The previous one finally manage to sink, so i guess it's a good time to create another one.Thread for discussing - old, new and future releases of games on RPG Maker engine.
>>4069919im 70 hours into zakuzaku actors
>>4069919>newYeah right. 9_9
>>4070108I did put an itch.io link to one of the recently released games, in the previous thread, but none of you niggas wanted to play and post about it (˶ -᷅⤙ -᷄ ˶)
>>4069919All the games worthy of discussion already have dedicated general threads here.
>>4070185Both Deltatroon and Dilate Outside doesn't deserve a discussion nor generals there.
The saddest thing I heard was a podcast, where someone spoke with a voice synthesizer and was talking about games that inspired them. Omori. So the host brings up Omori two seconds later, and the person shifts like "Oh, I've never played it."
Friendly reminder that Dark Necklofar's dev is still seething about his game not only being mentioned on web, but even worse, in a gaijin list
His Name is Azazel Here?
>>4069919I remember when sequel was good.
>>4069919I have found memories of Nocturne Rebirth, it's been more than ten years!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c5Z7HMFIY4
>>4069919Can RPG maker handle DRPGs?What about transitions between a first person dungeon and a third person overworld like Ultima?
>>4071517I remember one schizo-cored/"weird"(don't remember actual name, but there was that leafy dryad looking gal that hanging out with protag for most of the game) game that was from first-person perspective and i suppose counts as DRPG, so this type of games definitely possible. Not sure about perspective transition though
>>4071517Definetively on MV/MZ, First-Person Dungeon Crawler, Blobber, whatever you wanna call them have custom scriptss for RPGMaker XP and VXAce but the plugin called "MZ3D" for RPGMaker MZ is the easiest and most stable one to use.I think you can easily find a download link for the paid version online since the free version is missing a few small features.
any 2k/2k3 recs? so far ive played and finished: enchant farm, helen's mysterious castle, 7th stand user, tobiden and seraphic blue
>>4072325If it's really all you played i could recommend you to check thread pinned picture. It's have it's good share of 2k games, including few Western-made ones that i don't really seen people discussed before.
>>4072325Final Fantasy Endless Nova
>>4070319Both Dark Necklofar games are on my hard drive and there is nothing he can do about it~
>>4072403based
>>4069919I wanted to like Amber Throne but>bug that randomly hardlocks
>>4072415Didn't encounter any bugs in my attempt at playing through it, but it's have a issue of getting kind of sluggish. Like, you go through the city and then a settlement where you get your first companion, and after this the rest of the game is basically you just walking through various area without much talkative-npc, and fighting enemies.(which is not even really hard, if you grind on the constantly respawning group of soldiers before leaving the city)
>>4070165Well post it again.
>>4069919>tobiden still listed as untranslated
>>4071594Zelle or Disillusion
>>4072325Towelket 1
>>4072642>DisillusionYeah, i think it was it, thanks.
>>4072767Holy shit Disillusion that game was probably one of the most psychologically damaging rpg maker games I ever played from my personal experience and I love it for that
>>4072497I don't remember specifics at this point. I played it when it released I think and made it a substantial way through, only to find out that I could not progress and it seemed to be a somewhat notable occurrence. >after this the rest of the game is basically you just walking through various area without much talkative-npc, and fighting enemiesYeah. I got 9 hours in it. I know what the basic gameplay loop is like lol I did go back at some point to try and replay but did not get far (don't know why).How was the story?
>>4072777>How was the story?My fault for not being more specific, i never finished it as well. Like i said, there is not that much dialogues/plot advancement after you leave the settlement and to roam the map. Maybe it gets better by the end of the game, idk.
>>4072770>disillusion psychology damaged meWell the whole gameplay loop does look like it’d drive a person insane I’ve heard people fell in trances playing this I’m not joking
>>4073325i dunno anything about disillusion apart from the fact that melpomni’s hot i mean look at her
>melpomni
Friendly reminder to all serablue fags to play Prayer of the Faithless and Dhux Scar
>>4077974Friendly reminder that Prayer of the Faithless is a sequel to Soul Sunder.
>>4077974>classic survival-horror gameplayI will pass.
Is anyone there tried playing one of the German 'maker games? I wanted to play in Vampires Dawn but kinda got scared away by "saving being a very limited resource you need to grind for" retarded mechanic.
>>4078046I like Vampires Dawn, they're filled with jank and soul but they are very much games where you can effectively softlock yourself yes. The most effective way to play is also very unintuitive.
