Screenshot of RPG Maker's map editor, which is opened to a map called "Castle Rooms - Small". The map contains a variety of castle rooms: common areas, shops, libraries, inns, guard posts, and stairwells. The rooms are separated by 1-tile-wide bands of empty space.

Here's a little behind-the-scenes glimpse of castle room templates that will be used in random castle generation. I'm preparing the smallest room styles first and going up from there.

Screenshot of Stories from Danger's Den, an 8-bit-style game with a top-down view. A house is surrounded by city walls, which are surrounded by a forest. The house has warm gray cobblestone walls, red-brown flagstone floors, and three beds. Three townspeople wander around inside. A guard patrols the courtyard outside the house but inside the city walls. Two adventurers walk atop the city walls.

A curious settlement that spawned a week ago: a single house, surrounded by a full set of city walls. Though it originated because of a bug I've since fixed, it's given me a design idea.

The title screen for "Quartet" shows little vignettes of our characters to give you a taste of what's to come!

Can you tell we're inspired by FFVI?

Last week was my first week back at Stories from Danger's Den development after months on hold. I got watchtowers spawning into the worlds. These small structures have guards who give advice and directions. Sometimes they have an armory, too.

For the final project for my video game composition course, I have students compose music for a 2-minute gameplay video, and I would LOVE to feature a couple indie games.

So if you're an indie dev that might be interested in this, let me know!

I tried using Git for an RPG Maker MV project once because it works great for most code projects. But Git was always giving me trouble about line breaks and counting files as changed when they were merely touched by RPG Maker. So I feel vindicated in pointing RPG Maker users to Subversion.

I use a Subversion repository on Assembla for my RPG Maker MZ project. It's what I started using with a previous group project, and it was a good fit for us because TortoiseSVN was pretty easy for the non-programmer team members to pick up and use.
