Margonem (2019, STEAM Gameplay 2020)
2Margonem is an Mmo in pixel art style using the RPG Maker tileset assets and custom made assets. The mmo is produced and developed by Garmory, and released on Steam in 2019.
This is going to be a rough few words I have to write here, I tried to like the game but the state it is in, and the use of RPG Maker style RTP stuff from Enterbrain's RPG Engines is just a no no for me. I'm NO fan of RPG Maker RTP Tileset assets being used in games.. they look cheap and nasty, the countless rpg maker games I have tried THIS is the only one I actually enjoyed looking at with the RTP tilesets.
It would be interesting to see what engine they actually used to make this game with cos I have a sneaky suspicion it's not one of Enterbrain's RPG Maker engines.. which if it is not then most of these assets are being used illegally.
Character screen: This is just a total mess, this needs reworking cos it's so weird trying to choose your character class, character looks etc.
Tutorial: There's currently a bug that prevents you from finishing the tutorial so after trying the tut 3 times i realised it was broken and had to skip it with my 4th character. It seems the game is just not teleporting you to the main beginner town after the npc tells you the cave ceiling is caving in and you decide to run.
Music: There seems to be some bug that don't load music into the game when you first start, it IS there though, you just need to go set it in the Audio options so it works.
Graphics: Again.. RTP tilesets, i have already said what i wanted to say about that but the maps are ALL very well designed and looked lived in, the surrounding nature makes the areas look vibrant. Not one map is similar to the other so that's a good thing. I DO NOT like how they have zoomed out the map, it makes the tilesets look smaller, and some of the characters look out of place in the game.
Battles: THIS is the worse part of the game, the battles work like this.. enter.. press F and let the game win for you, PATHETIC! NO skill needed what so ever. Whilst you CAN fight manually.. what's the point if it has an auto function for you? it's less work.
If your interested in trying this game out then you can find it here..
