You MUSTknow how to use either (Game Maker 8, Unity 3D, or RPG Maker VX Ace)
I know how to "use" them all, but using them effectively is another story. I quit using RPG Maker when RPG Maker 2003 was still not even translated, so VX Ace is kinda out of my interest zone. I am told the newer versions have powerful scripting support, but I have not been convinced of this. Game Maker is appealing in many ways, but I never got into it, because I was already making games in Flash and saw no reason to switch when I was toying with the option. I see a reason to switch now. Game Maker and RPG Maker are both integrated into Steam now! I also know a few friends who are working with Game Maker to make some pretty impressive game demos.
I just got started with Unity, and while I understand the programming, I do not understand the editor enough to deal with it right now. I have been toying with it off and on for a few weeks, and I have developed a few simple behavior scripts and an animated model, but I have not figured out how to get a working UI yet. If you think I could be of use, let me know, because I have the general programming experience to make a functional RPG system (dialogue, choices, shops, equipment, random encounters, etc.) and have a working system already developed for AS3.
