On one hand that would be awesome, on the other hand I seem to have dove in way over my head. I think I was spoiled by that Gold Box "Unlimited Adventures" way back when and I figured that the internet must be filthy with easy-to-use RPG engines these days. This is beginning to seem less and less like a fun christmas break excursion and more and more like work.

While I think it would be a much more interesting narrative in the form of a videogame, I'll probably just turn it into a short story or something. Thanks for the offer, though.


There is also RPG Maker XP, which is an easily-ahh-pirated piece of development software that will allow you to do many of the things you're looking for here. And I think that IS easy to use. Let me expand after some coffee, but the game "Last Scenario" uses it and seems to be very well done. You can get RPGMXP through illegitimate channels and then buy it if it seems to be what you are looking for.

There is also Adventure Game Studio (AGS) which allows you to make Sierra-style games. The Zero Punctuation Guy has made a few games in that system that demonstrate the different things it can do.
