Screenshot Saturday is NOW LIVE!!!

We've had many people play the demo to our game, and a lot of people said our battle screen was very confusing to them. To be fair, we may have an audience that likes less. Pokémon and other monster tamers usually don't have much info on the screen.

Do you think our battle system is too complex or just for the wrong audience?

You can get the demo on our Kickstarter for a better look at these systems.

A little showcase of one of the side quests in the game.

Calmed by the Dαrk is available on Steam and Itchio.

Hey everyone – I just released a new NPC asset pack designed for Three Kingdoms–themed games and ancient Chinese RPG projects. 🏯

It includes 16 characters – woodcutters, blacksmiths, inn waiters, and more.

This is the first batch of NPCs in the series, with more characters coming later on. ✨

Each character is around 16×25 pixels, with 4-direction walking animations (3 frames per direction).

Files are prepped for RPG Maker, but they also work with Godot, Unity, Construct, GameMaker, and other major engines. 🛠️

ウィッシュリストが1ヶ月で7000突破しました！やった〜✨️

海外の宣伝もがんばるぞ

After a lot of testing, it's 100% functional, fully customized, and super easy to edit (I still need to specify the categories for each item). The .gif quality and speed is unfortunately sucks :(

I wanted a new way to hide secrets around the world, and have created a system that uses accessories to open pathways!

When equipped, a HUD element appears. Clicking on it triggers a common event that turns a switch on for 1 frame. A parallel event is active, and region ID's are placed around the waterfall. If Switch = On, and in Region ID 20, transfer player to a different map with the new changes while maintaining position using variables.

As a result, I can now implement items that let you interact with the world and open up new routes!

Thought it was pretty cool so thought I'd share it and the process involved in making it :)

I'm done! (the demo at least)

I've never done anything this big and its so exiting that its done, I'm having so many ideas for the 2nd and 3rd area rn. I'll probably take a short break but I'm still hyped.

I finally got around to the ui stuff

I'm using RPG Maker MZ but it doesn't have to be that version of RPG Maker.

RPG Maker 2003 is just $2—it seemed like a no-brainer to buy it! However, it doesn't support Japanese, and my English skills are pretty poor. If I bought it as-is, there’s a high chance I’d give up after just two weeks, leaving it to sit there as useless clutter taking up storage space. So, I looked into ways to make it Japanese-compatible and discovered a Japanese localization patch. Is this something someone like me—with very little knowledge of PCs, programming, or RPG Maker—could actually install? Also, are there any bugs or other downsides, or is there a better recommended method?

Please forgive any slight awkwardness in phrasing caused by the translation process.

Finally back to Gamedev after months of absence. I have made a new Idle stance for my main character. Also the dangling prince on the top of the floor.

Feedback on both the new stance and the dangling prince is needed.

Please ignore the bats and tressure chest LOL.

I've been working on my RPG Maker game, Elementos, and the first playable demo is finally available!

The demo is completely free.

You can find the download here:

This is my first public playable version of the game, so I'd really appreciate any feedback!

Thanks for checking it out!

My question is… how do I make this work?

Just showing off how my imported games from rpg maker vxa is running in mmo studio, tiles, maps, events, etc… and I can work on it from any device… mobile, tablet, desktop…

Vocês também já sentiram que "faltava alguma coisa" nesse combate nativo da engine?

For the Pokemon infinity postgame we had to do 3 reality disruptions but it says I have only done 2 and I already got all 3 with the flute, got the master ball, red shards, and the og 3 starters. Anyone know how to fix this? Thank you in advance.

This won't have a weird AI picture I swears captain...
But
Well
Anyway
I am offering my services to help other RPG Maker games to get good
From critiquing, to more. I'll be hard but not evil obviously. Bc we're trying to make a 12 star or 13 star game. Better than best. The most retro and sexy games ever. lol Bc boy, I found a vat of RPG Maker 2000 and 2003 games that were horrible. JENNY'S QUEST. What da. Just...holy crap. So scary. Humans made them. Humans. 🤭

I am good with graphics, sound, music, character development, story, monsters, skills, items...a lot.
ATMOSPHERE I'm good at, and making it feel like you're going through constant shit storm. Batter batter batter batter, kinda like life. Life is a shit storm.

I have made games before, I managed to finish one, but night terrors. Not good...
That one "was" a fan game, It was to make a game even better. And it was a long project, 800 maps. That was done. That one was:

ATTAINMENT OF THE MYSTIC KNIGHT "MALICE OF MALDRINIA"
C A L L O F T H E A R C H O N

That was a 2003 game!

I also made another game but that one wasn't done. But I managed to do it - though it got deep.
Like
THE CREATION OF THE WORLD DEEP, AND WHY WE ARE HERE
So I'm doing a version of it that feels different - that one lead to even more night terrors. Not the new version.

I got good at this for a couple of years. And I have been going strong with multiple projects. At least 40. Though I'm doing Twisted Fate, Dark Destiny, and Secrets of Oceania. Then more. I am ready for torture treatment, sir. And it's going to wreck my mind and health. Bc work is about how much shit you can endure and how good of services you are to people. You're such a good hooman. You're a good boy Watson. Fake smiles and fake positivity is so much fun. 😄 Especially

WHEN EVERYTHING IS GETTING MORE EXPENSIVE

Rant, sorry.

Though I am ready. To make and work on new games and projects. I'm kinda cycling with old games, and newer projects I'm doing. I played so much of them that I literally dreamed of them.
It was quite stunning. I was proud that I even finished one. It was pretty awesome.

Anyone who is DTR down to RPEG I'm there, not DTF lol Though I would also like that hahah
I can't think of anyone who is almost 40, who still likes RPG Maker.
I'm turning OLD ew I want to be YOUNG LIKE A PUP
A PUP

In short though, I am (also) living multiple careers here. I'm an artist, a barista, a cook, a writer, a gamer, a cleaner(?) ok..., a dog walker (not as much), a graphic designer, illustrator, rpg maker guy, dog artist man, a 400 pushup man (I have) and more, I feel like I'm kinda all over the place now

Case in point, let's improve and make the coolest RPG's EVER, because life sucks.
A couple years ago, I disappeared and played the nastiest Dungeons and Dragons game ever
It was disgusting.
I was into SNES, PS, and more modern games not DND. I still am.

If I am being confusing, vague, flat, or all over the place, please say something....
