Not related to RPG Maker on surface, still working in the same field, I can't see this going well once this become fame enough. Does anyone know more regarding this projects' history? My first impression was something pen&paper, then seeing its software I thought it was some extension for RPG Maker. But as this seems to be some kind of RPG Maker 3D, is this a ripoff that tries to harvest on the name, or is there some real connection on a personal level?
