Hello!

I am new in game creation.
I am looking for a game engine which create Asian Language RPG such as Japanese and Chinese. Is it possible with Verge?
Because I plan to create stories based on Japanese and Chinese cultures and lengends.

Thanks!

Simon :)

Um. Sort of. I guess. The fonts are usually just stored as bitmaps anyway, so you could redefine any character to look like any other, and if you need more characters, you could simply load a second font-set. I don't know enough about how asian languages work to suggest a way of making it work though.

Some sort of unicode support would be nice in the future, but verge doesn't natively support it through it's font rendering.

Any sort of asian characters would need to be done via a vc coded datafile/render system. It's possible, and not even really that hard all told (assuming you had a bitmap unicode font handy), but would require someone to code it.

It's a lot prettier this go around because of Jon Wofford.
