Same here, it makes me wonder just how many indie games were made with RPG maker. On Itch.io they have over 10,000 games listed under "Top games made with RPG maker". I'm sure there's more than that though since the engine is old.Demonskeith wrote: Fri Jul 10, 2026 6:25 am Kind of surprised they keep releasing more RPG maker games.
Oof, while that is good at the same time I imagine a lot of those go unplayed by people.Ravenfreak wrote: Fri Jul 10, 2026 11:40 pmSame here, it makes me wonder just how many indie games were made with RPG maker.

It’s pretty popular for amateur game developers. The problem is that because it’s so easy to make a basic bitch game with it, it gives the software a bad rep. People LOATH RPG Maker games.Demonskeith wrote: Fri Jul 10, 2026 6:25 am Kind of surprised they keep releasing more RPG maker games.

Yeah that's the problem with these easy tools, people can make slop and thus many people don't want to play any game made with it lol. I suppose the same thing can be said for games made entirely with AI.Grungie wrote: Mon Jul 13, 2026 3:38 amIt’s pretty popular for amateur game developers.
