As you can see, I have made a non-CV giveaway for RPG Maker VX Ace that will end in late November-- it is available only to members of this group which is currently empty.

How will we fill this group?

As the title alludes, any wishing to join should propose a videogame of their own! Specifically, a design that can be created with the prize at hand, RPG Maker VX Ace. Your proposal may take any shape you wish and can be any length, but it must be posted here in this thread. Any idea deemed worthy will receive a group invite.

Acceptance is completely at my discretion and current state of intoxication. I'll be looking for legibility, well-defined goals, and some sense of how you will implement your grand ideas. I reserve the right to be picky-as-a-mofo, because I intend to keep the overall number of entries relatively low. This is a free opportunity to bounce some creative ideas off of your digital peers, and we will all get to observe the progress and product of our winner.

I'll be dropping some small, private GA links along the way for giggles. I hope you find the event intriguing and entertaining, good luck! ^__^

Hmmm... I've multiple ideas I'm really excited to write down here but it's late so I will do tomorrow perhaps. But I'm more a designer then a coder so I'm more interested to co-op with someone to work with. Or is coding not necessary in RPG maker?

Bad Rats 2: Revenge of the Cheese

RPG idea: the player character is very proud and believes he is very socially competent, but is in fact very terrible at getting along with people and understanding their motives. As he levels up, his speech options become much more relevant and pleasing to his audience. Eventually, he's capable of making friends and moving up in society.

This story will be told without standard JRPG battles, but primarily with dialogue options unlocked based on character knowledge of the explored world (much like inventory) and based on social competence level.

Very simple. Little need to modify standard RPG implementation.

I'd make a Sword Art Online RPG. With more fights than in anime/manga, grinding like a mad in bushes, training your pokemon... wait... But for real, someone have to make a good SAO RPG. I'd volunteer for that :>

What's crazy, is I know that exact image. It's from the Dungeons & Dragons 3.0 book Deities and Demigods, where they statted out a bunch of god from known pantheons and other epic level jazz. The god featured above is their imagining of Zeus, that book has sick art.

A RPG about how a man decided to fight against cookie invasion (cf Cookie clicker)
A lot of things to toy around, like fighting different types of grandmas, having a "Cookie-Dex" with all the kind of cookies and cookie-related monsters you killed...

I'm thinking, the best idea for RPG's is an epic quest to find something. Though i've always been amused by the whole. Get to the final level, and you quested long and hard to find your grand fathers boomerang or something, that was stolen by this evil wizard who he used to share an apartment with.

Hey, if i ever get RPG maker, i'm totally making that game!

also bumpy bumpy

Ok so my idea:

"The great Continet of Gracia lays in shambles. Demon Lord with his armies marched from South and conquered all kingdoms that stood on his way. After ten years of slaughter, handful of kingdoms that left, send out party of their best heroes to kill Demon Lord. Now only four of them survived. At this moment the Great Heroes stand before Demon King in his tower. After hours of fighting Demon Lord felt that his power is weakening so He cast his last, ultimate spell. It blinded Heroes and covered whole tower in light, but something unexpected happened. And now here I stand with my Lord in this weird world of 2013... I wonder what now my Demon Lord will do?"

It's shortened version of prologue to my game that will serve as introduction to story and short tutorial. The game mostly will take place in our 2013/2014 world with some exceptions. It will be an RPG with MANY CHOICES and ENDINGS. Mostly it will be storytelling but there will be also fights. The main advantage of this game will be bunch of great characters, NPC's, Joinable characters and those who will want to kill you. I have an artist friend so She will help me with CG to this game. Also if it's possible in RPGmaker it will have english voice over. If someone didn't get it from prologue main hero of the game is Demon Lord not Heroes... Of course they all will have names their titles are just for presentation purposes.

I hope you will add me to the giveaway and even if I wont win I want to know what you people think about this idea. So maybe I just buy RPGMaker and make it on my own...

P.S. I will mention about you in Special Thanks in Credits :P xD

Bump! Make a game similar with Original Pokemon. In a parallel universe where Shinnies are everywhere and normal are rare. And instead of the peaceful island, its all chaotic and crazy. Muahaha.

I've always wanted to see the making of a game that in part follows the idea of what Grotesque Tactics was trying to do, that is, the use of as many of the tropes as possible, but instead of doing it as a self-aware parody, having it 100 percent serious.

But included in that game would be a multi-generational story that allows the player to start with their hero of choice that they make on their own, and allows them to select any one of their party to marry and have children with. Each following generation would consequently have a hybridized character at the beginning that is a mix of your previous and your chosen mate, literally allowing you to shape your hero.

Of course, combat to me requires it be a little more tactical than just the stock whack-a-mole of some games, so there would need to be a level of rock-paper-scissors to the game's combat design and magic.

Ideally, I would set it at a time where the first generation has realized that magic is growing weaker and that they must do something to save it, then as the story progresses they come to realize that magic has largely been misused and the human race is better off without it, so as the generations jump it moves from a preindustrial to industrial steampunk era, where magic is still around, but those who use it are becoming fewer and fewer. The player would be given the choice to either breed towards magical power or not, as it turns out bloodlines are super important and to make the choice of saving magic's long history, or moving forward with a revolution to end the genetically-linked oligarchy for all time.

I would make the hero see the multiple different positive and negative ways magic and technology are used and leave the choice of which to support in their hands.

The last two generations would be pretty much an all out war between the last bastion of magical dominance and the growing powerbase of the mundane.

You're certainly welcome to expand on an older idea. However, simply linking some old work here is terribly low effort :P
