Hi all! I'm very new to programming, but prepared to put in the immense amount of time to learn a program--I'm just curious if GameMaker is the right program that I should be using?
The idea I have for my (final) game is similar to most social sim games but with a 'dating' aspect to it.
What I'm looking to do is have standard things like different 'store' to purchase (virtual) items from, daily quests to earn in-game currency, and a way to track how much an NPC likes you. There would also be a simple, 2D animated map with small sprites that walk around and have minor animations. Customization to your home and character throughout the game is another important aspect I'd need to include.
My best examples for apps like this are things like Tiny Farm, and Sims Freeplay.
I'm aware GameMaker is capable of making all sorts of games, but I don't know a lot about programming and I wonder if there is a program that's more suited to a 2D, click based sim game like this? Thanks in advance!
