☆ Choices ☆ Opinions ☆ Decisions ☆


Hi GameJolt

After a very long MIA, I have finally found my way back here. Just something very brief I wish to ask you guys.

I had been testing the latest RPG Maker engine which was released just not long ago, RPG Maker MV. I was planning to remake Sword Art Online - Oblivion Wings on RPG Maker MV, but it proved almost impossible since it is still missing many functions that were present in VX Ace. I will make a little comparison below, and ask 2 questions after that. Do read and let me know your opinions, so I can make my decision as to do what is best for all of you!


PROs of MV:

  • Capable of porting the games made to mobile platforms like the Android and iOS, which allows players to play the game on the go.

  • Has touch screen functions and allows for you to move to a position you desire with just a single tap.

  • Has several new functions, such as in-built side view battle system (Can be switched between front view and side view with just a click) and the ability to switch resolution easily.

PROs of VX Ace:

  • Since MV is still really new, VX Ace has obviously many more available resources and scripts to use. Oblivion Wings had many custom scripts which made my game look really very solid.

  • VX Ace allows players to download the RTP Package seperately. Not really sure if it is a pro, but it affects people with the varying download speeds. Due to slow download speeds, some people might have trouble downloading a single huge file. MV now has the RTP Package bundled together with the game itself and it will make the game itself quite big in size.


So it all comes down to these questions:
Should I continue to develop Sword Art Online - Oblivion Wings on VX Ace?
Or should I begin the project, Sword Art Online - Lost World, which I had already planned from the start to be Oblivion Wings’ sequel, on the RPG Maker MV?
Or do you guys have anything better in mind? Do let me know!

If you read the whole message and decide to leave me with a reply, I’d really appreciate it as it will really help me in making this tough decision, since it affects you guys the most. Thank you and have a nice day!

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.

Out of boredom and curiosity, I coded Sailor Jupiter's Argentine Backbreaker.
