RPG Maker Forums

Hello and greetings to community,


I'm evaluating an early idea - a deconstruction of classical JRPG/Fantasy genre. I'm providing playable demo (~10 minutes of gameplay). Please keep in mind that this is 3-days hacking of completely unfamiliar system, so bugs and rough edges are to be expected. 


Story:


In a world where magic is able to bring dead back to life, how does society look like? Are resurrected persons just another kind of undead? Are undead misunderstood humans? You are about to find out as you embark on a journey into world of necromancers, both black and white. You died as a farmer and awoken as abomination feeding on lifeforce of others. Yet you find yourself not so different from your master, able to rise dead on your own. Embark on a quest to find your deceased spouse and decide if eternal unlife is really worth it.


Gameplay:


Quite classical JRPG/fantasy with turn-based, side-view combat screen.

Demo:


Playable demo (deployed to www, playable in browser, no download needed): http://www.kodera.pl/detached/. Window deployment (125MB download, zip) can be found under in this package.


Disclaimer:


As I said, this is three days worth of work, most of in spent learning RPG Marker MV. This idea was lingering in my head for years, and as a veteran of many JRPGs (of PS1 era) i feel competent enough to implement it.

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.
