Stencyl Game Maker

[Venom]

Oh my god i just noticed the turn based/tactical  OMFG i can finally make my gundam rpg like Super Robot wars!

[Forty]

Does anyone know if this is customizable as in graphics. (Lets say I want to make a platformer NOT based on Mario)

[Martynator]

This thing looks awesome and quite simple, and the graphics are good to, but it seems like it can be a long time before release...

@Forcystus
From what I've read on their site and forums, you can import and edit graphics. It seems the kits the editor comes with are just the starting point. But we really can't be sure until it is FINALLY released. lol

[Forty]

Score! Gonna make cash money

[SirJackRex]

Yeah, this looks amazing.

I'm going to make an old school style Mario game. It'll be so fun.

Maybe we'll even get a Stencyl section.

Ditto that my friend.

no. to me that sounds dumb. This place is mainly for RPG MAKER from Enterbrine, and a sub section of game maker. not EVERY GAME MAKER KNOWN TO MAN OMG.

[Malson]

and we should have a realmcrafter section and a fighter maker section and a mugen section and an adventure game studio section and a sim rpg maker section and a klik and play section and a darkbasic section and a visual pinball section and a shooter maker section and a

Nah dude, Stencyl looks better than all of the other game makers. Including RPG Maker.

Stencyl, sorry to say it, looks like crap.  I think it leaves almost no room for customization, and there will be countless terrible fan games, imo.

It looks like there is customization because you can import your own stuff.
Plus, you could scrap all of the original stuff and make a game using the engine, but with your own graphics.

[Knight Rider]

awww .......i though it was already released.

[biohazard]

All I can see this making is tons of games that play the exact same with different graphics.  Boring.

Really? there are going to be 8 kits at alpha release, (stencyl 0.1) and there will be tons of fan and stencyl team kits to come in the future. Sounds like allot more than Rpg Maker.

Do a bit more research next time.

"Don't judge by the book's cover" thats all i can say......

I think this will succeed....I'm looking forward to this!  (Irock, i saw you on the Forums of Stencyl)

This whole idea of kits just sounds like bullshit, I would rather build from the ground up (or as close as I can come to it) with GM.

Which I have but im not gonna pay $20.....(saving it for a new game)

I'm pretty sure you can do that.
There are going to be lots fan kits, so why couldn't you?

I would rather build a game from the ground up with an actual language. Program it myself.

[biohazard]

Yeah, its the reason I stopped using Rpg maker, it has everything for you, so whats the point?

[Irock]

You can, just learn Java. Game maker also uses "kits." They define the way the game runs, just like the scripts in RPG Maker.

[shadowdude]

you gotta pay for this like you would for the proper rpgmaker? or is it just a download thing and you dont gotta pay to get the full version?

[SirJackRex]

It's free from what I read. Which is awesome, no limits..like some programs, you know who you are.

[Irock]

Yep, completely free.

[SirJackRex]

This is waaay too good to be true!
