(Apologies if I posted this on the wrong area)

I was thinking of opening a shop where I write custom software for the game. Some of these include: a Launcher, a Save Manager (where the player can import or export his/her save files in hard to access folders (like APPDATA) and an Auto-Backup System (where it automatically creates a copy of their save files before starting up the game). The software is standalone and can be added to the game with no issues (just place it on the game's folder and it will work well).

Concepts:

Is anybody interested for this?

I'd like to note: The launcher interacts with with the game.exe through command line arguments (assuming that you have a script that adds this). It by no means modify the game's exe. All the functions are done by the custom software itself.

A couple of quick points.

Ace or MV?

What is the actual point you are proposing for discussion?  At the moment, this reads more like a preliminary advertisement.  

Why is this in commercial games, as this appears to be software for a game, and not a game as such and, presumably, could be used by someone in a non commercial game?

Starting from top to bottom:

Both.

Should have thought about it better. I was asking if there's interest for this kind of service, but out of rush I posted this in that state. Sorry.

Since I was thinking of accepting commisions for this and I could not find the right place, I posted it here. I haven't decided if it can be used on non-commercial games, since I don't know if there's interest in this.

You can still accept commissions for work to be used in a non-commercial game...

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.
time for a new avatar :)
