MZQuizzer v0.5
by Starbird

Basic Quiz Engine for RPG Maker MZ. This is a replacement for the MVQuizzer plugin, which is no longer supported.

Note: This plugin is NOT plug-and-play, but it is fairly simple. Detailed instructions are included and no technical knowledge is necessary beyond what you need to use RMMZ.

FREE FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE. FOR COMMERCIAL USE, PLEASE DM FIRST.

Introduction:
MZQuizzer displays and evaluates multiple choice, true/false, and short answer questions. The system allows you to create and manage a large database of questions with ease. Quickly add or change questions without having to step through maps and events. Include images and audio with questions. Supports timed questions and keyboard input for short answer questions.

My hope is that teachers and home school parents can use this to more easily develop educational games. Another goal is the release of better tools for question database creation.