>>4078092>The most effective way to play is also very unintuitiveI wouldn't say grinding goblins and wolves on a world map before doing story missions is that much unintuitive, but it's sure is annoying. Like genuinely, already on one of the first story mission you get betrayed by an evil asshole who turn you into vampire and his gf, and forced to fight your way out of place alone through hard enemies who you totally can't beat if you didn't prepare yourself for it previously.
>>4077977It's really a shame the game is practically forgotten now, and the dev doesn't give a shit about remaking it. I'm playing it rn and having a blast>>4078011It's just a regular jrpg lol
>>4078046I tried playing Reign of Blood but the story was pretty boring. On the other hand, I played Deceit of Heretics on java back in the days and that was the coolest shit ever. I still don't understand why there's such a huge gap in the writing quality between two games given that they were made by the same autistic dev.
>>4069919Is alchemy schoollife lost media?(Yes I know it says it’s untranslated but seriously is it I cannot find it no matter how hard I look on the internet)
>>4070201this right here is the biggest crystallization of what bothers me about the rpg maker "community" in english speaking world. nobody is interested in each other's work. they only want you to play their game but they don't want to play yours.
>>4080066That's not an RPGMaker thing, it's a modern developer and secondary thing. These people are the sorts to decorate their bookshelves with intellectual works that they've never read, it's just brand name clothing for them.
What are some good VIPRPGs? Other than Enchant Farm and Helen’s Mysterious Castle, that is.
>>4080934do you know japanese?
>>4080949No.

>>4080957Then what's in the catbox collection is what you've got.
>>4080066The hard truth is that it's hard to find anyone who wants to play amatuer games. They want indie games with AAA production quality.
>>4069919Cinnabar Nights just dropped what do we think of it? Looks RAD to me but that's jut me
>>4082203Buy an ad.

Is AI become decent enough to try playing some of untraslated rpg maker games using MTool?(Cirno Advent) I really liked playing Elona and kinda want to try MeguriMeguri because of description in 'Maker Gems image that saying it's similar. >>4081009Search engines, or Google at least, doesn't seem to give any helpful results about it. Couldn't find it on nepchan it either. Is there some other site to look up these games?

I wish this place wouldn't be soo fucking dead so there would be a point to actually discuss games, outside of Ruina, Enhancement Farm and whatever else people actually care about. If only we could maintain a /vg/ thread...
>>4084148What do you mean? There's already several "general" threads right here on /vrpg/ for Look Outside, Black Souls, Sequel, and others. You're just salty that your preferred games get no attention while the ones you disrespect get it.
>>4084740Why not discuss other games?
>>4084809>game sucks, has no staying power, has no points of discussion worth continuing past a single playthrough>no one talks about itIt's pretty simple dude.
>>4084740When i meant "games that no one cares about" i mean exactly that. I want to post about some obscure shit,(or maybe not even super obscure shit, since it's still on that image list, well whatever) but it's basically going to be like a speaking with a void, since there is probably around 3 active anons in there total.
>>4082733...Do people got angry on me for mentioning the AI part and decide to gatekeep their favorite Japanese rpg maker sites because of that?
What game is this webm from?
>>4082724
>>4082238>>4082724PLEASE buy it
>>4082733>>4085283It's not exactly ideal but you can try it sure.
https://x.com/Zomia_Studio/status/2097145647879397539How do Japanese keep doing this shit.
>>4086445...nigger are you SERIOUS? The name of the game is across the bottom of the image right at the start of the video.
>>4086653I think a better question is, why do I only ever see beautiful and sexy white people in video games from Japanese developers anymore?
>>4086654Why do use random Korean kid as your reaction image
>>4086655>anymoreAnimu was always depicting exclusively white people in it, even when using Japanese names for them.
https://x.com/rpgmaker_villaA/status/2097253641640128669I totally see it being used in some shitty ass hentai games for undressing and stuff like this, and literally nowhere else.
>>4086660Yeah but you used to see them in games made by western developers, too.
The RPG Maker game HELLO, HELLO WORLD! is about to be taken down on November 18, 2026 (https://x.com/metro04_/status/2097521329289486502).https://20xxsummer.tumblr.com/The dropbox folder has the Japanese and English versions too: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/r8oq8br70a9on6l/AADtUoCipKiec0NixP_eftr5a?dl=0managed to capture the freem download link to the Japanese version on wayback: https://web.archive.org/web/20260909153659/https://dl5.fgamearchives.com/archives/win/10766/HHW1.1.0_JP.ziphttps://www.freem.ne.jp/win/game/23624English translation: https://metoko.itch.io/hello-hello-world
>>4087286>Please note that regarding translation versions produced by dedicated individuals up to this point, they have been uploaded to various sites, placing them beyond my ability to take offlineSo it's a nothingburger, i guess.
