RPG Maker Forums

Hello my good people! I am a man of adventure who loves a good RPG and a good book.  My handle here is Iron Croc and I'm the Founder and President at one-man Dev Company Iron Croc Enterprise.

When I'm not practicing behind the mic for VoiceOver Training, I love to pump weights and take scenic walks.  My hobbies include composing music, playing music (Flute!), cooking (I've got my own youtube channel!) and old-school video games (Circa 1984)... Oh, and Drawing. (I'm barely a novice, but I love Drawing!)

My favorite genre to read is fantasy, and my favorite genres to listen to are... almost anything! (Except rap and country.)

My favorite foods are Lasagna (Or Lasagne, depending on where you're from), Tortas, Pizza, and tuna salad. <3

  My favorite baddies are Kritters, because of how brutish they are without totally flaunting. My favorite supervillains are Bowser and Slagar the Cruel (Google him)!

My favorite video game characters ever are Yoshi, Bowser, Link, and Fox Mc Cloud.

I'm 28 years old and I got into RPG Maker because for all my life, I've had a burning passion, a raging desire to share the vivid and powerful imagination I've been blessed with with other people the world over, that somehow, they may be inspired like I was when I was so young.

It started with Super Mario Bros 1 and 3. From then on my slumbers and dreams were filled with amazing things that I could tell about (And later, write).  Over the course of 20 years, I put together these dreams into a series of stories. From a series of stories, I got one long story, which I'm writing into a book now. A novel! I finished several drafts and now I'm onto the final stages.

In the book, the main characters play a video game about a young hero sent on a treasure quest. the more he quests, the more he realizes that his island home is in danger.  What was the name of the game? Island Quest. :)   My RM project is one giant cameo. Haha.

Anyway, I have loads of other stuff on the creative side I'm doing as well, but we might be able to talk about that stuff later.

Thank you for reading and for your time, and I hope to make some friends here. :)

Adios, peeps!

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.
