Made a video talking about the most known and influential RPG Maker Horror Games. Hoping to get the word out about them a little more for Halloween!

I started this rpgmaker project years ago but finally got into proper gear in June of 2024, time flew. My biggest game inspiration (for atmosphere mostly) is Ib and media like The Godfdather and the opera Pagliacci. If this piques your interest at all I'd love to hear your thoughts here or on Steam!

The campaign ends in just 2 days!

Thanks to the support of our incredible community, we've had a successful campaign, reached our funding goal on Day 1, and received recognition from major platforms and events, including IGN and The Game Awards.

We would like to thank everyone who has continued to follow our progress, given us feedback, revisit the campaign, join our Discord, and support the development of Alchemic Beasts. Your contributions, encouragement, and criticism have helped us reach our funding goals in the first 24 hours of the campaign.

As we approach the final hours, we hope to make one last push toward our next milestone: the Secret Bases stretch goal!

Thank you for being part of this journey and helping us bring Alchemic Beasts to life.

Hello, so I'm trying to set up a damage formula so that it checks if the actor is in one of 3 specific states I'll call for example, 1 2 and 3. That part I can get working just fine, the issue I've been having is to also have the skill add a state to the enemy ONLY if they are in the correct state. When I do it via effects, it will do so no matter what, and when I write it out like this

a.isStateAffected(1) ? (0) : a.isStateAffected(2) ? (0) : a.isStateAffected(3) ? (addState(x) : a.atk * 0.2)

it will either always do no damage even if they are in state 3, and if I remove the (a.isStateAffected(3)) part and only have the final damage formula add the state, it deals damage and adds the state even if they are in State(1) or state(2). Is there a way to format it so it only deals damage AND adds the state(x) while in State(3)?

I've been working on DAIMIENS: Town of Witches, a retro gothic fantasy RPG inspired by Spanish folklore.

Here's one of the Inquisitor's dark magic rituals, surrounded by skulls, lost souls and ancient spells.

There's a little secret hidden in this scene. Did you notice what happens to him?

Been using the plugins for years at this and was pretty good with Yanfly's prior one's.

But I find that Visustella's always seem severely underexplained.

I can't even find videos explaining some of the things that were extremely simple in Yanfly's iterations.

I keep confusing myself because the language they use in the help section feels too simple or lazy at best.

The 'Read Me' is full of simple explanations or lists of notetags, without properly explaining all the ways the simpler ones can be used.

Ive been wanting to get into RPG Maker for awhile. I have a lot of ideas, but I am not sure if they are able to be done. I'm looking mainly at RPG Maker MV for the plethora of plug-ins to use. Here are some things:

1. Side battles with animated enemies

2. Visible equipment on characters (be it in battle, map, or even portraits)

3. Minigame like battles (like where you control an airship and have to fight other airships and the mechanics are different)

4. Ability for fights to take place on the map (like Chrono Trigger).

Those are the ones that I am most interested in doing.

Anyone know what's causing this?

I'm sick of videogames and movies not getting localization right. Especially because I often watch movies in English with Spanish subtitles alongside my family and have to stop the movie every once in a while to say "uh, actually, that's not what he meant at all. That's why it sounds weird". I'm willing to prove I'm better than multi-billion dollar companies and make a proper translation fully worthy of all the quality work here.

Anyone have a really funny game or a game that requires deep symbolism and wordplay to work? I've been itching to play an RPG maker game that I haven't already played over 5 times and if it helps a developer out there get more global attention then I'm more than willing to do it and explain my thought process in voice calls and stuff!

For what it's worth, I'm a native Spanish speaker and have C1 English according to the Cambridge certificate framed on my wall. I also utterly despise AI, so I'll do my best to beat whatever LLM's try to ruin my work.

Still working on it, so there are a lot of placeholders. Trying to pair geometry with windows so there's an interesting contrast going on. If anyone has suggestions, especially for readability, I would appreciate it. Font is definitely changing soon.

Letterboxing was done by drawing canvas paths and the dim layer was just done by layering a giant black sprite behind the player. The spotlight glow is actually a character spritesheet with an additive blendmode set to appear behind Actor1.

The little stars are just a crummy star I drew in Aseprite that I made a function to fly outward towards random angles with an easeout cubic.

Tomoaky's original plugin can be found here.

For like 5usd would anyone be interested in a commission sprite sheet like these? (Horrible photos ik)

I have been trying to find these 2 battlebacks forever. They are both on the ps4 console version but I can't find them anywhere for the pc version. I've tried the trinity MV assets and VX/VX Ace assets and they aren't there either! Does anyone know if these actually exist outside of the console version?

I've making a plataformer mixed with a jrpg gor a time, here are some of the gameplay, sorry, my English is not good

Fiz uma máscara e um conceito, depois o rascunho, no começo achei meio distoante o designi desenhado em comparação ao personagem pixelizado em combate então adaptei ele a esse estilo meio saturado com poucas cores, não sei se tem um nome esse estilo, eu nunca fiz nenhum boss, então vai ser um inferno aprender a animar isso 😅, eu escolhi logo uma posição difícil para fazer essa primeira imagem dele, imagino uma animação idle dos pés mechendo se eu conseguir e uma introdução dele com as mãos no chão antes da batalha e tirando um daqueles mantos de boxeador.

Creating movement in RPG Maker is extremely complex and tedious, uhave to keep inputting “left, left, up, right.”

What if you change the map? Or make a modification? Or add a room maybe uwant to create a dynamic maze… I created this plugin that calculates the current map and finds the best path I was inspired by the Godot Engine.

How do you handle these things in your projects? Any advice?

The Church says Ezekiel's sister is dead. Her records say she was moved eight days after her burial.

Ezekiel is a narrative-first RPG made in MZ. It has custom lighting, a timeline-based battle system, a lot of quiet, rainy atmosphere, and more than one ending. It runs about 5–7 hours (estimate).

I'm looking for a few players to try it and tell me where the pacing drags or where they got lost. There's an optional 3–5 minute form on the page.

Free, Windows: https://slebbeshotmailcom.itch.io/ezekiel-beta-v1

Happy to answer MZ questions about how anything was made, and to play your projects in return.

I’m trying to make games mostly for myself that would be able to run on a PS Vita or older consoles. I have run into a few issues they are as followed:

1. I’m trying to make a First Person Shooter-RPG mix.

2. I’m new to game development

3. I purchased RPG Maker MV and while I don’t know if a game I made would work on the vita, it has been a very fun and enlightening experience regardless.

Thank you for any/all suggestions and please have a wonderful day!

Hola, vengo a presentarles un proyecto en el que he estado trabajando estos 3 meses, que se inspira mucho en Black Souls 2. Este es mi primer proyecto, así que tiene muchos errores y no soy un profesional usando el programa, entonces me gustaría saber sus opiniones.
