[NEW] Tactical Plugin Suite for RPG Maker
🎮 Introducing: Tactical Plugin Suite RPGM
Transform RPG Maker MZ into a tactical strategy game engine!
After months of development and testing, I'm thrilled to announce the release of the Tactical Plugin Suite RPGM - a comprehensive set of plugins that turns RPG Maker MZ into a powerful engine for creating tactical turn-based strategy games and 4X empire builders.
🎯 What makes this special?
No coding required. Build games like Civilization, XCOM, or Fire Emblem using simple plugin commands and intuitive configuration. Everything you need is included in a modular, tier-based system that grows with your project.
🚀 What's Included
🎯 Point & Click Core
Complete camera controls, zoom system, custom cursors, and interactive tile highlighting. The foundation for everything else.
⚔️ Turn-Based System
Independent party members with individual turns, action buttons, turn monitoring, and unit info windows. Full tactical control.
🚶 Movement Grid
Visual movement grids with pathfinding, range calculation, and smooth animations. Make tactical movement intuitive and beautiful.
⚔️ Battle System
Attack grids, skill selection, target selection, and full battle animations. Complete tactical combat out of the box.
✨ Key Features
- Modular Architecture - Use only what you need. Each plugin builds on the previous one in a clean tier system.
- Fully Configurable - Extensive parameters for visuals, gameplay mechanics, and UI elements. Make it yours.
- Plugin Commands - Control everything through events. No JavaScript knowledge required.
- Complete Demo Project - Learn by example with a fully functional demo including tutorial events.
- Professional Quality - Battle-tested code with proper error handling and web deployment support.
- Comprehensive Documentation - Every parameter and command explained in detail.
🎮 Perfect For
- 📊 Tactical Strategy Games - Turn-based combat with positioning and range mechanics
- 🏛️ 4X Empire Builders - Civilization-style games with resource management
- ⚔️ SRPGs - Strategy RPGs like Fire Emblem or Advance Wars
- 🎯 Turn-Based Tactics - XCOM-style tactical combat
- 🗺️ Hex-Based Strategy - Grid-based movement and combat systems
🛠️ How It Works
The suite uses a tier-based architecture:
- Tier 0: Point_Click_Core - Foundation plugin (camera, zoom, cursor)
- Tier 1: Turn-Based System - Core turn management (requires Tier 0)
- Tier 2: Extensions - Movement Grid & Battle System (require Tier 1)
This means you can start simple and add complexity as needed. Want just point-and-click? Use Tier 0. Need full tactical combat? Add all tiers. The choice is yours.