>>4087563You mean another case like the original Mogeko Castle waiting to happen. Only the Chinese translated version and the remake were available and the original JP version was lost for several years.
>>4087577If no one from Western part of Deep-Sea Prisoner fanbase could bother to put a Japanese and English-translated version on archive.org, or something, it's on them.
>>4087286The game is really mediocre, just like Bury, so it's not a big deal.
i need to make a map for Cinnabar Nights or i'll just keep getting lost over and over again
>>4087675I haven't played this one yet, but Bury was a pretty fun game. The shitshow around it is ridiculous though.
>>4087676Nigga stop shilling this shit, you'll be treated as retarded as towelket posters.
>>4087838I talk about whatever the fuck i want, faggot
>>4087286Why though?
>>4088403artists on the internet, especially Japanese and Korean ones, always reach a point where they have a melty and nuke their stuff.don't assume your favorite art or games will remain on the internet for any amount of time
>>4086658What the fuck do you mean "random," that's a picture of me. Do you guys not use pictures of yourself to portray your own reaction?
I'm really hate when devs put too much effort into making environment interactable as possible in their projects. My autism doesn't let me to ignore it and stop clicking at every object, while my progressing ADHD prevent me from actually enjoy it.
I've been playing some old RPG Maker games I was nostalgic for lately, largely due to this guy remastering the Legion Saga trilogy (third one is still in progress, near completion I think?) https://pmcdc.itch.io/Legion Saga is a trilogy of games made in RPG Maker in like 2002 to 2004, very obviously inspired by Suikoden. The first one is very "babby's first RPG Maker game" but the second one is a huge step up. Obviously written by a teenager but very endearing in that way. These remasters toss in the EasyRPG executable, fix bugs, update a bunch of menus and such, and include a bonus dungeon in each game. Saves transfer from game to game for extra stuff. Worth checking out if you have any nostalgia or curiosity for that period of time in RPG Maker history.
>>4081075Sadly nobody will fan translate the ALTERED version which has far more mechanics and an easier to navigate battle interface.
>>4069919This list should be updated. There's a couple of games that have been translated for a while.1. El sueno de la razon has very little text, but what there is is already in english.2. Utahonotatari3. Tobira no Densetsu4. Kagami no akumaThese last two were translated by the same team that does towelket. Speaking of which, has anyone played yorumorukimiri? I remember reading it is like 40 hours long, and it also has been translated like a couple of days ago.
what's the verdict?
>>4092122>towelket but 40 hrs longLiterally how can you stretch out such silly style for 40 fucking hours, I can't even imagine.
>>4092604Even more ai slop. Seriously, what kind of question it is?
>>4092723All the things I hear of Towelket makes me think it falls off super hard after the first 3 games.
>>4092974It doesn't. In fact a lot of the later games are leagues better than the first three but are hardly talked about for some reason
>>4092723Did you never play past 3? Later games still feel very "towelket" at their core (mostly because of how the characters are reused as actors with associated traits and all of that), but they're definitely not just as "quirky" as, say, towelket 3.>>4092974It picks up with the spin offs. Nekoashi Otome is closer in spirit to the first games in terms of humor and how it tugs your gut unexpectedly at times, but Laughing Warawau is probably the best game made by the author using the RM2k engine. Dekapari is also pretty neat. The other newer games are kind of shitty, but I definitely recommend playing at least these 3. If you liked 2 and 1, you will definitely find those games are on the same level or even above in terms of quality.
>>4093048At the end of the day, everyone is just sick of this japanese quirk chungus garbage. That is why your Slopket has no lasting legacy even compared against the simplest Western RPGM releases like Look Outside. It's pitiful that the Japanese can't come up with something even 10% as compelling despite their decades-long headstart.
>>4093052
Everytime Towelket is brought up in one of these threads all you retards say is "its good oh actually some are bad but play the good ones" and never elaborate beyond a screenshot of an anime girl saying "Fuck". I'm open to all kinds of things but the way this game's own fans feel the need to shove themselves into every conversation without actually saying anything of substance makes me think they couldn't even sell a severely dehydrated man a bottle of water.
>>4093104It's because the kind of "gamer" who plays Sludgeket isn't interested in playing a game at all. They'd be better served reading a webcomic or manga or literally anything besides a game. They want to "be part of the discussion" without actually having to put forth the bare minimum of effort to be part of it.
