Developer's Corner / Re: Best Application for Simple Game Development?

Thanks all for the great suggestions. We downloaded and installed RPG Maker XP and my daughter loves it. She was able to make a "game" (actually, just a scene from a game) in about half an hour. Now she's learning basic programming to control the game better, as well as how to storyboard.
And I'm hooked, too. )

Developer's Corner / Best Application for Simple Game Development?

« Last post by nluoma on February 22, 2007, 11:50 AM »

I'm interested in creating some simple, (rpg) games for either Windows or the PocketPC. My daughter wants to script one, and have some help putting it together. I know *nothing* about game programming, though I do program (MS Visual Basic, JavaScript, and Flash mostly). Is there anything with a small learning curve that would let her create something simple? (Or rather, let me create something simple. She's only 9, so probably won't do much of the programming.)
