This is an image library from White Flute. I thought it was pretty nice and makes things simple.

They have a dll to handle the image processing so it should be faster than trying to draw stuff in pure ruby.

Examples

reversing (that's the method name)



Whirlblur:



Usage

To set it up

1: copy the wfbitmap.dll into your game folder

2: replace your Main script with the one provided

3: copy the base and bitmap-ex scripts into your project

The library provides many useful functions for image-related things, such as drawing lines, polygons, and other things.

It also provides a png exporter, as well as support for GIF files (so you can actually have a GIF file playing on your screen). It works, but I'm not sure if it supports every possible GIF format out there. At least, it didn't load the ones I've tested properly (file was loaded, and was playing, but the pixels were off...)

For usage...most of it is just



Code:
your_bitmap.method
Some of them are static methods though



Code:
Bitmap.static_method
Just look at the Bitmap class.

You can draw pac-man



And textured polygons



See the method signatures in the docs.

It supports Ace, VX, and XP.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
