- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

RPG Maker XP is what got me into game development when I was 12, I can't remember the amount of hours I poured into that program. I will always have a sweet spot for them, but I think the art style of the new versions aren't as good.
For me it was Daisy's Garden.
I remember my friend at the time made an entire Pokémon game in it, with like 30 different stat modifiers and evolution and everything.
The whole engine fit on a single 3 1/4 in floppy disk. It wasn't really a very good engine because I seem to remember you had to have the engine to run the games, you couldn't just bundle them, but if you did have the engine there were quite a few fun things to do.
