RMN Album Vol.1 - Befuddling Tracks
It's more of a fun, creative topic than a serious project. Though, if someone would actually want use these lyrics for real songs, I would be the last person to say "no".
Thanks for adding yours to the list, Liberty!

RMN Album Vol.1 - Befuddling Tracks
There have been some occasions on the site where people rewrote the lyrics of well-known songs and changed them into something RMN-related. (Recent examples are Liberty's I Need A Misao or Girls Just Wanna Mak Gam, but I know I've seen more.) I thought it would be funny if we collected all these and added some new ones to create our own RMN "Album".
There are only a few rules for adding songs:
- The rewritten lyrics must have something to do with game making and/or RMN.
- The songs used have to be widely known. It's only funny if people are likely to recognize the original and see what you did with the lyrics. Indicate the original song's name and artist to make it easier to recognize.
- If a song is very long or repetitive, or if you struggle to write new lyrics for a certain part, it's okay to leave a part out. This is supposed to be fun, not a pain in the butt.
Now, go forth and mak songs!
I'll start by adding my own attempt:
Kentona (MC Hammer: Can't Touch This)
Edit: RMN Album Vol.1 contains the following tracks so far:
1. NeverSilent - Intro (Pokémon Theme Song (original))
2. Liberty - Misao (Bonnie Tyler - Hero)

4. NeverSilent - Kentona (MC Hammer - Can't Touch This)

How do you feel about profanity in RPG Maker games?
It's true that the use of language can convey a lot about the personality of game characters, and swearing is one possible way of showing how they think. You all explained this well.
However, there's another aspect to this question: The player's viewpoint. The reason we even bother to talk about this is because profanity is what it is, and some/many people can feel offended by it. Now, I won't pretend I never use coarse language or something. But a noticeable "swearing is cool" attitude in a game can annoy players, especially if it seems overused. It is perfectly possible to create a game (even in a modern setting) where no swear words are used, and it won't necessarily be awkward. After all, when we write the lines for characters, we're not going for naturalistic or hyper-realistic dialogue. In reality, people make mistakes or utter incomplete sentences. In games these things are usually omitted, because it would be disturbing for the player. The same goes for profanity: If there is no good (in-game) reason to use it, then why use it?
What I'm trying to say is that profanity, when used at the right moment, can be of great effect for immersion, but if it's overused or used in a tasteless way, it can potentially cost you players.

GIRLS JUST WANNA MAK GAM.
Let's meet the cast!
Ah, cool. So the lodite is definitely in the team now. Do you have a plan already on which characters will be seen in the demo?
World Remade
It's here?! Awesome! Subscribing right now. I'm very curious to see how "Project Kobold" is going to turn out. Good luck with this project.
What are you thinking about right now?
author=Gourd_Clae
@NeverSilent I wouldn't mind partnering up with you. Maybe not right now, but after I finish the game I'm currently working on. I'd feel even worse about taking forever to finish it if I took on another game before I was done.
Awesome! And I totally understand and actually think it's a good thing that you feel obliged to finish Razed Are the Powerful first. It's better not to rush into things. (Maybe I should work a bit harder on finishing my own current project, too...)
Also, I agree XP's mapping is very good, but in many other aspects, it is indeed a step backwards from VX Ace.

One type of event we probably haven't tried is one where you make the worst game imaginable, but that would be kind of a bad idea, since I'd beat all of you so easily.
Would this be funny? Sure it would. But let's be honest: Aren't there enough terrible games already? Shouldn't we rather use our time and energy to, you know, make some good ones?
Is it bad to add tons of custom stuff?
author=RyaReisenderauthor=NeverSilentBut isn't that basically the same except that all your scores are 1 star higher than mine?
You have your points there, Rya, and I can understand them even if I strongly disagree. I, for once, would never lower a game's review score for using the RTP, but I would give games with custom assets a bonus to the score. From my perspective, this sounds fairer, although you have your good reasons to think differently, too.
I'm rather strict with scoring, because for me 5/5 means that the game is perfect and there is not a single possible change that would have made it better. But when it uses RTP, there is a change to make it better: Not use RTP. So I just can't consider it 100% perfect.
Not necessarily, but this is probably where different preferences and priorities come into play. To me, gameplay, story (if existent), innovation and functionality are what matters most in a game. There are many ways to ensure their quality, but not all of these ways are mandatory.
But more importantly, I don't think there is such a thing as a "perfect" game. Every game has its flaws and imperfections. In my opinion, a game deserves a 5-star rating if its positive aspects are so numerous and strong that I feel the less positive aspects become insignificant in comparison and do not noticeably influence my playing experience. So, if the other aspects are strong enough, I think an RTP game can very well deserve 5 stars (although custom assets definitely help).
@McBick:
I agree stuff like custom graphics or mechanics can greatly enhance your game and help you define a personal, recognizable style. But if you want people to see you're not making a generic RPG Maker game, the most important thing to consider is: Don't make a generic RPG Maker game. If the premise of your game is interesting enough, people will recognize it. But a generic game "dressed up" with fancy assets is still a generic game. (I'm not accusing you of doing so, I'm just throwing in my thoughts.)
About everything else: What halibabica said.
What are you thinking about right now?
Sorry, seiromem. That was indeed rude.
And that sounds like a funny idea for an event, although I suspect the results' quality would vary a lot depending on which people have to work together...

author=Gourd_Claeauthor=NeverSilentI'm actually decent at making art! By our powers combined, we are Captain Gam Mak~<3author=Gourd_ClaeGourd, we should totally join forces. I find mapping pretty tedious, but eventing is the part of game making I enjoy most - and it's also the one thing I like to think I'm good at.
I love mapping~ I think the eventing is what gets me. I have the skills to do it, I just never WANT to do it.
I wish the same were true for scripting and art...
Wait, are you just joking or are you serious about this? 'Cause I would definitely like to be part of a team effort.
