Making 3D games is too complex? RPG Paper Maker will simplify your work!

RPG Paper Maker is a game making engine, free for non commercial use, allowing you to create a 3D universe with many 2D sprites and even 3D objects using a simple interface for all available platforms: Windows, Linux, and MacOS.

RPG Paper Maker gives you a way to create RPGs in a full 3D world as simply as it is in 2D! RPG Paper Maker also comes packed with cool retro inspired graphic assets for you to use in your own projects.



Adapted for several type of games

The engine is mainly tailored for J-RPGs, but you can create almost any type of game with it such as Action RPGs, Tactical RPGs, etc.



Designed for beginners...

Our philosophy is simple: being able to create a 3D video game without any knowledge in:

  • programming
  • 3D modeling


The user friendly interface lets you build your game without worrying about complex algorithms!



... and for experienced users!

If you have any knowledge in programming and/or modeling, we've got you covered. You will be able to:

  • Create or modify JavaScript plugins
  • Import your own 3D models in .obj format


Combining your knowledge with RPG Paper Maker can makes your games even more special!



Publish and share your games for free...

As long as you don't have any profit with your games, you can use RPG Paper Maker freely! So if you only want to create games for fun and share it to a community, don't be afraid, you will be able to do it for free!

You can contribute to the project on GitHub here: https://github.com/Wano-k/RPG-Paper-Maker.



... and commercialize your games with some fees!

Any commercial game made with RPG Paper Maker will require a license to be sold for one person in a team with unlimited games. The actual price is $79.99, check out more information here: http://rpg-paper-maker.com/index.php/downloads.

Amazing stuff! When able, I'd love to see more of the editing interface; I'm curious to see how similar the database stats and what-not are to RPG Maker.

Either way, love how the graphics in the sample stuff look, and this sounds like an amazing concept. =D
This looks awesome! Think of the possibilities! Subscribed and eager for more. :)

Maybe I should wait to make my new super secret project in this engine instead of RM2K3. This looks so epic.
wow! This is fantastic! Can't wait for it's release.
Thanks ! :3

will there be key input processing? Could someone make a legend of zelda like game in this engine?


Yep, you can assign your key inputs for the game, and even create your own commands (it only allows you to use it on your event commands). For Zelda, yep it could be, but for now I don't plan to code it. You'll have to fiddle with scripts and events, such as RPG Maker.

I though I had subscribed to this project until I realized that there had been some updates without me being informed do not fear the issue has been rectified. I can not wait for the release of this you can be sure you will have at least one buyer.

Oh okay. I didn't thought it was so disturbing ! I will start this on steam first of all because I think that it's a nice way to release the engine. I will try to make something online at the come out too.


If you need an eCommerce solution to distribute the software online independently, let me know. That's my specialty. I'd love to help out with this amazing project.

Edit : Ahah nice, carry on by MP.

9999x9999, and not depending to the tile size. I want to dodge limits as much as possible, but be carefull anyway.


Whoa. That is one BIG open world I could make. It's like Christmas morning. :D Awesome.

And I second "screw Steam". Hate Steam. We should be able to buy this direct, online, without the DRM hell that Steam is.
Hi Xexu, I'm glad to see your interest for my project !

About characters, you will be able to choose your frame numbers when you are choosing each graphic look (you can also choose a default value in options). For 8 directions, it will be possible too, I will make an option too but this is not implemented yet.

Is just a suggestion, we really appreciate that you are willing to release your engine, definitily you should publish in a digital platform such steam in order to gain some back up and support from the users and potential partners :)


Yep, I plan to publish this on greenlight soon, don't worry.

Thank you for your support, and I hope my engine will satisfy your team !



Screw steam I wanna buy this from a local store lol


Ahah maybe if it's a success. :D

is there a limit to map size

Also, question, is there a limit to map size? And how big is it?(I belive rpg maker vx ace's was 500x500)
Hi!
First of all, congratulations for such amazing project!!

I would like to ask you how many frame does the characte support at the moment?
I belong to a development indie group working currently in a project for Rpg Maker XP but we would be really glad to port our work to your engine. Rpg Maker support natively just 4 directions and 4 frames, but thanks to scripts we have created a system for 8 direction and 4-8 frames as it's show up below:


I think that migth be awesome with this view have the possibility to add 8 direction movement + camera rotation, could be nice mode7-3d effect :)

Keep on eye on your project, mucha suerte!

This looks really great there are so many cool things that could be done with this if I had not already drop a hefty amount of time into my RPG Maker Project I would drop it all as soon as this was officially released.

Thank you ! It will be finished, certain thing.

Especially if there'd be regular updates and free new content every now and then.


Yep, no DLC !! D:
I hope there will be a community growing around the engine, I will work for a website/github.


Communities tend to be better when it comes to content. Especially when the project has a lot of supporters.

I seriously hope this gets finished. It'd be one of the BEST RPG Maker tools out there. Especially if there'd be regular updates and free new content every now and then. I'd love to make a 3D-ish modern day RPG.
I am so hype for this~! I really hope that you finish it- I want to throw money at you for this. XD'
