  For a time, this project featured some promise, and it's main failings were the same as a lot of these indie 'dungeon-maker' games - lack of customization in enemy stats, appearance, abilities, and behavior. You can only play so many maps before you get tired of fighting the same types of enemies in similar formations. Things were headed in a positive direction when the devs decided to change how respawning worked - a mechanic shift that completely ruined any sort of challenge in these creations and the game as a whole. The person designing the map HAS to be able to control the mechanics within said map, or they really have no say in gameplay at all, and the map becomes little more than window dressing. There was roughly a year of time where this game was alright and getting better, then it seems like the devs kneecapped the gameplay and ran. At least I won their survey prize, so my copy was basically free. Strongly not recommended. Fight the Dragon is better, despite also being abandoned.

  I purchased Myworld mainly because I really, really like the team behind this. I've been using Gameguru since its launch - before that, I used FPS Creator too - , so when I found out that the craziest mind in the team - Ravey - was behind this project, I just needed to purchase it. So, after I finished my work (about 6 a.m.) I decided I would give this a try. After making a run in two of the pre-made levels -which are really satisfying, in a weird way -, I went straight to the level editor, thinking about spending some 15 minutes on it before I went to bed. Two and a half hours later, and making a huuuuge effort, I managed to gather up the will to shutdown the program, asking myself what-happened-here. Let me start by saying that the combat in Myworld looks quite similar to the one found in most new generation RPGs, following the formula of the Dark Souls series, and similar. It's pretty solid, and it works. Can't say much more about it however, as I really dislike DS and similar games - my combat needs to be fast, energetic and franctic - , yet I have faith in that the developers will add several alternatives to it, including different classes of heroes, which they have already confirmed. The environments look great, the art is absolutely original, and there's a whole lot of objects to place, break, place some more, and keep on breaking. There are also several kinds of enemies, each with their own characteristics, including creatures that can't be stunned, and even bosses, one of them a summoner; and a solid waypoint system reminiscent of that found in Gameguru (which I am thankful for). The editor, well... it's just awesome. There are quite a lot of tools that allow to shape the terrain any way you want, making the ground possibilities almost infinite. A nice assortment of buildings, gates, adornments, and other neat stuff, in a collection of assets that will continue to grow, talking from experience here (Gameguru, remember?). There are some nice background picks out there, and here's hoping for a lot more. But I believe my favourite thing, one that I did not expect and made me spend countless minutes modifying things is... the paint tool. Yes indeed, you can paint your terrain any way you like. Green mountains with reddish stripes, colored with brown moats here and there? No problem! White ground, brown pathway and a surreal pink border crossing the town? Well, why not! A desertic landscape with violet and orange dunes? OF COURSE!!! I believe that is an amazing, incredibly versatile tool that will lead to a whole universe of creations from many different people. And boy, do I hope that they add it to Gameguru too... one can dream, right? To close up: if you want to make lighter darksoul-ish quick levels, chain them to a whole game, and play them with your friends, family, neighbours and whoever you want, then this is the software for you. TGC has been working in the game creation industry for quite a while now. They have experience, they deliver, and they keep their promises, always listening to what the community has to say. Speaking of which, if this community gets to be half as good as Gameguru's one, it will be just awesome. I absolutely recommend this game, and can't wait to spend my breaks building levels, testing them, and sharing them. Suggestions: 1- the quest editor needs two more things: conditions (needed to take this quest) and rewards. 2- a little more variety in friendly characters. We need a town marshall, a priest, a jailer... you know, the typical medieval types. 3- flying enemies would not be bad at all. 4- some sounds are a little stale, mainly the character's sword. Do you accept collaborations? 5- Modular buildings. Oh, yeah. And finally, a message for Ravey... WHERE'S MAH JINGLE PACK??? Keep it up guys ;)

  Pretty fun so far. I can hardly wait until the loot system gets implemented. I love the in-game World Hub set up. Making custom worlds was pretty easy and very fun. Easiest quest creation system I have ever interacted with so far. This program has a lot of potential. I cant wait to see what gets added to it in the future. This could have unlimited assets added to it as far as add-ons and such go. I noticed the mobs auto level up to match the level of the player character. I am assuming this because they never became easier to kill even at higher levels. Definitely need gear or something to remedy this. Over all I like this game. Knowing the Devs, this game will only get better. Two thumbs up! Cheers!!

