I started the idea here: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/659094-game-engine-that-will-meet-my-requirements/

After almost a year, I'm coming back, same ideas, but things have changed.

I started by learning C# and I did that for about 2 months, then, school began, and I had to learn C++ in school, though, with my already existing C# knowledge, the stuff I was given at school was so easy(after 1 year of study, my schoolmates barely got into bi-dimensional arrays), so I started going more in depth and because of that, I abandoned C#. Then, because my teachers noticed that I know a lot of stuff in programming,they helped me make my way to the National Olympiad in Informatics, here in Romania. Well,then I left aside C++ and started web design and I pretty much managed to learn everything useful in HTML, CSS and Javascript, and I also managed to make simple games with those(very simple ex: http://logicsquares.do.am/ , I'm still working on it in my free time).

So, those said, I still want to make my own game based on the ideas in my old topic, but I don't know where to start, would you guys give me some pointers?

What is the question?

For a 2d rpg, you can do 2d pixel blitting in monogame, sdl, or raw platform gui code. Alternatively, you can do a 2d/3d hybrid usibg low level apis like monogame, opengl, or directx - or engines like unity or unreal. Which you choose depends on you and your goals. I suggest monogame or unity.

This may depend on how you are getting art. Do you have an artist partner? Art skills? What kind of art do you want?

It wasn't really a question, more of a "please get me started".

Art isn't a problem, I'm a very good artist (both pixel-art and 'smooth' art).

What is your main goal?

Is your priority to learn, improve your skills, and understand how games work "under the hood" whilst making your game,

-OR-

is your priority to get the best quality game you can make done as quickly and easily as you can?

My main goal is to do the game, lol.

1st one suits me better.
