mpk3951438yMan I wish I could make my own game. I honestly don't know where to start though. I mean I have an idea for one but that's pretty much it. I'm new at this so...
-
@mpk395 well it's not that difficult. Depends on what kind of games are you referring to. When I did my CS degree in uni we tend to have some assignments that are coding games. It's not those games with fancy graphics tho :/
-
mpk3951438y@po1sonAppl3 I'm still trying to look for colleges online that have the degrees I want. Can't move very far. And as to what type the idea I had was like Star Wars RPG with a linear story kind of like KOTOR but something probably no one has thought of. And Ik I probably won't be able to make it right away but still...it's an idea at least.

@mpk395 sometimes it's good to have ideas! Keep it to yourself or share it with some like-minded people! Who knows you might meet with some people who are interested and build the game with you :) take it easy mate!

mpk3951438y@po1sonAppl3 thx. Idk if it was a good enough idea though. It was supposed to be like Palpatine's origin story. You know the canon about how he was born from a noble family and ran away and joined a cult of Sith where he met Darth Plageius and all that. The RPG element would--instead of choosing light side or dark side (because Palpatine never leaves the dark side)--be choosing all the different dark side specific powers you could choose from.

@mpk395 my suggestion to you is that don't try to copy someone else's story! You can steal ideas bits and pieces of others and try to involve more people into it! Developers are good at coding but may not good at making stories ;) keep it up mate!
-
mpk3951438y@po1sonAppl3 yeah that's kinda why I thought it wasn't a good idea cause of copyright. I mean I thought at the time it was a good idea.
-
mpk3951438y@po1sonAppl3 my other idea was an open world action RPG like Skyrim but with an original idea. Yes there's orcs and dwarves and elves and all that but I sort of wanted to create my own world with its on continents divine ideals and etc. And Ik this is sounding a lot like TES but trust me I have my own idea.
