yoooo rpg maker xp is free on steam rn. you can just click the button and you own it, for free https://store.steampowered.com/app/235900/RPG_Maker_XP/
rpg maker xp is free-to-own on steam rn and the whole thing takes up less than half as much space on your hard drive as a single godot "export template". what that means is: this entire tool and all its example content is smaller than a minimal godot game with no content can be!
i suspect it's similar for unity these days but can't easily check.
this isn't a complaint about software bloat, anything below 100MB feels "lightweight" these days, but it is interesting.
oh my god it comes with a .chm (windows html help) file 🥺
@hikari Want to know something cursed? Ultrasound cardiology software made by a certain US multinational defaults to exporting diagnoses as CHM files.
@jernej__s what on earth
@hikari According to one of their techs, they wanted a solution where they could have a single file with rich text, tables and images, which would be readable anywhere, and 25 years ago CHM files seemed like the perfect solution, since the viewer was already installed on practically every Windows install, and the resulting files were small.
@jernej__s reasonable!