Real Towelheads rate 6 and 0 (I will not elaborate)
>>4093114See this is exactly what I'm talking about. Nobody in this thread knows what the fuck this means. You can't just keep spouting random bullshit whenever the topic of rpgmaker games come up and not expect people to find you retards extremely obnoxious
>>4093114Based. Keeping the normalfags filtered is a feature, not a bug.
>>4093052>>4093110You'd be a lot happier if you stopped thinking about rpgmaker.
>>4093048I tried to play Warawau and got bored to death, the plot is just schizo for schizo sake, the chars have zero charisma in contrast with the other entries, and the ending utterly shits the bed (pun intended) as it completely nullifies everything what happened prior to. Calling it the best rmk2 towelket is a very delusional take imo.
>>4093333You probably weren't really paying attention to anything that was going on but I have a feeling explaining this to you is a lost cause. There's plenty of substance there for those who actually want to engage with it instead of sitting around and waiting for a loli to get raped. Really its the only Towelket game I've actually liked
>>4093345I just hate "it was all a dream and none of it really happened lol" kind of stories, and I surely didn't expect such a cheap trick from towelket of all rpgmaker games.
I liked that unreleased Towelket game, that was super edgy and then there was that girl that forced to remove her womb, or something, started to spout transphobic stuff.
>>4093052>Muh Look OutsideShouldn't you be shilling "Welcome to Enderfield" as the current fotm troon-coded 'maker game thing?
>>4093491Iirc Fury was actually released, it's that it was deleted right away when the dev had a traditional japanese meltdown lol.
>>4092974What I don't understand is how Towelket 3 is consistently brought up as one of the good ones when its fucking terrible. It's just as meandering and obnoxious as Towelket 6. Both are impossible to enjoy unless you're really into pixelated loli rape. 4, Fury and 5 might not be as good as 2 and 1 but they easily clear Towelket 3 lol
>pixelated loli rapeThat's what every true 4channer should be into.
>>4093889It's even worse than 6 because 6 at least tries to deliver the usual towelket, meanwhile 3 presents absolutely zero shitshow.>>4093980There was rape? I only remember the pon licking the girl while she's been asleep.
Since this is as good a place as any to ask, does anyone have any of the old versions of the original Hat World, before the dev went back in and updated the art to match New Testament?
>>4093104I don't know what's up with people posting those screenshots, I believe the silly non sequitur stuff is the weakest part, the games are at their strongest when they're inflicting unspeakable suffering on robot girls
Dekapari is one of the best games in the series but most people haven't played it for whatever reason. It's about the rape victim in Towelket 2 realizing she was made to suffer and deciding to inflict suffering onto everyone else instead. The atmosphere is great and despite the silly synopsis, it actually plays its premise pretty straight. The philosophical aspects run much deeper here than it does in Towelket 1. Honestly its all the more emotionally devastating when you're dealing with characters that have a bit more depth than a puddle. The dev's improvement over the years cannot be overstated.Here everyone can have it for free lol: https://mega.nz/file/dQhj1DLA#Vfj_cXOF936cbGH54QO8Mq-Rrq5XbBEJKBg6uHKyx1k
>>4094085Yeah, here it is. Version 1.12.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Sv_6jf23fJqGfIeKvSVJ9_PK5UaA5gY0/view?usp=sharing
>>4094085This>>4094465was the wrong file. Here's the right one:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AhoxnGvV1BFWd-b_94KhcmxTPrbuQRDO/view?usp=sharing
>>4094465>>4094516Awesome, thanks. The old sprites are super jank so I get why they were changed, but it's very neat to see the evolution of Enu's style like this.
>>4094420>for whatever reasonLmao, the dev intentionally paylocked it behind a japanese online shop which makes it nearly impossible to buy for third worlders.The game however is really one of the better towelkets, for how silly the premise is it unexpectedly delivers a high rate existential horror. I only wish all the pseudo-convoluted lines with the cult were omitted as they barely add anything.
>>4094085>>4094516Is the old version of Hat World contain something that was cut from New Testament or it's just the art?
>>4078046Some of the best German maker games are:- Unterwegs in Düsterburg (the quintessential German RPG Maker game, and dare I say: RPG Maker game in general.)- Vampires Dawn 1 and 2 (as you've already figured out)- Games by real troll such as:-- Die Reise ins All-- Wolfenhain-- NachbarlichtOut of all these, Wolfenhain is probably the most complete, fun and balanced experience. One of the best games I've had the privilege to play.Its creator real troll is probably one of the best RPG Maker developers period. His writing is excellent and I'm saddened to see it be region locked.
