lol yes I remember playing RPG Maker 95 - I had to download it from Kazaa or Limewire, can't remember which one, because there was no official translation or port. It was hacked, translated, and released by some Russian guy named "Don Miguel". the Internet was so wild back in the day
I don't recall it being 30 years old but I was more speaking to how simple this version appears to make things. Basically the difference between pounding out HTML code by hand (your '30 year old' version) vs dragging / dropping things into a doc to make a website in 5 minutes without any specialized skills (VX Ace).

But hey, even if I was that old...what would be the problem?

Glad this didn't exist when I was a young teen....I would have have had even less of a social life.

Wow talk about blast to the past. Messed with rpgmaker2000 20+ years ago and had completely forgotten about. Made a town and initital storyline, then realized it would take way too long to make a game so I quit. 20 years later with a family and job?? Click install.

It's not the most current version, also about 13 years old. But we'll see, maybe I'll whip up a town for my kids to walk around in, put their friends in the game just for funsies

Already own this one through past bundles. Though didn't really do much with it. Wish it was the MV version with JavaScript support.

Get the MZ bundle for $3 because it's much newer than VX. I bought MZ only a couple years ago for close to $30. 😔

Edit: Oops. I missed that it is pricing it this way because I already have MZ in my library.
