Intro
Welcome to the RPG Programming Series. This page is mainly an intro to what we'll do. 

In this series, we will make a fantasy-style RPG with GDI+. You will learn many things in this series and it will be a rather long series. We will not, however, make a full-fledged 16 hour game. I'll show you how to begin your game. It's up to you to create more levels/characters/dialogues/sounds/images...etc in the future,