I'm trying to remember the name of a game i played nearly 10 years agoIt was an RPG (probably made in RPGM or Wolf RPG, it def look like it) about an amnesiac knight wearing full armor waking up in a underground prison, i remember the first boss was sci-themed like another armored dude with a plasma rifle or something. After that you visit a castle and then some villages.
>>4095150What language did you play it in?Did battles switch to a separate combat screen, or did you fight directly while walking around?
>>4095079AFAICT no, it was just the art and some minor lore changes.
>>4095208EnglishSeparate, it was turn-based but i don't remember if the view was DQ-like or FF1-like
>>4095764hmm. i've been looking but really couldn't find anything
played the first few hours of Saihate Hospital a few weeks ago, and quite liked what I played.
Why did steam remove the rpgmaker tag anyway? I want to search specifically for rpgmaker titles dammit.
>>4093427Out of curiosity I tried the game myself to see what you were talking about, and I’m sorry anon but you totally missed the point.The ending isn’t supposed to be an actual conclusion to the game, it’s supposed to be something that recontextualizes everything that happens. Basically all of the crazy nonsense that happens in the game goes from meaningless garbage to something that actually makes sense. The ending isn’t a cheap trick, it’s the game telling you to look back at what happened previously and to try and make sense of things.Maybe it only feels obvious to me because I literally spoiled myself on your post, but if you thought the game was just a bunch of random schizo shit and then a “cheap trick” then you weren’t actually paying any attention to the story. The game literally has hints to what the ending is going to be like 5 minutes in and the writing refers to it so much that I’d argue that the ending scene could be removed entirely and you could figure it out through sheer inference.TL;DR: The ending is good. You just took everything way too literally and at face value
>>4093427I'm pretty sure the game is a manifestation of how the author feels about living with mental illness.Warawau has a lot of money, but it doesn't really matter since she has Pucchi preventing her from enjoying it. The Laughing World is a twisted version of her reality, and inside of it she finds herself in situations she can't see herself doing like making friends and getting married. The way I interpreted the ending was the Laughing World punishing her for believing she could ever escape her situatuion. Much like how a person can fall back into their old habits even after getting better for awhile. There's a message from the author at the end of the game IIRC that says something along the lines of "I cannot make games anymore, this might be the last one" but I don't seem to have a screenshot of it, so take that with a grain of salt.
>>4098222You’re sort of right about some parts, like the game being about things Warawau wants, and the Laughing World being a reflection of the normal world, but you got a bunch of stuff mixed up.The game is probably not about the Dev’s personal experiences with mental illnesses, nor does that message you’re talking about ever appear in the game.Warawau almost certainly isn’t rich because the mansion is part of the Laughing World, and the Laughing World isn’t an entity that’s punishing her but instead it’s her ability to keep herself sane breaking away overtime due to her physical (not mental) illness. Everything that happens in the game is a result of what happened between her young childhood to the ending of the game, and pretty much every aspect of the Laughing World is a mix of Warawau’s desires/imagination and what Pucchi did to her over the years, which is what the game is trying to subtly tell you about. The fate of Warawau’s future isn’t told to you but the game actually seems to sort of lean towards something hopefully.
>>4098241>The game is probably not about the Dev’s personal experiences with mental illnesses, nor does that message you’re talking about ever appear in the game.I swear something like that appeared at the end of the english version, or something along those lines did. Maybe it was from Warawau's perspective and I misinterpreted it. I'll replay the game and show what I mean later. It's definitely not 1:1 with struggling with mental illness, but there are enough similarities to make me raise an eyebrow given the context of the dev allegedly having schizophrenia.>>4098241>Laughing World isn’t an entity that’s punishing her but instead it’s her ability to keep herself saneThe Chrysalis Maiden and Orchuma shit came across that way. The fact that Nyanyamo is playable towards the end makes me think the whole thing was a demonic entity fucking with Warawau. If the game was entirely from her perspective, I'd see your point. But Nyanyamo falling off at the end there makes me think the whole thing was a curse put upon Warawau, metaphorical of her condition rather than it just being entirely in her head.
>>4098206>I’d argue that the ending scene could be removed entirely and you could figure it out through sheer inference.It'd make for good theorybait. I found the game hinted enough that the only real question before the reveal was what illness it was.
