  1. Can I use old RPG Maker Music in my free game?

    I'm developing a free game and I'm using soundtracks from a lot of RPG Maker Engines (except for trinity for now), the thing is, I'm also using the SNES ost. I figured there would be no problem since is still RPG Maker music but I cannot buy the license like with every other RPG Maker, can I...

    Am I allowed to include the term "RPG Maker" in my application's name?

    Hey all, I am working on a small tool (both Desktop and Webapp) that assists the game dev with some utilities. Before I launch the first prototype I would like to ask some questions to be on the safe side. Please understand that I don't want to talk about what exactly it is to mitigate other...
  3. RPG Maker-inspired graphics - copyright issues?

    Couldn't find a suitable place for my thread, sorry if I got it wrong ^ ^' I'm getting a little ahead of myself, as usual... but there's this idea I've been thinking about for the last few hours. I just have to ask about it xD I want to make a game using RPG Maker MV and its RTP assets. It's...
  4. About Music and SFX cross platform

    I recently started developing my first Visual Novel using the Visual Novel Maker software from Degica. While following a tutorial, it was mentioned due to a cross platform agreement it is possible to use music packs and sfx bought for RPGM productos such as ACE, VX and MV. I can't find...

    Do I need to put the RPG Maker license info in my copyright section of my page on steam?

    I'm getting ready to release a game on steam with RPGMaker VXAce and the Steamworks has a spot for copyright info. I did not use any DLC, or sources from outside RPG Maker. Is there a normal license agreement I need to include on my Store Page or is that strictly for any information as it...
  6. Using Music from a previous RPG Maker

    Hello, I’m currently using RPG Maker MV and want to use music from RPG Tsukūru 2, which is an SNES version released in 1996 by ASCII. Would I be able to use this music for a game released commercially? Would owning the physical game help?

    [RPGMMV] How does copyright work with artwork outside the game itself?

    So everything you legally buy for RPG Maker MV is fair to use in any of the programs, but what about, say, if you have promotional art or extra content of a character that features one of the default actors or one made using the character generator from RPG Maker MV? Is that sellable? Is it not...

    Commercial use of Default Resources - RPG Maker MV

    I have a question. Can we modify the Default resources in RPG Maker MV (Tile sets, Char Sets, Iconset, Facesets, Backgrounds) using Image editing Software and rendering them through filters, changing their size, hue, opacity etc and use them in a Commercial Game ?

    Question about Fair Use

    I'm making a game for my grandfather's birthday that I would probably like to post later(free/nonprofit) to show off and he's a huge Donald Duck fan. So, my idea was to play as Donald and save Daisy from a tower like in a fairy tale. Then I realized that Disney is cutthroat about their...

    Copyright Cheating?

    I have wondered for awhile, if you copied character design from another game/anime BUT you leave their face blank then that mean you don't violate copyright, is that true? Well, here are 2 of example: Stick Z: Super Dragon Fight, +5,000,000 installs...
  13. Is it allowed to use Sprite Maker resources elsewhere?

    A long time ago, I created a sprite using the sprite creator on this website. I have since edited it very much, but the original sprite was still created using the sprite maker. Would I get in trouble for using this sprite outside of RPG Maker Web (e.g. in a game written using a different game...

    Regarding copyright laws.

    I'm not sure where the correct forum is to post these questions, and they are probably dumb questions. But here goes. I've been working on a game for a while now, and so far I'm quite happy with the results. At first, I was planning on releasing it only for me and my friends, but I've been...

    The Youtube Audio Library for music/sfx resources?

    Can I use the YouTube Audio Library music in a free, non-commercial game? Just curious. I was making a small indie game for free, non intended for Steam or even itch.io, just a game for the small community I'm apart of. Is it ok as long as I credit and link to the original source via credits...
