Hry my name is Roy and I want to develop a 2d scrolling game like wonderking 1/2 and maplestory now I have an experience with java from school (not too much) right now Im a high school student and in 2 years thats what I learn'd in school :
-if else statements
-for, for each, do while, while loops
- recursion
- building methods
-they taught us also how to use data structures like queue, stack, list, nodes, bin tree node
- creating classes and work with them (inherit classes, classes that implements interfaces, abstract classes)
-also we kind of used the graphics classes that are build in java and we made some programs using them
the hardest thing we ever made so far is this : a program with 2 buttons 1 creates a random shape (triangle, circle, rectangle) with a random colour and a random size and the other delete the last made shape (undo button)
now I know thats not to much compared to what some of you know but thats what my school taught us in 2 years..
so I want to start making a 2D scorlling game like the games I mentioned and I saw that people use LWJGL class to make their java games
so I have few questions :
- is it possible to make games like wonderking and maplestory with java and LWJGL ?
- I know my knowledge in java isnt that great but I really want to make a game like this and I wont learn it in school so I dont know where should I start and what should I do first ? (based on my knowledge so far)
- do you think a student like me can create such game ? I also intend to make this game MMORPG and I have no idea how to deal with the "MMO" part meaning I have no idea how to make an online game
Sorry for my bad english I hope you'll answer me and thanks in advance !
