I'm all for those kinds of games, but quite frankly, I think that they have been done *to death.* I'd be HIGHLY supportive if it supported making a game like Willow (NES), or like The Secret of Mana (SNES)/Sword of Mana (GBA)/Final Fantasy Adventure (GB), though. :D Maybe even an turn-based RPG game instead of the … whatever type The Secret of Mana is. :)
