ForestLogic 03/13/18 5:51:06 PM #1:	I'm working on a game from the ground up in RPG Maker MV but with Game Maker getting native Switch export in the future, my interest is piqued. I have very little coding experience but from what I hear GMS is incredibly user friendly. Would it be a ton extra work to jump into it, comparable to learning something like Unity? Or is it something mostly anyone can learn to do. --- AKA Level 36 ForestWanderer / ObjectiveLogic #MasterChiefForSmash <cite>ForestLogic posted [p:897739033] in How time c...

ForestLogic 03/14/18 8:48:03 PM #12:	GATTJT posted... Holy shit this is some expensive software. Literally 800 dollars a year to publish to PS4 or Xbone. I mean that's probably way cheaper than you'd have to pay an outside publisher to get your game onto a console, so idk. Also for the record you don't HAVE to pay $800 at the beginning. You can make an entire game with the standard license and if you're serious about getting it onto consoles you can then choose to pay the $800 for that license. Think of it this way: if pretty much anyone could whip together a crappy game and submit it to Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo, there'd be either be a flood of garbage onto their online markets (a la Apple) or they'd just turn away like 95% of games submitted, wasting everyone's time and maybe even ruining it for competent indies too. --- AKA Level 36 ForestWanderer / ObjectiveLogic #MasterChiefForSmash <cite>ForestLogic posted [p:897816810] in How time c...
