Make your own role playing games with RPG Maker

If you like the classic style role playing games of first Nintendo consoles you may have a dream of making one of these games yourself. RPG Maker is a tool that will allow you to do just that.

What is great about the tool is that you don't need any coding experience to make a game and it comes with a good deal of graphic content for you to start developing right away.

The downside of the tool is that even though there is a demo you need to buy it if you want to use it for more than 30 days.

For help using RGP Maker VX it can be a good idea to seek out specialist forums. Try googling "RPG Maker" or "RPG Maker VX".

    I was just wondering if you could make a tutorial for this on creating a starting cut scene for choosing a story line or even doing a name selection or something like that
