mrmagne Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Hi, I am interested in learning more about online text based games, and I thought this forum was a good place to start :) Here are some questions I hope to get answers to: 1. What is the difference between RPG and MMORPG games? 2. Where do I start to create my own game? (I got PHP and MYSQL skills). 3. Is there any good "ready to run" mafia games to buy out there? If so, could you recommend me some? 4. Is there any beginners guide/book on how i can create my own games? Thank you in advance for answers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmagne Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Hi, Ok, i got an idea for a game. But i would like to start off with a classic mafia game. Could you recommend some good "ready to go" mafia scripts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W3Theory || Peter Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 My main question would be: How is it going to be "your" idea if you are going to just use "ready to go" mafia scripts. In all honesty, I have seen them come on here and leave in matter of days, due to to them thinking that they can create a game that has been done and no one will go play it. This is not a flame, it's a warning before you spend a cent on something as I have seen way to many people come online thinking it will make them rich or successful.

sniko Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 1. What is the difference between RPG and MMORPG games? RPG - Role playing game MMORPG - Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. For instance, Runescape (MMORPG) and Pokemon on the handheld device (RPG). 2. Where do I start to create my own game? (I got PHP and MYSQL skills). Use various software to help you; wamp to run php on your machine, includes database tools. bubblus to help you mind map your ideas 3. Is there any good "ready to run" mafia games to buy out there? If so, could you recommend me some? McCodes I suggest this, others may despise it, but there is a big community, and a vast selection of modifications. Although, it isn't a game as such, it can easily be made into one. 4. Is there any beginners guide/book on how i can create my own games? Not that I have come across, but the typical game features should come naturally; Story line Everything flows and interlinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmagne Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 W3Theory: I'am not planing to use a "ready to go" script, i just wanted to have a look at how others have done it. Sniko: I have heard both positive and negative things about mccodes. But i think i will give it a try. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
