It’s quite easy to make an unbeatable boss since the AI knows what the...

    Should I include a dating sim in my game?

    Okay, so context! I've seen some game ideas that utilize a dating and romance system, and I'm wondering if that would be a good idea! Kinda like how in Miitopia, your party members being best buddies gives them new abilities. I was thinking that the characters say different stuff when on breaks...

    Rock-paper-scissors inspired battles. Your thoughts?

    After a long while away from game making, I decided to check my old drafts and choose one to work on again. I've reworked the characters and story quite a bit, but I've realized that my battle system was kinda all over the place. I'm not good with complicated game mechanics (especially if...

    Hey guys, I'm hoping for some input on a mechanic I'd like to introduce in my RMMV game. A lot of things in my game such as upgrading skills, buying crafting recipes, upgrading items or weapons etc, all require spending gold. And a lot of gold at that. However, I don't simply want to just...

    Hello guys! I got to make a confession, I'm not that good at making levels/dungeons from the ground up, I usually take inspiration from an Song, an Enemy, kinda "Yeah, that song works perfectly in ______ level" or "Oh, that enemy would look amazing in a _______ dungeon" Well, that's today's...

    Environmental Battle Mechanics

    I've been thinking about how rare it is for RPGs to have environments that actually affect combat. The difference between a frozen tundra and an active volcano doesn't really exist outside of the enemies you encounter, they're basically just backdrops for the battle.
