Greetings,
I am Ronin. I am in my 40s and was an avid Nintendo fan for a long time. When I was a kid, I wanted to make a NES game. Due to circumstances, I have a lot of time on my hands. As of now, I purchased a copy of NESMaker and have been working on drawing NES-style pixel art. I have years of hobby experience drawing VGA-style graphics with the 256 color Ultima VII (PC) palette. It is a fun challenge to create really good and original NES art within the rules. I also write stories, music, lyrics, and poems. I have many ideas, of course. I am practicing the art and am slowly yet surely watching many videos and readying myself for the tutorials. I haven't been able to discern if NESMaker can make a game like Legend of Kage and/or Demon Sword, as one of my ideas needs to be able to scroll left/right/up/down. I will start simple, however. Action, adventure, point & click; I am never short of ideas. I hope to one day make an RPG wither with NESMaker or on PC (or SNES, if tools come out for that.) I am working on RPG mechanics for a tabletop RPG.
I have been reading posts and checking out what others have done, with and without NESMaker. I am inspired by what others have accomplished. I am better suited as a writer, artist, designer, musician, and director. However, with how difficult it can be to find programmers, I hope to learn 6502 assembly.
Many thanks for your time.
