RPG Maker Forums

Hello RPG Maker forum ladies and gents!


We just wanted to update you guys and let you know the latest on where our game The Ember Series: A New Fire currently is.  We have the Early Access page up on Steam, and there is a short demo of the game available there as well. We are still actively needing a few roles so if anyone is looking to join our team, please message me or @Shinmegumi to let us know. We are looking to release towards to end of this week and start our early access.  The roles we still have need for is Pixel/Tile artist (we know, everyone needs them), dedicated Javascripter, an additional artist, and at least 1 more level designer. Now as early access continues, the teams needs may grow, so even if we don't need you or your amazing talents now, we may need you later.  Even if you are not interested in joining our team, we would love your feedback on the demo or game if you choose to get a copy. We really appreciate this community and look forward to sharing more of our game and vision with you all. Thanks everyone!


The Ember Series: A New Fire Steam Demo


Our main story line will be over 50 hours of gameplay as well as unique quests for each class.   Our story will follow five friends as they get magically teleported to a world they could never have imagined.   The Order is a powerful force that permeates the land of Mörja.  For over 3,300 years The Order has existed, making sure the people of Mörja find inner peace and spiritual needs met, however, The Order teaches that there are no gods. When one of the five friends, Derek, is teleported to Mörja, his remaining four friends, Sophie, Jason, Jerome, and Alex, inadvertently end up following him.  On their journey to find their friend, they uncover a conspiracy that will shake the foundations of Mörja.  


This is a very basic overview of a planned three game series.  We have our demo that will be released this evening that you can play through as well.  We have been approved for Steam Early Access, but we know that custom tile art is vital to our long term success.  So while we are using RM assets for now, our goal is eventually have a unique art style and battler system. Our five main characters already have custom busts designed with seven facial expressions for each character.  We plan on expanding this to at least 12 and maybe 16 depending on the desired effect for the story. We will have over 350 unique custom enemies as well by the end of production. Our demo will have two of our current custom character art in the game.  Even if you don't join our team, we always appreciate the communities feedback and support. The RPG Maker developers community is arguable the greatest asset any team has to help refine and encourage each other!  Thank you all.

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.
time for a new avatar :)
