Rpg Maker Developers Group

While we didn't quite reach our initial funding goal, we truly believe in the importance of ensuring that all developers have access to reliable backup solutions for their projects. That's why we've made the decision to offer the base Game Backup plugin for free, so that everyone can benefit from its features and protect their hard work with ease. When we say free, we mean free, source code and all, but we do plan on releasing premium add-ons in the future.

This plugin is currently in early access, but it's stable and ready for use.

What is the Game Backup Plugin?
The Game Backup plugin for RPG Maker is an advanced backup solution for your games! It makes sure your game and all its data are safe. With this tool, you can easily make copies of your game while you're testing it, so if anything unexpected happens, you have a backup ready.

Keep Everything Safe: This tool lets you make backups of your game effortlessly, so you're always prepared for any surprises during testing.

You're in Charge: You get to decide how your backups work – when they happen, what to include, and even if you want a full backup. It's like having your own helper, always following your instructions.

️ Smart Storage: The tool uses a special trick called gzip compression to make sure your backups take up less space but still keep everything safe and sound.

Easy to Use: This tool fits right into your RPG Maker toolset, making sure everything works together smoothly. Let the Game Backup plugin be your game-making assistant, giving you peace of mind as you create your awesome game!
