial 2k3. But it will open in the legit version as well. My next update (March/April 2018) will be on the legit version, I needed it for better picture handling... as well as the expansion from 5000 to 9999 variables!

I think I'll check this out.

Got goals? (2018)

GOALS 2018 ::..
1. Finish "Tunnels of Doom" by November 2018
2. Create ToD Twitter Page
3. Record Videos / Make YouTube Trailer
4. Choose a new game to start after this one is finished.

[rm2k3] Advanced math

Hi Rave..

I can absolutely tell you that my game "Tunnels of Doom" has a TON of math events in it. Distance formula, damage calculations, among other things. I don't have any plugins, so you should be able to open the game in the editor and look at my common events.

I'm also willing to help you create what you need. I have both the Legit Steam Version of 2k3, and the unofficial one. Just PM me if you have any questions.

In short.. it can absolutely be done. Most likely you'll want your math formulas to be stored in the "common events" area, so you can call on them on any map and not have to copy/paste to every event you have out there.

Hope this helps.





Whatchu Workin' On? Tell us!

But you must feel very satisfied to have figured it out! I've done this to myself looking at some of my old code and thought "Why did I do it THIS way?"

King of Grayscale

Great Work Illy!

I wholeheartedly recommend everyone play this game!
