I agree, somebody should get the trial version, try it out and tell us how much it sucks in comparison with Blizz-ABS. xD
*slaps self* Get a hold of yourself, Blizzard. D:
Installing it now, I was gonna use it for making a platformer but I'll try out the action rpg, doubt it has a battle system more awesome than Blizz ABS :D
I'll edit this post if no one else posts after this one :P
Though one I'll say before I even test it is that since it can export games to the 360 through XNA, we're probably gonna be seeing alot of shitty Live arcade games :<_<:
I agree. :/ A new dimension of shitty games is about to cover us all in shit. D:
Yep :uhm:
Well I tested it out, playformers, gravity is a bit too strong, you fall like a brick. Action RPG is basic. You can attack, use an item and use a secondary weapon, bombs, projectiles etc.
Definetly not as easy to use RPG Maker anyway, annoying to use really. I can't figure out how to set up events in this, they're called gadgets in IGM. As far as I can see, you can't use custom scripts.
It's kinda of a let down, not what I was expecting really. I don't think anyone will pay the $90 for this :/
The editor is just ugly really. If Stencyl is anything like it looked like from the screenshots before they took them down, it will pwn IGM in every way... whenever they decide to release it anyways :P
Blizz ABS wins btw :D
This was posted I believe in the COmputer section. ANd we have found out it sucks ass compared to blizz abs. But the topic was called Action game maker before the named change. It lags with tons of enemies to as blizz abs doesnt.
Well once u get to know it it aint bad ...
indeed, it has no option for editing script and stuff, wich is big -
but,if u master memories & switches u can do some nice stuff
IG Maker is actually good for making games like: Legend Of Zelda, Castlevania or
any kind jump and run and shootin games.
I dont know (yet) is it greater then Blizz-ABC or not, but i must say it's looks promising.
No good tutorial come with this prog, but some can be found in u google it :)
if u could trust me, only thing that is really bad is price. 90$???
who made this prog? Bill Gates?

It is ABS for Action Based System, not ABC :P
Action Battle System, not Action Based System. :P
lol pwnt. Anyway, I'll probably take a look at this. But I'm sticking with Rpgaker xp
I might torrent save up and buy this just to make platformer. But their ABS system pales to bABS :P
I have to STOP MYSELF FROM MAKING A SHITTY GAME WITH IT!!! .... too late.
