Rpg Maker Xp!

Rpg Maker Xp!

Not very familiar with that to know how you can share it here.

You need to export it. XP is a bit of a process to do it, but the newer versions have a button for it that automatically puts everything you need in a single folder that you can compress and upload.

Follow this tutorial. Parts 2, 3 and 6 are the specifically direct steps for it. I would pick the step where it says to just add it to a Zip folder.

Then just upload it to Google Drive, Mega, OneDrive, whatever and post the link. If you create an IndieDB account you can also upload it there.

Find the folder it extracted to -> Right click on the folder -> Send to Compressed (zipped folder)

Then upload that to somewhere like Google Drive/Mega/One Drive.

Done you should now be able to Download it!
The game menus could still be German maybe im not sure how that works but all Text is English!

 

[Giga Hertz]

Cool, looks like you got the hang of some of the basics (switches, autoruns, etc.). The plot sounds like it has potential too. The game menus are in German, and I don't know how where that gets changed - something you can Google later.

If you're serious about working on it, I recommend just getting as much of it done as you can and then tidying it up later (map designs, spelling, etc.). Just try to be mindful of releases and compatibilities between save versions (which should be fine if people don't save in a spot where you then put something you can't walk through). Generally you want at least 30 minutes of gameplay for an initial release so people can get invested in the story and decide if they want to be in it for more. But if you're going to release demos and betas, try to make sure you've cleaned it up a bit in terms of spelling and plot. You can change all this stuff later, but if you release multiple things with lots of huge mistakes (and mixed language menus and dialogue) people probably won't stick around.

Also, I want to take all of that old geezer's money.

The protagonist is just too nice to do it!
I guess i could:

Spoiler: Spoiler for the demo

have him be mean cus Vastuu is maybe the Demonking and then you can take all!

 

[Giga Hertz]

I was mostly kidding. Maybe you can make it an option later on as you flesh it out. You could even make it have a consequence, whether that's different dialogue or preventing you from getting a better reward later.

For instance, in FF7 there's a drawer where a boy keeps 5G, and you can either steal it or leave it alone. If you leave it alone, you can get a Turbo Ether (aside from usefulness of the item, is worth 100G). If you steal it, you only get the 5G. That's it.
