Hi everyone.


We're doing a bit of research into what our fans think of RPG Maker. What it does well, where it falls short. What you want to see improve, what you like best. To best plan for the future of RPG Maker, we need to know what our core customer wants.


In order to do this, we are running a short, one page survey. You can find the survey here.


If you could spare the time to fill out this survey, please do.

Completed the survey.


I hope you all do something good with that information! ;)

Filled out the short survey with some long responses~! ^_^


Thanks for soliciting the input of the community!  I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes of this.

Done. So is this specific to MV or the engines in general, because there were some questions in there where it's like 'Okay, XP had great mapping buuuuut MV, not so much, so which do I use to rate?' Might want to make things more specific next time (or a bit more clear what, exactly, is meant.)

I wasn't going to say anything, but since you asked, I figured I should share my opinion, and that is that RPG Maker needs more flexibility. I fully understand that any games that aren't RPG's are kind of outside the scope of the engine, and I have had a lot of fun thinking of innovative ways to make non-RPGs, but if its possible to open up some more doors, that would be rad.

To generalise even more, anything that isn't a (front-view battle system) is hard to make in (Ace). Even pure eventing only takes you so far, you'll eventually have to script.

Now to wait for the next version RM RM :rock-right:
 Lol, hopefully it isn't too soon. I bought Boxed copy of ace last year (October 2014, in reality...) and picked up MV on prerelease...don't know if I could resist a newer version of the software with more bells and whistles. I am still trying to make amends with my wallet...

   Took the survey but haven't spent any more time with mv than the trial period so forgive me if I inadvertently argued for something already included that I was unaware of.

Looking at the test the scale to 1 to 10 is really hard since i don't know which is 1 or 10 satisfied or unsatisfied. Might want to add something towards those questions.

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
