RUKIRI'S PROFILE

I'm buying it to either praise it or be blunt about how bad it is at launch.
I'll probably be doing everything in javascript, and learning cocos2d-x.

But, does anyone want to team up for a RPG kit?

as you know,there are many game engines that offer you visual programming like construct2,gms2,clickteamfusion2.5 & others,but they all feel like you are writing code. this is going to be totally different in pixel game maker mv. anyone will be able to program their games with ease with the new programming system by just taking a quick look at it!.

i hate to break it to you but every iteration of visual scripting is going to "feel like writing code" (even Scratch programming) and you can't even explain why it won't be the case this time. if you're willing to put up with crazy spider web messes then you can probably handle an IDE interface. idk man people are way too hopeful this, i'm worried someone here put their life savings in kadokawa stock or something...

You know the visual script is optional right? But, I'd get lost if I was doing anything complex as well... I can only hope one day they'll listen and C# will be used as the next scripting language as c# code is pretty and easy to read. Javascript has always remained a mess imho..

The witch demo seemed to show off a state machine being used, so maybe this won't be a bad engine to use? It's got nothing on Godot, and that 10 minute demo honestly showed us nothing as it was pretty blurry and I couldn't make much out. The UI isn't special or modern, it looks like it would fit in the 2006-2012 era of apps.

August makes no sense since that would leave a month a few weeks for a summer release... I'm already nervous as hell with how limited the nodes appear to be...

At the end of the day I can just straight up code in javascript if I wanted to.

I paid $71.99 but I think that was discounted, even the day of wasn't near $100.
It's always been around $79 for the longest time. RPG Maker MV is specialized niche game development software so obviously niche software costs more, Pixel Game Maker MV is not niche software at all it's generalized software like Godot, Unity, Game Maker, Construct, etc.

They won't confirm a notebox/script box (using code vs visual code) or that some nodes can have algorithms. They also won't confirm math functions so it's not as diverse as Construct 3s event sheets(I can actually write custom algorithms!)



I was told it will have a similar feel to AGM/IGM and then I was like, okay this engines dead before it's even released...

Thank god users can basically let them know what they think before actual launch, I don't expect a smooth launch but the real question is will they actually listen? Me and my friends in Japan are going with no...

Edit:

Officially confirmed Cocos2d-x will be used!

Edit 2:

More info is supposed to be coming in a few days :)

They announced price in the steam discussions, around $99 USD so basically $100.