  It's like RPG maker, but with 3d graphics, better gameplay, and you don't have to be a nuclear physicist to make a good story and game.

  Updated Review: My previous review is is mentioned below this is my new review of the game. To start off the art style of this game is simplistic and its something which i can appreciate and its something i prefer but thats just me. The sound matches the atmosphere of the game, there is not voice acting for any NPC or even your main character. Gameplay wise there are 5 characters or classes you can choose from, 2 damage dealers, 2 tanks, and 1 glass cannon, they have their own set of skills and its very situational when it comes to tanks, so choose wisely. In terms of Quests you need to download worlds from the workshop to have new quests and experience new worlds. If any of the workshop worlds arent for you then you can make your own world and have your own quests, and the world builder is simple and workable. So in the end this game is worth buying and spending your time on, so give it a chance and you will end up liking it and the developers are active and help if you have any problems, its an active community, however multiplayer aspect is still to be implemented properly, give it a while and this game will become your casual pleasure over time. Previous Review: Well I wanted to give it a good review however there is an issue with my game you see. I bought it and installed it and to my surprise there is absolutely no sound. I tried to look into the settings but my volume option is set to max. I dont know whether its supposed to be like this or its just my game acting up, so far i havent beenn able to find a solutioon to this problem so until this is fixed for me im going to say no to this game.

  I don't review alot but this game deserves a big thumbs up in my book. always wanted to create a RPG with a story quests, a world and easily share it with others? You can in this game Create your own enemies/bosses easily with the newly added enemy creator ? The necromancy top hat wearing goblin is born! Play endless amounts of community made worlds? Just check the workshop I will say I am a little buyest I know little to nothing about coding and I have no intrest in learning it but I always wanted a game that lets me easily create a world filled with quests and it is exactly what the title of the game pitches. the game is still in early access that always means you gamble your money on something that will never see the light of day but the devs from what I have seen are really active on the forums ready to give you update's and help. I suggest about the content of the game you look up video's and other reviews so you can form a own opinion since that is very opinion based.

  How can you justify releasing DLCs for a game that is very, very far from complete?

  It's okay. You can't do much outside of designing your own worlds and put your story in it. Game mechanics are pretty much limited to what the devs made available. So, aside from story and map design, all worlds you can play would feel pretty much the same. But there is hope yet for more, as it is still Early Access. The devs are quite active, so hopely there would be more good things to come. I'd give this a score of 3.8 out of 5. I have to deduct a whole point for the premature Egypt-themed DLC release. Hopefully this would not be an ongoing trend, where every single world theme variation would cost you.

  DLC in an early access game? I can't support such a terrible money scheme and my review stays negative until they stop this. The game is in early access. That means all content being added should be content for the full game. So why are they locking it behind a paywall, when there isn't enough content as it is and the game isn't even out? EDIT: They have resorted to updating the game as usual, but now releasing the content as "free DLC" to make themselves look good, despite this content being needed in the base game anyway. Clearly they are just doing this so they look generous but in reality, it's just another update. EDIT 2: And now the game is free to play! Great, they sell the game with tons of DLC and then make it free, with all the buyers having nothing to show for their money.

  I really enjoyed using this at it's current build there is a lot more content then in earlier iterations. Quest creation is simple but very flexible. I would like to be able to reward the player with items directly from the quest giver as well as the key reward but I love the fact you can fill a building with a with treasure and then specify the key that unlocks it from the quest giver without having to create each individual door. Everything in that building is automatically grouped so you can move the building at will and everything inside moves with it. I would like the ability to lock the objects so you don't acidentally move the buildings around which happened to me a few times. Creating a quest is done completly from the NPC which I really appreciate. It's very easy to create challenging quests quickly. Creating the atmosphere or biome is similar to disney infinity you choose the skybox and that creates the mood for the world. The character creator allows you to create NPC's and opponents. you can shape the terrain and also create impressive landscapes by combining preset mountains and landmasses. Overall it's heading in the right direction as far as simplicity which is no suprise since this is from the same publisher of game guru and FPS Creator another excellent tool. RECOMMENDED B1trider

  This is my first review and i say this is a great game, probably one of the best RPG builders EVER. If you dont have this game you should get it. The first hour of me playing i completed a whole village and after two more hours i completed the second village. It is a very simple builder, everything you need will be on the bottem of the screen, like placing houses,npcs,monsters, Or build your own monster at the top with the Character Creator. You can even publish your game on the Steam Work Shop so other people can play it. its also kid friendly game that everyone can play! So i recommend this game!

