Well, I want to make a game, a small rpg, not spanning too long, but I have a few questions.

Can i make a game with Gigas with a mac? Or is Gigas compatibble to mac? I have a mac, so no dev tools for actual programming iis available to me.

What is the basic process to make a game in Gigas? I donm't know much about it so talk baby talk to me.

How do I input my tiles characters,sprites and so on?

Is it possible to make a game with gigas on my GP32, like, not working on the cimputer?

Any help would be cool.
 
1 if you can edit pics , well, ya, on a mac then you can use gigas

2 its all in the prog itself, practicly point and click, and things are "done" through a process called hotspots, similar to triggers if you have ever used starcraft map editor - no language, pick what hapens and when from a pre made list

3 you just stick them in a folder on your pc, run a certain file, ( it will tell ya ) then put that file in the gigas/your_game folder - easy

4 yup , whole editor is on the 32, barley even need a computer

gigas is so easy, you should like it
you can set charecters with one click, then define them all on the 32
you can have teams, guards, in-game cutscenes, FMV's, as many maps as you can make, and SOOO much more
dont worry, second ur confused, ask a question, well help ya, or at least I will, im here ALOT

This could be a problem since he's got a mac, though I think there's a very good windows emu for mac that'd do the trick, and if not, its probably just a matter of getting hold of the equivalent tools, which probably exist (at least in source...)

Well, I been toying around with the demo, and am strating to learn the basics. I wanna know some things:

1. How can I start a new game from scratch?

2. How can I use all the sprites and stuff from the demo of Gigas into my new game?

3. How do I select a new character to use? (like in the demo, when I click entities or something like that I can only get the Chrono guy, how do I get more?)

4. Can anyone make a Link sprite and attacking animtions for me? :lol:
