If your significant other is a gamer and you are looking for creative ways to propose, make an RPG for him\/her. It worked for Marchaka on Reddit, who used RPG Maker VX to make an RPG game, in which he ultimately used to propose to his girlfriend, Michele.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Michele’s Quest… Michele embarks on a journey to unlock a chest that would ultimately lead to a bigger surprise.<\/p><\/div> <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This is how I did it… I made an old school final fantasy style role-playing video game, playable on the PC. The game featured 4 bosses and after killing each boss, a chest was dropped that revealed an image. Each image showed the location of a key. (hidden in real life) Next to the computer was a chest with 4 locks on it, inside the chest was a note for her to turn around. So after completing the game and unlocking the chest, she spun around to find me on one knee.<\/p>\n

The game is packed with inside jokes and tons of references to classic and popular video games. It takes about 4 hours to play through the whole thing. I spent 164 hours to construct the whole project. (programming, scripting, eventing, etc.)<\/p>\n

Edit:The game was made using RPG Maker VX Ace. You don’t need to know any programming languages to make a game. It costs about $70 in the Steam store.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

While definitely geeky, I have to give props to Marchaka for coming up with a creative way to propose. Congratulations to Marchaka and his fianc\u00e9!
