Flatwoods is a small adventure game built in the RPG Maker MV engine. You are Lemon, a small child that feels a great need to uncover the mystery of a "shooting star" that has just flown over your home and landed somewhere in the woods nearby. Loosely based on the story of The Flatwoods Monster, Flatwoods will be released on PC and OSX free of charge on October 31 2016.









SYNOPSIS
In 1952, in the small town of Flatwoods, something strange happened. After a shooting was scene heading towards a nearby forest, a group of the towns folk rallied together and decided to try to find it. What they found was something so terrifying that many of them ran away as soon as they laid eyes upon it, others began to feel sick, hobbling away vomiting. A creature that stood tall, with big white disc like eyes had made its way out of the darkness. At least, that's how the story goes. What the story doesn't mention is young Lemon, a child living in a farm house nearby who also saw the shooting star, and decided to go looking for it himself, unaware of the incident happening moments before. Will you help Lemon uncover the mystery of The Flatwoods Monster?

Thanks again for your time everyone, this is my first time making a game (I have been a professional animator for 15 years and DID dabble with RPG Maker 2k when I was in school) so I was a little nervous about posting 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.
