hey do you remember when as a angry very young adult i wrote that aggressively passive-aggressive guide to rm2k/3 balancing. i do

(spoiler: this is a very long thread on niche rm2k/3 damage formulas.)

if rm2k supported mid battle equipment changing i'd have subjected you to at least 7 of these guys by now

it's been a big year for rm2k/3 font in games that aren't made in rm2k/3

so i am loving going back to Ace. but, uh, why is the "pick a bgm to listen to as you work" menu so much smaller than the "pick a bgm for your title screen" menu !?

also bring back the player button on the rm2k/3 database lol

I'm hoping to spend at least 50% of my time next year in RM2k

Still reeling from when RPG Advocate called my RM2K game 'newbie crap' on the Don Miguel RM2K forum in 2000 or 2001.

He was right though, it was objectively terrible and just used the rtp graphics and everything.

I should have kept working on my Star Trek TNG rpg after that though.

I learned I could make video games thanks to @zabu-team-don.bsky.social's translation of RM2K, which was a foundational domino on my life's path
Remember when people used to speak of RPG Maker derisively? It's responsible for so many foundational works now. Without it, no Yume Nikki. No Lisa. No To The Moon or Oneshot.

And now we're getting stuff like Fear & Hunger, Omori, Look Outside. All because one Russian pirate with a Spanish handle.

The story of how RPGMaker first became available to English-speaking audiences is a little strange.

16x24 sprites always were my favourite. I blame my RM2K days...

This feels like a game that would've been popular in the early days of GamingW.

In the coming demo, this will be the area of Cratoria to explore. The county of Moolanta. A thriving community of suburb towns, industry, beach front shopping and lake side relaxing. Never mind the Glark issue... #rm2k #pixelart #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #rpgmaker #gamemap

You wouldn't believe all the crazy shit I've seen done over the ages with just the RM2k. Simulated 3d views, the smoothest platformer engine you've ever seen, a really good Tetris....
"But the engine is so limited" someone managed to make a Picross game in rpgmaker without writing a single line of code (rpgmaker.net/games/11/). You think it's limited because you never tried using it seriously

my unfinished teen RM2K RPG was a standard fantasy-land-starts-in-peril RPG but the first town had a movie theater and you could pay to watch an inuyasha FMV of Break Stuff

Dear god will I be glad to go back to RM2k after this. Making battles with forced ATB is the worst.
