Mixed with previously planned features and also user feedback, I've been working on a few features that should be coming fairly soonish.

  • Submission editing. You'll be able to edit all the details for your submissions.
  • Searching and filtering. The game list is showing the first signs of unwieldiness, so this should alleviate that. You'll be able to search for a game by engine, genre, and author.
  • Collections. You'll be able to add games to your own person Wishlist (for games you are anticipating) and games that are your favorite. Your favorite list will be limited to a certain amount, so that you can't say LOL EVERY GAME IS MY FAVORITE. As a developer, you'll be able to see how many people have your game in their collections.

If you guys have any other requests, please let me know.
Personally, I think that the games page is too messy looking. Maybe cut down the size of the titles, reduce the size of the stars... you could fit more games on one page that way. That's just me, though.
Good I need to edit my game title as I've come up with the game's title and don't want it to be Project S0S.
Will games in your collection have an RSS feed or something so that you can easily keep up with changes and updates?
Blame Sei. He put out a call to arms!
Will we eventually be able to exchange our Maker Points for ponies?

Nah. The Makerscore isn't an exchangable currency. Think of it like Gamerscore on XBox Live.

Shadowtext: I don't know about RSS feed, but there'll be some way to keep tabs on them.
Would be cool if you could use Maker Points to buy stuff like changing your screenname or having a personal message.

Nah. The point isn't to get them to spend them. And what do you mean personal message?
It's probably better not to make maker points a currency anyway. Imagine how many unfinished projects, rushed reviews, unnecessary screen shots, and redundant mirror download links that might inspire.

I think DJT is referring to the title tags that mods get. Your 'Frog with Hat' bit, for instance.

Ah. Members SHOULD be able to edit those already. If not, that'll be changed tonight.
Makerscore = MY E-PENIS IS HUUUUUUUUUUUGE
EDIT:

Wait, I see it on a game like this:

http://www.rpgmaker.net/games/29/

Even though most games don't really have anything and makes it look awkward. Perhaps have a "no rating available" label or something for the default because the star thing really threw me off.

I think that the star are a bit confusing. Being big and blue like that, it looks like it's just a part of the layout- and actually a background. I'd expect to see gold star images or something on top of the blue, like all five blue stars and the number of gold stars on top to show the rating.

Unless you already have something like that in place and my game just has 0/5.

Despain, the lowest real rating is a 0.5/5. 0/5 is the default for no rating.
Will people be able to submit resources ala rm2knet.com? Not that I'd particularly like the feature, as that generally just encourages people to be more uncreative in their game making endeavors.

I'm not planning for any resource stuff for the time being. I feel there are plenty of other sites that have them already. If there's enough demand for it, though, I'll put it in.
The problem with a resource section is that people submit stupid crap like "Mario wearing a turban!!" or whatever, that nobody is going to ever use in any game ever. Then, someone has to out-stupid that, so they submit like "THE MEN IN BLACK GUYS" which are just slight RTP edits that don't even look like Tommy Lee Jones or Will Smith, except one is black. Oh, and then there's the inevitable "DEAD RTP PEOPLE" where someone just takes an RTP charaset and scribbles red lines all over them in MS Paint.
I'm going to cancel my Arabian themed Mario Adventure just to spite you, now.
