J1.03 released!


With the RPG Maker Game Jam 2025 ending (finally), I've rolled up updates for the game. There isn't much to talk about (as I am focussing on the main one), but there are quite a lot of fit and finish update. I might update the game again, but it's a wrap.

Changelog:

  • Overhauled the compression library, improving launch times and memory usage.

  • Moved the Play button (alongside the save management options) into a "Game" menu.

  • Some UI updates.

  • Slightly re-worked the puzzle so it makes more sense.

  • Re-balanced The Beholder slightly.

  • Adjusted some of the text and scenes.

  • Fixed some passability issues.

Added a simple audio system to the launcher.

A bit of an old but goodie coming back: Quick Load! In an upcoming update, you can jump back to where you left off with a push of a button.

Time for a bit of shenanigans: RPG Maker MV running on top of Tauri! This more future proofed framework means better performace and smaller file sizes. It does require some re-work in the engine, but it could lead to true cross-platform games.

Our pals at @serenityforge have released Doki Doki Literature Club on iOS and Android!

Support them by picking up DDLC avatar frames, backgrounds, and sticker packs in the Game Jolt Shop or on their profile!

Overhauls on the way.

The Game Awards are tonight, but we're more interested in learning what YOUR game of the year is.

Tell us by completing the quest "What's YOUR Game of the Year?"!

Taking the wraps off. For real this time.

It's still pretty early work, but I am working on making the UI more dynamic and sleek. Including faces changing depending on their HP.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Enjoy a nice dish, get a nice buff. What's not to like?