  This game is exactly what I've been looking for. I used to DM (Dungeon Master) a small D&D group, but as everyone is the group has jobs, families, and other responsibilities we aren't really able to get together like we used to do. With this game, I'm able to make quests and have friends try them out via the Steam Workshop. This game has a lot going for it and I'm happy that I've supported a group of people that clearly care about the project they are making. You can craft your own world, story, quests, etc. You can even make your own NPCs and monsters. It's all very easy to learn how to do in a short period of time and really satisfies my need to create and explore what other have created. I don't ever really leave reviews, but this project move the needle for me. Can't wait to see what else comes from The Game Creators!

  I wish there was a sideways thumb... The game seems like it should be cool at first. Make your own quests, place everything where you want, along with other things. The levelling seems interesting as you go through the pre-made levels. You level throughout everything you do, not just each quest designed. The thing about this "variety" though is that everything looks the same. Want to be in the future? Too bad, dark ages. Want to have a gothic, castlevania castle? Too bad, dark ages. Heck, it doesn't even have a massive variety for dark ages (and when I say "dark ages" I mean castles, wagons, swords, etc.). As for progress, well... there is none. As far as I can tell so far, there's no way of adjusting difficulty other than monster toughness. That sounds fine and all, but there aren't many monsters. Getting good gear is frustrating likely due to this. Want bigger chances of gear and xp? Make a level full of bosses (which are easy, except the cheating defence guy). Gear rate still sucks, but at least there may be a chance to get gear for your level. I haven't even figured that out for sure yet. As for gameplay, it's okay. There's not really any problems, other than a lack of jumping. I mean, come on. We could've made our own barriers. You may say, "Dark Souls has no jumping, just the rolling like this game." That's true, but at least Dark Souls never felt like you wanted it and had level design feeling great. These objects make you want to jump around some. "Oh, a fence, let's jump it!" Too bad. Action man is too lazy. Other stuff is fine though. Controls outside of fighting, rolling, guarding, attacking, all is pretty good. There also an auto-target button, but it's not always necessary. Like I said, I wish there was a sideways thumb. Having said that, that would mean I have plenty of negatives in this game's quality, and that doesn't earn a thumbs up. Oh, and just press ALT-F4 to quit. That damn portal to go through in order to quit has no point in being there. Put it in the damn ESC menu.

  Pros -game tries to mimic diablo and Dakr souls combat (it's a weird combination) -fairly basic creator (easy to understand and possibly master) -deicent loot drop system -PVP and co-op Cons -game camunity is practically dead in the EU and UK -you can't make a variety of quests or stoyies (just go to A, B kill boss at C and win) -no friendly Ai How to improve -lower price tag -add friendly Ai -add variety to quest types or level types 9not just got to A, B collect C + D and come back to A to kill E) -allow us to play with players who don't have it (yes turn this into a game maker) -allow custom character (player) modifier 6/10 average ONLY BUY ON SALE

