As with other <em>RPG Maker<\/em> products, you can create RPGs without any coding knowledge thanks to its command system and editable parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A variety of assets for things like audio, characters, enemies, and world biomes are available to use, in addition to an enhanced map editor which supports pre-rendered backgrounds and object-oriented map structures. Like its predecessors, <em>RPG Maker Unite<\/em> provides a premade database that includes character stats, classes, items, abilities, monsters, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To coincide with the announcement of <em>RPG Maker Unite<\/em>, Gotcha Gotcha Games has started a sale event called <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/rpgmaker_festival\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RPG Maker Festival<\/a> on Steam.
