Greetings to all.

I used to frequent this board in my freshman year of high school, and consistently got my ass chewed out for my lack of maturity.  Now that I am back (and hopefully now more mature being a freshman in college), one of the more significant changes is that I'm now on a Mac.

And please leave the mac bashing at the door.  I know they suck for gaming and overpriced but I bought one for some reason or another and what's done is done.

So.

One of the things I tried to do back in my freshman year was design games.  And I sucked.  Anyone remember Metul Vonner?  Yeah.  That was me.  I'm shuddering at the memory.

Anyway, I want to get back into some basic game design.  Does anyone know of any RPG maker-like GUI game design programs that work on a mac?  I don't have the time to do any serious code based designing unfortunately.

Anyway, thanks for the help.

or you could boot in windows, continue where you left off with your masterpiece using any of the makers you probably already know.

First I need to get my hands on a windows install disc for my bootcamp to be worth anything. 

And trust me, the ideas I had were far from masterpieces haha.

Thanks for the link though, I'll check it out.

I ended up downloading Unity.  I'll probably have to familiarize myself with some aspects of coding before I can get much done, but hey, it's a step in the right direction.

Thanks again.
