Hi all,
I am thinking about releasing GDU prematurely. That means releasing it when a large number of the sections are yet to be coded.
To be honest, I have lost a lot of motivation and faith in RPG Maker. Perhaps due to a combination of the whithering activity of the more active RMXPU members, or the anti-competitive actions of enterbrain that is trying...

Welcome to the first entry of Project GDU :)
Today I am going to show you the initial look at some of the typography. I have gone for green for two reasons: 1. It was the main color of our longest surviving theme and 2. to depart from the most common website color, blue. I think that will help establish a unique factor to the site (not the green, the fact...