>>4086775You still can find cute girls in westerner games but it's exclusively indieslop now. Probably going to end up happening for japs too, with the growing BlackRock influence and stuff like that.
>>4096361Yeah i'm gonna have to live with this tiny-ass unknown game in the back of my mind for the rest of my life
>>4098241The message was "Regarding the stories I produce... My rusting body has become strange and such a thing is no longer possible. My thoughts, too, have become clouded."You could take this at face value of only Warawau saying this, but given the context of how Kanao has treated his work in the past, and with Laughing Warawau's release being after the whole thing with Towelket 5, Fury, and Towelket 5 (again), it makes the game seem parallel to the author's struggles. This is the same guy who's ended multiple games with "This sucked." and has posted about hearing voices. It's pretty easy to connect that quote to Kanao, especially since it's at the end of the game.
>>4098222While I don't really subscribe to this theory myself, I have always wondered if some of the wilder imagery in that game was based on the creator's own experiences. Specifically the overlays and little gross creatures constantly sprinting across the screen in certain areas. Perhaps it just meant to invoke a feeling of disgust and disorientation but from what little I know about visual schizophrenic hallucinations, stuff like that is much more accurate to the average hallucination than demons telling you to kill your entire family or whatever
Is there a Towelketbro here who has Wanwan and Unreasonable Camp?Those games aren't uploaded anywhere online.

>>4100049Looks like sovlkino.
Next game when?
>>4094420>rape victim in Towelket 2Lol she's more than just rape victim in 2, she's basically the dev's teddy bear for venting. She's being raped/killed/mutated /cloned/cucked in almost every entry. In this regard Dekapari feels more like a cursed homage to Madoka, where she got tired to suffer for everyone's sins and decided to make everyone suffer instead.
>>4102565>t. guy who has only ever seen Madoka
Any MarikinOnline4 bros here? Game has a sizeable JP fanbase but there's barely any discussion or even a translation here.
>>4102571You are welcome to name other mahou shoujo with this kind of ending, bro. Or you know what? Not even mahou shoujo but any other genre.
>>4102803Madoka is a Jesus reference, are you going to tell me that the Bible was written by Madoka fans?
>>4102565I know but if I were to list every single relevant instance of her character throughout the series absolutely fucking no one would try out this game lol
>>4102818>source: my ass
Any 'maker games in srpg genre?
>>4102565I guess that explains the bear ears.
>>4103204I always thought they were tiddies
>>4103333>>4103204actually it's her not-vampire form
>>4102803The ending, and the entire anime, is overrated garbage anyway.I have more respect for Pierrot slop like Creamy Mami or Persia than I do for Madoka. Earnestness trumps deconstruction and subversion every single time. You'll understand someday once you're out of your Coldsteel the Hedgehog phase of life.
>>4105391Once you're out of your contrarian phase you'll understand that just because something is popular does not mean it is bad.The best "deconstructions" are actually very earnest in their love of the genre by the way.
>>4103192World Piece & Peace
>>4103192SRW-likes barely qualify as SRPGs on the best of days, but sure.
>>4105391Madoka isn't a deconstruction lmao, it's a straightforward character drama, the goal of the show was never to make a statement about the genre. Madoka is a show that takes itself and its characters emotions very seriously and that's what makes it good.
>>4105763>Madoka isn't a deconstruction lmaot.retard who has only seen one anime in his entire life, Puella Magi Madoka Magica.
>>4105778Now the funny thing is that it's always the people who've barely gone past the surface who call Madoka a deconstruction. In truth, it has more in common with the writer's favorite season of Kamen Rider than anything but you probably don't even know what tokusatsu means.
>>4105791This kind of thread derailment is exactly why Towelsewage doesn't need to be discussed here. Fuck off to >>>/a/ if you want to discuss anime.
>>4105762I know we all love dropping vague bait images in these threads, but I'll take the bait anyway:What game is this?
>>4105797And what contributions have you made to the thread other than shitting yourself over towelket like you do with every other rpgmaker game that doesn't meet your retarded standards? Are you going to piss yourself over someone posting a dlsite game next because it's "coomer sludge"?
>>4105719God I want to play this game so bad...
>>4105719>>4105762>jap-only game and vague screenshot of some lost media-level obscure unfindable game. Not sure why i even bothered asking.

>>4105975Was you worship Japan for soo long that your eyes mystically turned slanted, imitating eyes of the people of your idolized nation, but with the aftermath of giving you some kind of visionary disturbance? Otherwise i'm not sure how you manage to overlook the fact i called only one game to be unfindable there, which clearly wasn't your one.

