About RMVX

RPG Maker, known in Japan as RPG Tsukūru (RPGツクール, RPG Tsukūru^? sometimes romanized as RPG Tkool), is the name of an expansive series of programs for the development of role-playing games (RPGs), first created by the Japanese group ASCII, then succeeded by Enterbrain. The Japanese name, Tsukūru is a pun mixing the Japanese word tsukuru (作る), which means “make” or “create”, with tsūru (ツール), the Japanese transcription of the English word “tool”^.

The RPG Maker series has been released primarily in Japan, with later versions also released in China, Taiwan, South Korea, and North America.

The newest version of RPG Maker, RPG Maker VX was released in 2008.
