TIGSource Forum is a famous forum.

forums.tigsource.com/

The focus of TIGSource Forum is on independent game discussion. Therefore, besides Technical sub-forum(for programming questions), there are several other sub-forums for the other aspects of game development(art, audio, etc.):

TIGSource Forum is still a popular forum(over 1000 posts per month). Nevertheless, it was much more popular some years ago. (From 2008 to 2013, over 10000 posts per month!)

Interesting site. Quite a discussion on one of the forums in regards to rapid development tools. Not how to use them but discuss the pros and cons of some of the popular tools.

Although rapid development tools a great idea, I am more of a supporter of, tools built by using the programming language (in this case RCBasic) itself. For example: N00b's game engine. Looks like it was coded entirely with RC... Naalaa also has a Map Editor and a Raycasting Engine as well as it's own editor. All written in Naalaa. Having the tools written in 'the language' greatly reduces incompatibility issues that may pop up in third party tools...

Tools or no tools... Creating a good game is the main goal...

May your journey be free of incident.

Live long and prosper.
