If you can code (JavaScript for MV/MZ, Ruby for Ace), you can make pretty much anything you want. Just keep in mind you'll be fighting the engine every step of the way, which will require a lot more work than the "intended" types of games. You can break the mold with stuff like Zelda-like action-RPGs or even 3D, which is possible through the use of plugins. RPG Maker excels at making a specific type of game: those resembling old school turn-based RPGs like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. It really depends on what you are trying to do - chances are, you bought or are considering RPG Maker because you want to make an RPG. On top of RPG Maker Vx Ace, RPG Maker XP and RPG Maker 2003 are all also discounted, 80 and 50 respectively. Their flagship product RPG Maker VX Ace ( quite the name ) is currently on sale for 80 off. RPG Maker VX Ace brings powerful new tools to the table to enhance your RPG-making potential. A database to track your characters, skill, equipment and more, all improved with the powerful new flexible Features system.

Q: I literally bought RPG Maker for full price before the sale!Ī: Contact Steam Support and they might refund the difference.Ī: Yes. It seems that Degica games, the makers of the popular RPG Maker series of game building tools are having a sale today. RPG Maker VX Ace improves on every aspect of creating your very own epic adventure. However, buying from Steam lets you use any Steam Wallet funds you may have, and RPG Maker goes on sale on Steam more often than on the official website.

Q: Should I buy on Steam or the official website? What is the difference?Ī: The Steam version will be tied to your Steam account, while the version from the official website is standalone but also includes a Steam key. Q: Is the Maker Series bundle worth getting?Ī: Only if you want SAKAN/MADO/GENE (not exactly necessary, check the store pages for yourself to see) and Visual Novel Maker (which is its own engine). Just don't get VX! VX Ace is VX, but better in every way. The next best would be MV, for multi-platform and existing community support. MZ is the newest version and many developers will be shifting focus to it, but many feel it's only a small improvement over MV.

Many people are still using older versions! Looks like another Steam Sale! This time all the old discounts are back, but unsurprisingly the newest MZ has not been discounted at all.Ī: The newest version you're willing to pay for, but don't fret if you can't afford the newest version.
