[RM2K3] [RMXP] [RMMV] What is the best way to make an RPG game by yourself?

RPGs tend to be ambitious in scope. Time is the key thing. Plan out your narrative (even dungeon crawler heavy adventures tend to have some flavor text to go with them) plan your encounters (are they traditional turn based with a first person perspective like the Dragon Quest series? Are they real time third person and zelda-esque where you fight the enemies on the map?).

I'd recommend starting with a simpler concept. Treat your first build of a game like a tech demo. Keep it short starting off (think something that lasts up to around 2-5 hours, which can still translate to a lot of time.)

TLDR: Plan out stuff. Start off simple and tinker with the engine. See what you like. See what you don't. Decide from there.

Favorite Books/Series

I remember reading Redwall when I was kid. I'll have to revisit the series, but I thought it was pretty solid. I recall the food description the mice people ate being appetizing.

The Harry Potter series is one I enjoy even as an adult. I'm currently reading the Sword Art Online Light Novels. Those are pretty well written.

Censorship and Security Paradoxes

10 fucking hours of THAT is not "something humorous" it's "a Goddamn war crime".

Seriously, 10 hour remixes of Alex Jones' ravings about gay amphibians is the kind of thing we should be blasting at ridiculous volumes wherever we're fighting ISIL in the Middle East. That is straight up psychological warfare. 10 seconds of it? Funny. 10 minutes of it? Starting to get old. 10 HOURS of it...Clockwork Orange.


I would never watch it for 10 hours. It's funny for like maybe the first two loops or so and then it becomes obnoxious. I feel sorry for anyone that watches much of anything for a whole 10 hours.

I still think it was because when Jones got sued, those platforms suddenly saw a potential liability and they broomed him to cover their asses. I mean, there are laws that say these platforms are not responsible for what he says, but lawyers have said those are open to interpretation, and if there's reason to believe they knew he was violating their terms of service (which he definitely was), then they may not have had that protection.


Pianotm, you may be correct on that too. The only thing I question, and I'm probably overthinking it on this matter, is the fact this domino effect occurred within a 24 hour period.

But what the hell, it's not like these companies don't communicate with one another. Perhaps the legal department with each social media entity had communicated prior and decided this needed to be a solitary move, for the very purpose of eliminating said liability? I don't know and am not going to pretend I do. The whole situation is a curious one.

Censorship and Security Paradoxes

Something humorous, just because it's Alex Jones.



As far as the debate going on here, it is kinda curious that he gets deplatformed within a 24 hour period on most social media platforms, even though he's been tolerated on these same platforms for several years. The official reason, at least according to this Chicago Tribune article, he was alleged to have published content glorifying violence and using dehumanizing language to describe Muslims, immigrants, and transgender people.

Personally, I find the whole debacle amusing. Social media, in general, has a bizarre manner of identifying and flagging hate speech. I mean, a lot of these platforms allow shit like this to have a legitimate voice. And there are countless ]more examples of double standards where hate speech is allowed to thrive on these platforms. So I don't know, holding Jones's feet to the fire seems to be a hollow gesture when many of these sites are not willing to apply the same standard to many other groups who do the same type of thing he does.

As a matter of fact, it sends signals to some that it is okay to engage in vitriolic speech, provided you identify with what these platforms deem to be the correct political branding.

Super Dr. Toadly World

So how are you wanting us to submit updates to our levels?

Super Dr. Toadly World

So I'm going to go ahead and take away my previous offer. Instead of offering my unreleased levels, I went ahead and made a new one called Munitions Depot. That'll be my last contribution, given my time issues in real life.

Super Dr. Toadly World

I saw the event and decided to submit a level that I had made a long time ago. All I did was tweak it to fit the event. Mechanized Hatred. It's a bastard of a level too.

I may submit more. My main problem is time, given I don't time for much of anything these days. I know there is a 3 level limit. I have other levels on the back burner I can submit if you'd like if you're in desperate need of additional levels. Just know they don't all have a factory theme.

Also, I found an old level I did for you. Took less than 10 minutes to patch it for this project.

Only other thing I'll post is all my unreleased stuff (well, technically not all of it. I have another computer with more levels on it, but it's in storage somewhere). If you see a level you like in the pack, let me know, and I can edit it to fit this project's guidelines.

Additional Note: Went back and replayed my levels. Did not realize how varied the NPC behavior was on the toads. Rebalanced accordingly.