  I haven't explored every nook and cranny of this engine, but my thoughts on this have already been made up. Going into this game, I was highly anticpating a full-fledged 3D action RPG Maker game. An RPG Maker where I can edit about as much as I can in any RPG Maker. Nope. There isn't even the slightest editting feature in this game. This is a game, where you grind enemy mobs for loot, complete barebone fetch quests, and that's it. There's nothing more to this game. Why is it called an RPG Maker? Is it because you can place down props on an empty map and call it your own? That's not really an RPG Maker. That's more of a game with a map editor. And that's all this game is. It's a Dark Souls wannabe with a map editor. That's it. While the map editing is fun, although it takes a bit to get used to, because the tutorial information is so bad, after you realize there's nothing you can do with this world, other than add window dressing, the appeal quickly fades. Had this game been made by a bigger studio, we probably would've gotten the 3D Action RPG Maker we always wanted. Here are a list of things you can do: Edit a world. Make a fetch quest. Change the look of monsters, and add bare-bones editing to their stats. Pick between 5 or 6 prebuilt classes with their own skills, look, weapons, and loot. Hard close your game because the game breaks, a lot. Enjoy lots, and lots of bugs. Game breaking bugs. Progression-breaking bugs. I've had to restart I don't know how many times because the game gets locked in a menu, or black screen. Use the controller in anyway besides combat. When it comes to navigating the menu screen, you have to use mouse and keyboard. Why? That's it. Here's a list of things you cannot do: Have a buy/sell shop. Have currency, of any kind. Edit weapons, armors, items and their stats. Edit your own character's stats, looks, classes, or skills. Edit monster stats beyond their hit damage, and how long it takes for them to swing. Edit loot drops, or the loot themselves. Make any type of story RPG of any kind, that I can tell. Play multiplayer, like it advertises, as barely anybody plays this. Make an RPG of any kind, with this. Reset your characters back to level 1 when trying new worlds. Everything carries over to every world you pick, whether they be preset, your own, or a workshop world. Import any music, audio, or visual customization of any kind, that I can tell. Export your game for others to play. They have to own and log into MyWorld, and download your game from Steam Workshop, in order to play it. No day/night system. The video tutorials are also suprisingly minimal, with a voice narrative that you can barely hear. I would think a little better audio recording would be done if this was a game someone was taking seriously. Apparently not. This is not the action RPG Maker I was hoping it would be, it is a fan's dream that cannot deliver on what everybody wants. The only good thing I'll say is that a lot of work must've went into the props that set the stage for the maps. They are fairly well done. But window dressing alone isn't enough to satisfy my RPG maker thirst. 3/5 stars, only because it's relatively cheap, and I still want to mess around with the world. I recommend only to those who want to play around in a pre-built world, while adding a few window-dressing elements of your own imagination. I don't recommend to those who want deep customization features like that of RPG Maker. This is a game with a map editor. That's about it. Correction: I said the game was a month away from release. It isn't. I read the release date wrong on the store page, thinking it was 2018, not 2017. This is still Early Access. I don't know what more they plan to add or change, but I hope it's a lot, and I hope it's soon. I hope they listen to the fans. I am a big fan of what this game could be, but right now, it's still iffy. Update August 2019: It's almost been a year since I last reviewed this. I tried to log back in. Apparently my world is gone. Yay! Don't know what happened. And judging by the news section of this developer there hasn't been anything new, added, or changed since December of last year.

  Wonderful game and so easy to use! I had some fun making my small first world which took me about 9 hours, but i had alot of fun doing it and if you have a good imagination then you will have heaps of fun. Pro's And Con's So Far! 28/03/2018 Pro's: - Alot of stuff and some free dlc! (I picked up the paid one for an extra $2) - Custom enemys (Still have to explore this) - LOOT! Even on your own creations! - Differnt classes - Horses! - Land scaping tool is amazing - A ton of workshop! - Multiplayer for those who want to delve into some co op RPG fighting and questing - Very very easy to use but a bit hard to get all the tricks down Con's: - Performance is a little, weird? Draw distance doesnt help much. Suggestions if i may? - Troll enemys - Place custom doors? Instead of a premade one? - Elven friendly faction! - More Houses! Make a main city more unique. - Useable - Catapaults, Ballistas and couldrens full of tar? To make it a option to take out a nearby enemy group! - Enemy damage and armor modifers would be amazing! - And please a bit of a better questing system for example Make NPC_1 give you a task to fetch a eyeball from NPC_2 and bring it to NPC_3 or Slay this boss to recive an item to give to another NPC to finish a quest line. - And lucky last, Merchants? is that possible? Would be amazing to make somthing like fetch ITEM from this NPCTRADER_1 And bring to NPC_1. It would add alot more fun to questing other than fetch quests and bossing. Thanks for reading my review! Hope it helps with your opinon on buying the game!

  Very little funtionality. Rather than being a game maker, this is more akin to the level creator in Neverwinter. You can design custom levels and things, but you can't alter the core of the game. Rather than add functionality that almost all users want, the devs seem to be keen on providing level assets AKA the easiest thing to supply in terms of "content." Not worth the time/effort/cost. Update: This dev will also ban you from the forums if you don't like the fact that they have abandoned their game and that it never amounted to more than a bare bones "game" with nearly nothing but prop updates. To the dev - Ban people and delete their posts all you want, it doesn't hide the fact that your game is bad, your management of said game is bad, and you should feel bad for leaving folks hanging.
