Events drive your game! Using a simple menu interface, select commands to display messages, control game progression, trigger battles, and much more! The possibilities with events are near endless, and don’t require a single line of code.
Plugins allow you to go beyond what is possible with events alone. Use plugins from the scripting community, or code your own, to customize your game even further! Revamped plugin commands now also allow you to easily add parameters with a simple menu system.
Thinking of selling your game? You can publish games made in RPG Maker, with the assets included, as freeware or commercial titles. No additional commercial license required!
