Try Out RPG Videogame Development Tool on Steam for Free for a Limited Time

Developers and publishers sometimes offer the opportunity to check out their games for free for a limited time, giving players the chance to try out an extended demo of the game. This promotion is usually utilised throughout the weekend, so that gamers have ample time to check out the title without outright burning it out, and later deciding whether to continue their experience after the license has been revoked.

This, however, is not your usual free videogame to try throughout the weekend, but instead, a program for videogame development for a limited time. Gotcha Gotcha Games' RPG Maker MZ has been an accessible way for developers to begin their development journey by offering free, commercial-use assets, scripting opportunities, and so much more.

It's rare to a program enter the free weekend period, but for those who have been looking for an excuse to start videogame development and give it a shot, this is the perfect chance to do it through a well-known engine. RMG Maker MZ is the latest one by Gotcha Gotcha Games, offering improvements from the previous RPG Maker MV.

The program has been received positively by users as well, with 85% positive review score amidst 1,755 ratings overall. It's praised for being better and more in-depth than the previous MV, and offering robust options to check it out.
