Action Game Maker is RPG Maker’s sprintier, jumpier sibling

With 2D functionality provided by Godot Engine

Advanced Engine Technology With Godot Engine!

Take advantage of the excellent 2D functionality provided by Godot Engine, the popular open source engine powering ACTION GAME MAKER!

The toolkit ships with “everything you need to build your first game" from “character art to tiles, music, and sound effects!” What’s more, “if you already have your own assets it’s easy to import them – and high resolutions are supported!”

My immediate thought here is whether the tools are going to robust enough to offer as wide an array of projects as RPG Maker? Everyone’s got a story to tell, but does everyone have a distinctive double jump to unleash on the world? Are we going to get action-y equivalents ofLisa: The PainfulorTo The Moon? Will I cave and settle for a lesser version of the legally distinct Little Shop Of Horrors management sim of my dreams? Anything is possible, it seems, as long as it involves chaining verbs together. RPG Maker XP, by the by, is currently90% off on Steam, although it has been cheaper than that in the past by a good 10%. You can find Action Game Maker on Steamhere, release date TBC.
