How to submit games to the RPG Maker Pavilion - Updated 3/5/2014

1. Select the forum that supports your submission

2. Select "New Thread".

3. For the "Title", put your game's title. ONLY your game's title.

4. In the "Message" field, describe your game's story, features, and any other information you believe is relevant.

5. If your game is a console RPG Maker game or demo, you're able to upload it directly to the site. If it's a PC RPG Maker game or demo, you'll have to upload it elsewhere and link to it here. If uploading a console game, under "Additional Options", there is an option for "Attach Files". Select "manage attachments". If you're submitting a PC RPG Maker game, you can still upload screenshots.

6. Click browse to find the game file on your computer, and click "Upload". all files MUST be zipped. You're able to upload ten attachments to your submission post. The ideal way to use these is to use one attachment for the game console's native format (dex drive or max drive), a second for a PS3 format save file, and the remaining slots for screenshots or other extra material you want to accompany your game.

7. If you need to update your game, simply edit it's submission post at any time. You can check the site's game directory to see how your game will appear in the listings after each edit. Try to make it fit in with the rest. No huge or colorful text, no images posted in the top of the post that appears in the directory, just general things like that.

8. Only one submission thread per game, unless the differences between the versions are drastic enough that it warrants having multiple versions available, such as a director's cut, or an alternate version with different features.

9. If you have a converted file for someone else's game, please post that in the conversions subforum at the bottom of the submission subforum listing.

10. Everything posted in the submission forums appears immediately on the site, so don't make a post without having your game ready to go up with it. These will be deleted on-sight by the staff.

Thank you for supporting the RPG Maker Pavilion!

    Dash Handsome - review by Split Infinity

    Story /10
    Characters/10
    Battles/10

    Puzzles/Dungeons /40




    Story -
    5/10

    The story appealed to me at first. However, it just disappeared into the background after the first 5 minutes. It wasn't brought back up until the end of the game. I particularly like the criminal old-movie-like style.


    Characters
    6/10

    There were really only four characters that were anything beyond flat. And of those, only two had much of a personality.

    Battles
    7/10

    It's a nicely done CBS. The attack animations were nicely done and I found myself laughing at a few of them . However, the Rock-Paper-Scissors style can be VERY annoying. Battles of (pure) chance don't have much going for them, excluding possibly in a gambler's collection.

    Overall Entertainment
    25/30

    The entire item system was very, very well done. Not knowing what to do with an item was aggrivating at times, but using an item and not seeing a little stat box come up was extremely satisfying . The events flowed smoothly and I found myself wanting to keep playing despite the lack of likable characters, which is rare for me to do. The battles were not really entertaining, but I loved the dungeons and puzzles.

    Puzzles/Dungeons
    38/40

    The dungeons had a refreshingly unique and attractive appearance. Puzzles required thinking but weren't the kind of puzzle with which you had to spend hours meditating. Very nicely done.



    Overall - 81/100

    Dash Handsome has a lot of things going for it that are needed in an adventure game. The dungeons pull you into their unique atmosphere. Puzzles are entertaining and don't cause agitation. Events flowed smoothly and I found myself laughing quite a few times.

    Even though the game has a nice plot backdrop, it never really manifests itself except in the very beginning and very end. Characters were boring and 2D, with Dash being the only character I actually liked.

    As for the battles... I personally disliked the style of battle, but if you're into rock/paper/scissors, then it's all for you.

    Dash Handsome is great for what it is, an adventure game. If you had spent more time with character and plot development, or leaned more towards the humorous side, it could have been a lot better. You made it a comedy, and it is funny, but you should either have that comedy side show more, or actually develop on what I feel is a good plot.

    All in all, a very good job.
