You seem to be stuck in a trap that I once was, making game, having really good ideas, then suddenly getting a good idea and starting a new game (over and over again) Am I right? What I do is think up a story (Harder than it sounds) and write the story idea (w/o dialog), then I write out dialog of main characters. Sometimes I'll get an idea during school and write it down. Then I start collecting resources, chars, monsters, etc... Then I spend time in the Database, making monsters, items, heros, spells, etc... Then the actual mapping and making events. I usually dont bother with the dialog of NPC until I'm actually making a town.

That's my process. If it helps, maybe you will stick with a game and follow through. If you mean the actual making of items, sounds, and images, I'm not too goo in that department, but i hope this helps.

If you wanna make things look right before actually importing stuff then use the RTPs, but when your finished, import and change. NEVER use RTPs in the final, except for a few npcs and stuff like that.

If you're having trouble with the story, try this:

-Think of a few cliche ideas. Say that an evil empire wants to rule the world, and the heroes are the only ones able to stop it.

-Edit them so that they're not as unoriginal. Perhaps the heroes want to rule the world, and you, as the emperor, want to stop them.

-Change is good. If you have a better idea while making a game, instead of making a new game, take some parts of that idea and incorporate it into your current game. So now, maybe you're a foot soldier of the empire, and you and your group is out to capture the heroes.

Hope those help.

Well I can't say I ever finished a game because of that. But I'll give you a big tip:  Stik with it!
Other ways you'll end up with nothing.

Here are some of my ideas:

>A bad spirit from the past comes back to rule the world and you have to stop it.

>You are a prince and don't know it. And when you find a clue that you are actually a prince you begin your search.

Hope this tips help. :D
