Hi there!
I'm "shopping around" for Game Engines that would allow me to create a simples Strategy RPG (in the vein of such titles as Final Fantasy Tactics and such). Right now i'm more concerned in finding an Engine that will allow me to create a fighting system that's robust but not overly complex.
And i'm wondering if you guys think that Darkbasic would be the better choice for such an project...
If it is, can someone please direct me towards maybe some projects in the same style or some tutorials, guides, books that i could use for this?
For those who don't know the genre, i added some pics of "final concept" of what i'm aiming for.
