Thanks, Mikael! I appreciate the link!
Hi mbc841! Thanks for your reply to my post! I feel the same way that you do, btw--I'm in love with graphics, with picking up goodies within a game, and generally getting lost within a room or a house, or like a Myst-type of location. SIGH!
I'm glad that you found a way to make games of your own and I will definitely check out the Adventure Maker program as I begin this journey! Also, now that I know that you have games of your own out there, I'll have to give them all a try--I'm excited for you, especially about your newest game, and I am looking forward to giving it (them!)a try.
Thanks so much for your help and your enthusiasm!
Tracy
Thank you Starlite Moon for all of your information and help! I appreciate it, and will keep Adventure Game Studios in mind for a program to try. I have to admit to being intimidated by the idea of learning to code, BUT, of course if I have to along the way, I'll give it a try.
It's funny that you mentioned not quite enjoying playing games as much now that you are making them as you did before. I've wondered about that myself--especially when I'm lost in a beautiful game and feeling that joy of being a player. sigh.... I guess we'll see how that goes once I get there! lol
I have thought of doing games for Big Fish, btw, because I love the graphics in their HOGs. Not sure how to begin such a thing, but hopefully as I learn things along the way, one day I'll have the talent/skills to work with them or a similar site. I think that would be great someday, as all of the "work" wouldn't be "on me", but either way, I'm sure it'll be challenging!
btw--I didn't see the link to your site in your message, Starlite, so could you please post it again? I'd love to check it out!

Hi Elen! Thanks so much for your suggestions! I appreciate that so much right now because I'm at the very beginning of this journey into learning how to make games, and I need all of the help/ideas that I can get! smile The good news is that right now I DO have a lot of free time, so that should help! lol
I'd love to take a look at your game, so I'll check it out as soon as I can. I'm happy for you that you have been able to create a game, btw. I admire ALL of you guys who have done this, and can't wait to get there myself!
Thanks again,
Tracy
Thanks for being here to cheer on the people who replied, Marian! I wasn't able to get online for a few days, so I'm only now getting to reply to all of the wonderful posters!
Tracy, delighted by the helpfulness of the Gameboomers members!