>>4105975>"srpg">look inside>it's just hours and hours of boring, poorly-written Japanese text with a few minutes of mediocre srpg gameplay peppered in betweenInto the fucking trash can it goes.

>>4106883Judging by>poorly written>minutes>srpghe obviously didn't
>>4106601I'm too retarded to play something actually strategic.
Just finished Towelket 2Uhh, so... is the rest of the series also a total misery porn like this one?Towelket 3 was a bit weird, but a pretty standard JRPG, i guess Towelket 2 was a subversion of that...?Also Omocat, is a total hack, legit copied the whole Omori Blackspace sequence from this game lmfao
>>4110291It's a half-and-half sort of ordeal.
oneshot is also cool
Can you tell what these tiles, drawn by a retard, are, with zero hints?

>>4111961>game sucks so bad that he includes a fucking let's play linklmao
>>4111979or maybe not everybody has time to play a 20-40h RPG, anon.
>>4112049If you don't have the time to play a game, you don't deserve to be part of the discussion about it.
>>4112101aight then >>4111979 isn't part of the discussion either~ please discard.
>>4110291The tone varies a lot. Some games are on the darker side while others are much more light hearted. I'd suggest playing Towelket 1 as well and see how you feel about that.
>>4110291Towelket 2 and Fury are the only misery porn in the series. Towelket 1 and Nekoashi are the most emotional rollercoaster ones (in sane way), I'd say
>>4110291>>4112967Don’t forget the one with the yandere girl that spends most of the game killing small animals and all that other stuff.
>>4113170Towelket 6 never existed
>>4110291I would say no. Some games hit hard, but it really depends on the entry.I'd say you should play towelket 1, it's nowhere near as bad as towelket 2, although the philosophical themes it touches upon do graze on the concept of existential horror when you think 2 seconds about the story.Feel free to skip towelket 6 because it's really underbaked. The author was going through a mental breakdown and it barely makes sense.Towelket 4 is so-so, it has more gameplay than the other games (open world and more focus on the RPG elements, but don't expect anything crazy). The story is kind of bittersweet, but nowhere on the level of towelket 2.Fury is a huge shitpost, it's closer in style to towelket 2, but a lot more raw. It's pretty much a big "fuck you" from the author.Towelket 5 is another shitpost, but a light-hearted one. I also think you should skip this on if you're not feeling the humor.Nekoashi Otome is definitely more light-hearted story, but it does have it's moments where it punches you in the gut when you least expect it. There's a considerable improvement in the characterization of its actors and also a step-up in the narrative / storytelling.Laughing Warawau gets a lot more cryptic, but it's very rich if you like games that require you to analyze the small details to fully understand the story (think of something like silent hill, where there's a lot of symbolism that maybe you don't understand at first but you eventually figure out what was really happening all along was spelled right from the start). The ending can hit like a rock, but the character interactions are very fun, so I'd say it's also bittersweet.Fishing for the moon leans more on the romantic side, lots of characters that you can date and stuff. That being said, it's not really good as a dating sim; a lot of the routes repeat the same info, and there isn't much variation with the events. I don't think this game is meant to make you feel sad, even if some bad things happen.
>>4113694(cont.)Yorumorukimiri is basically a visual novel with rpg battles sprinkled here and there. It has some very solid moments. I don't think I could seriously qualify this game as "sad" even though the events it portraits can be quite brutal, but it does have plenty of time to explore the characters and the events that led them to where they are.Dekapari is weird, It feels very nostalgic, and honestly it probably has some my favorite character interactions in the whole series, but it also is very difficult to understand. I think it basically plays with a lot of metanarrative elements, playing with the themes and things that we see in towelket 2 and towelket 1, but giving it a new twist and essentially making PPU get her revenge at this universe for fucking her over and over again in every other entry. It also has a pretty grim portrayal of life on the same levels of existential horror as towelket 1.The doggie game is super light hearted, almost boringly so. The remaining games are kind of shit except for light magic 2. I can't recommend playing them unless you're already interested in experiencing all the games in the series.
>in Towelket 1 the game marks the objects that you can interact with, except for one that is required to progress to chapter 7What was the creator thinking? If there wasn't a video online I would have never figured that out.
>>4113833I had to look that up too. Absolute bullshit.
