Esmarna: XP




1 month ago

Esmarna: Portable is now named Esmarna: XP and there are some major news (read the article)


So, I changed the engine behind this project to RPG Maker XP, this is because RPG Maker 2003 was painful to work with for me and I just prefer XP in every way, it will take a few days to bring everything from the old RM2k3 version of the project to the RMXP, and besides that the progress is progressing and everything looks good so far,

about the name change, it's because the "Portable" in the name didn't mean anything at this point and the "XP" just sounds cooler in my opinion

anyway, I will be posting updates on Esmarna on a daily basis probably, so if you are interested feel free to follow my game,

I think that the demo will be released somewhere in early 2026 and I want it to be worth the wait!!!

that's all for today's devlog!!

see ya!!

I decided that I'm switching the engine used in Esmarna: Portable from RPG Maker 2003 to RPG Maker XP, it's due to limitations of the 2003 version, it kinda now makes all the current screenshots outdated now, sorry for that, more updates soon
