It's been 4 years since I've last posted content on NG. I got only 11 fans. However I'm still glad. Reading some comments on the ROC Commander game really inspired me to go big and go at it again. Perhaps bringing my fantasy world in the form of a purchasable game on steam.
I'm really stuck between the choice of making it a point and click adventure/strategy/tactical game or as a RPG Maker kind of game. I'm weighing my options as to which one would be the most profitable investment of my time.
Tyrano Point n Click
I could go this route, I've made two fairly short games on it already. Both took about a month to make. (But for it to be a sellable steam game it'll need to be at least two hours of gameplay with original content.)
RPG Maker MV (Ace)
Highly playable in a more RPG sense. Problem is that area is flooded with crap games. So it'll be hard to stand out, also it'll take much longer to produce due to master the tools and create original art for everything.
I feel Tyrano is safe but it might be harder to really expose my world to the player one text box and picture at a time. With RPG Maker I feel I can really get into the characters with more art etc however I don't want my game to be focused on combat. I want it to be story driven and entertaining. NG unfortunately will only be a decent place to get feedback on short and small things, if I plan on making it a steam game it'll need to be a large project fit to be bought and somewhat liked among either community, PnC or RPGm.
Anyways, in the meantime I'll continue to work on some art to get my characters locked in on art style and concepts. I'd really like some opinions on the matter.
