What are some good game development programs for kids? Shameless Plug: You're right, RPG Maker's engine really limits you. A few years ago, I got fed up with some of the engine limitations and decided to try and make a better version, one that offers more power while preserving the simple, easy-to-use interface that made RPG Maker popular. I'm a lone developer working on it in my spare time, so it's still not quite finished, but I've got a lot done and a few RPG Maker users with really big, complex projects are interested in converting over once it's stable. You can find the project at turbu-rpg.com if you're interested. |

What math should all game programmers know? @Skizz: Yeah. You need trig to turn an angle and a power into an initial vector. After that you just need an animation loop and a gravitic constant. |

What technology is best for building my first game You're asking about premade engines, but they're pretty specific things. What kind of game are you thinking of building? |

What math should all game programmers know? I remember when my little brother tried to make a Bang-Bang game as a project for his high school VB class. He had everything worked out, except he had no idea how to make the cannonballs fly in an arc based on angle and power, because he hadn't taken Trig 1 yet. After I explained the basics, it worked just fine. |
