Alright, originally I was gonna make this on rpg maker but I decided to move it over to GM because I wanted the game to be more action-oriented (although I haven't used game maker in like 3 years.. oh gawd) Ideally what I want is a birds-eye shooter/ RPG hybrid, which I don't think is out of the realm of possibility, or is even that hard to make. I'll go into more detail later.
As of right now I've finished the main character model and an enemy and I'm just animating them. When I get the eight-direction movement done I'll probably post a little demo (in the next week maybe) After that I'm open to help, as inventories and hp and stuff confuses me.
Heres a screen of what I've done so far. This is just a training room where I'll make the engine.
The storyline? Secret agents use cats and various animals as shotguns to fight terrorist syndicates. It's gonna be BOSS.
[EDIT] On the backburner!!!!!!! maybe on Stencyl?
