GMKR : Create maps and scenarios for pixel-art RPGs with the help of this neat software that provides everything from characters, items to collect, weapons, keys and doors to unlock
With so many development kits made available for beginner developers out there, it should come as to no surprise someone might think of creating a map editor for 8bit RPGs.One such tool is GMKR, and it provides you with all the tools you may need to create your 8bit RPG scenario.
A great tool for 8bit RPG and JRPG fans
From the moment you first open the app, you will be greeted by a menu reminiscent of the golden days of RPGs. The music is also a nice addition, making the entire menu seem like the menu of a game and not an app in itself.From then on, you have two choices; either test out (play would be a better word) the maps other users created, or start creating one of your own from scratch.
Enjoy a gallery of player-created content
Before all else, it is worth mentioning is that the 8bit graphics is done in a JRPG fashion, so not everyone may find it appealing.If you choose to test out content created by others, you will be in for a treat. First of all the number of choices, you can make is quite large, up to the point where you have filters at your disposal to better find what you are looking for.However, if you decide on creating your custom content from scratch, then you will truly have your work cut out for you.You can create complete scenarios and campaigns equipped with environmental details, characters, items, trigger events and more, and the process is made fairly easy thanks to game-like UI.
