Thats right I have decided that I will try my hand at a game, using game maker *mainly for my GSP 110 class*. for this class I have to make a game in 7 weeks, I must have a working prototype. of course by now your wondering why, if this is for a class am I posting it here, well the fact is that I might want some people to find bugs in it, and of course even after the class I intend to work on it, futhermore I plan on making this one thread my "game maker game" thread, so basically every game I make will use this thread as a home base. *if anyone is interested in being a beta tester for my game I would appreciate it XD.

so basically I plan on making the "prototype" for GSP, but after that, I plan on actually finishing the said game and then making others.

however I am stuck at one thing, deciding the type of game, Im thinking about a Puzzle RPG maybe, but not sure.

Well, in my opinion, not every game here needs to be an RPG. I mean, come on, not even every game made in the RPG Makers has been an RPG. Look at the few DDR clones people have made in them. xd
And besides, the Game Maker is a lot better for other types of games. 3nodding
Which is not to say that you can't make RPGs in it, in fact, if you have the time, patience, and skill, you can make systems that you could only dream of in RPG Maker XP/VX even with RUBY scripting. 3nodding

As for a game to make in Game Maker, if you don't already have your heart set on a Puzzle RPG, I'd reccomend making either a short Platformer, or a Top-Down or Sidescrolling Shooter. Those are the easiest that I've found to make so far in GM.

And I'd be happy to test any game you may make. 3nodding

Original? Ripped from games? Or does it matter?

Well, you're going to have to sort through them yourself, but here's some good sprite sites.

A few of them also have sections for original sprites. 3nodding
