Sorry if I'm asking in the wrong place, but do any of you know where I can find minigame scripts or tutorials for how to make minigames through eventing that are accessible to beginners?

I'm trying to make a set of events in my game for when the player goes to work. I want them to do a few mini-games each time, and they get paid more or less based on how well they do.

Thank you so much for any help, and if I have made mistakes please don't be mean.

Can't imagine there'd be a tutorial that explains anything helpful about such a woolly vague topic.

At first you'll need some ideas what exactly the minigames or microgames should be at all.

Any type of minigame would be fine, really. They could be QTE based, a quiz, about collecting certain items, whatever. Odds are I can adjust them to this work. The character will be working at a bakery, so a fishing minigame may not work but most things can be changed to somehow work in context.

A quiz would definitely be easy to implement! Just use a text box to ask the question, then use the show choices option for the answers. You can continue on from there.

One thing you can try is to look up how to create puzzles. Moving something from one place to another for example. Then have the player repeat it several times to simulate working. I have lots of minigames in my game with no scripts. It just requires using different parts of the rpg maker engine.

THE GAME AWARDS AHHHHHH!!!!!
I kept saying I suck at writing stories. But I can't believe I wrote one these days. Feels good now that the winged blonde girl I often share has an actual lore and plot going.
Huge breakthrough! I finally fixed the dimensions on the WEBM used in the cinematic that ends the demo and introductory segment in MC:RIS, around the one-minute mark:



(There's some audio desync because the capture is an MP4.)
Kudos to everyone making game jam games, because this month has been hell for my development time. I have made a cutscene, 2 sprites, and 1 tile.

I guess I've made conceptual progress in hammering out combat roles and having fixes to be implemented (though I haven't done that yet)
