RPG Maker Forums

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself to the community, I've been using Forums for around 20 years? Maybe? I'm 37 but still about 18 in my head, and always wanted to make a game... With no Coding experience I tried out Unity, I made a Level but struggled with the Coding, man it's like an alien language! You guys who can code I seriously envy you, and yeah I could learn it but I don't want to be starting a game when I'm 97.

Anyway, I found RPG Maker MV on Steam, I know it's a love/hate type of thing with people these days when games come out that are just superb, but it's not all about Graphics and First Person Shooters... It's about a damn fine story. With RMMV you can tell a mighty fine story which is all that really matters. To me it does anyway. You can play a 5 Star High Budget game with no story, more or less like these ridiculous Online Battle Royal games... Or you can play a low budget game with a story. I know what I'd rather.

Heh, Yup I can talk forever. I'm currently making a game that I've been working on on RMMV for around 6-8 Months? More or less. Has a decent story, I've been making my own Tilesets with Photoshop, I've been making my own SFX and Music for it, I'm actually an Epic Orchestral Music Composer, I can pretty much make any sort of music, but I find that making music doesn't always quench my creative thirst! Which is why I had to get RMMV.

The game I'm making is a Horror, it's about a girl who has a little sister who has "Imaginary Friends" who she talks to on a Ouija Board. The Main girl is called Effy, and she is left to Babysit the weird little sister for the weekend. Soon enough she finds out the imaginary friends aren't so imaginary, and that the little sister is involved in something way beyond Effy's control. It's very Family Orientated, and based solely on the experiences of Effy in a highly Paranormal situation. But, the further Effy looks into it, the worse it all gets... She faces choices that change the outcome of situations. She faces the Imaginary Friends in her Dreams, and in another world altogether. There are huge plot twists and some crazy mysterious things going on that I won't give away here. It's still in development and will be for a long time, but I do have a fair bit that is playable and ends on a big cliffhanger. Love my cliffhangers.
Here's the teaser which was pretty much thrown together without thinking too much, but it shows a a few parts of the game without giving much away, it doesn't show much of the update but you'll get an idea of what I'm doing... I guess.


Hopefully I'll be accepted into the community, I've been looking around and damn... some of you guys are serious legends at RPG Maker! Good on you guys! I think I could learn a lot from you!

Nice to meet you and thanks for having me!

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.