>>4113694>>4113698thanks for the analysis, anon>>4113833that part almost filtered me too. i missed the hint system from towelket 2
>>4113833Out of curiosity was it this video? I couldn't help but laugh seeing that there was a timestamp specifically made for that moment in all caps.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzXJoBaNr1Y
>>4113953It was another video, but yeah, the worst part about that screw is that you see multiple of them throughout the area but only that one you can interact with.

So, how's this RPG Maker thread different from the other one?
>>4115704this one is about rpgmakerthe other one is a containment thread for a gay indian "game" "dev"
>>4113833out fucking skilled
>>4115704The other one is a development thread for people who make games. This one is for wannabe cannibal validators, who want to dunk people over a twitch stream chat and treat game jams as content farms.
>>4115704This is the Towelket general.The other thread is the blog of some dude who got exiled from various other RPG Maker forums.
>>4115704This one is about gamesThe other one is about making games.
I loved the first Towelket games where story scenes were only several minutes long and most of the plot you learned from the optional events. The recent games feel like fuckhuge infodumps upon infodumps which doesn't fit the style at all.
>>4116622You must be playing different games from me because exactly what parts of the story from TK3-TK1 were optional?
Now this is good taste in parties.
>>4069919All of these seen to be made by the most mentally ill ppl imaginable. Why are JRPGs like this?
Here’s a mostly underrated and unknown game I think ya’ll would likeGobble Fantasy 2003 (it’s only a demo right now but it really shows a lot of promise)https://dogs-understand.itch.io/gobble-fantasy-2003
>>4122390>mostly underrated and unknown>look inside>100+ comments spanning over a year>page layout looks specifically like it was made to be marketable>Twitter/X account has over 6000 followersSo yeah, you're either a marketer yourself, or you're the dev. Buy a motherfucking ad, it's apparent you don't lack the wherewithal.
>>4122408yeah you’re right i’m a marketer lola marketer who sadly won’t get paid for marketing the game
>>4122612i should’ve worded it differently which is pretty much my fault and the fact it has a successful kickstarter is proof enough it’s not unknown and underrated however i am not lying when i say it has promise
>>4122390Oh that game I saw a playthrough of it once on YouTube and I thought it looked cool
anyone has a crack for MZ 1.10 ?
>>4069919I'm a bit of a newfriend when it comes to rpgm games, so i'm looking for some recommendations, i'm looking for something in fantasy, with good world building and exploration of said world and adventure.

I tried to english patch hat world and its not working at all!
>>4126551You need Locale Emulator.I still needed it even with my system locale already being in Japanese.
>>4126556Thanks gonna try it
>>4126587Did it work?
>>4126592I think I am a i bit of a dummy so it didnt
>>4091159Altered?
>>4126551Did something change? I thought the download was prepatched.
>>4091159Sorry no one wants to download chinese miners
>>4126551Elaborate what "not working at all" means here.
Hypothetically speaking if you were to advertise your rpg maker game on this thread without making it sound to “advertisey” would it still be considered a crime on here?(Like would a simple “play my game” post be illegal?)
>>4127506It will ensure that I leave a negative review.
>>4127700If the post was the person pretending they didn’t create the game would your review change or not at all
>>4127506How will anyone know it's "your" game?
>>4127506I will review bomb it at all costs.
Alright well in that case let’s post very obscure rpg maker games from any site and let’s see which anon is secretly advertising so we can review bomb it
>>4128196guess i’ll start thenhttps://spiderzone.itch.io/i-got-turned-into-a-girl
Does weapon level (the one you need to upgrade them, 鍛錬度) level in hatworld just not rise with dual wield gems? Because it sure looks like it but doesn't seem to be mentioned even on atwiki so maybe I'm doing something else wrong?>>4126556For me it was the opposite, JP version though. I swear even the chink fork of LE never actually works when I need it, always end up having to hard change locale and/or even the entire OS display language to play niche shit.

>>4128233>Does weapon level...I'm rather sure it does.
>>4129605I really should have tested out a one hand weapon/gem before asking, but yeah it doesn't seem to have changed anything. Maybe it's a weapon rank vs enemy rank issue or something like that, because I tried out a rank 1 gun, and it did level a bit, but the rank 11 akimbo I stole from kelly and put on tsubasa have been sitting at zero for 18 mastery levels by now.
>>4129722*tsubame
>>4129722>the rank 11 akimboOh, those don't level at all. Not sure why, but it's probably to balance out how strong they are and how easy it is to get them compared to other rank 11 weapons. (Guns in general are also the weapon category with the worst leveling.)
>>4129722Higher rank weapons do level but it's incredibly slow, You're supposed to use the Fatima OoPArt to raise their rank instead.
