Recruiting for game titles made by PGMMV to be published onto Nintendo Switch!
Dear PGM users,
Thank you for your continued support of Pixel Game Maker MV!
Are you aware that games made by Pixel Game Maker MV can be published onto the Nintendo Switch platform?
That’s right! Even if you do not know any programming, you may still be able to become a game creator of the super popular Nintendo Switch console! So far there have been up to 32 PGM-made games released, with more coming soon!
You can find a list of published PGM titles here! https://rpgmakerofficial.com/act_game/game/?lang=en
Do note however, that to develop for Nintendo Switch using Pixel Game Maker MV, you will need to setup the dedicated developer environment. A publishing contract with Gotcha Gotcha Games is required for this.
If you are interested in reading up a little about the dedicated environment, you can find it here: https://customers.microsoft.com/en-us/story/1386970234134406611-software-advanced-research-gaming-azure-en-japan Using our specially designed platform, you will not need the developer's version of Switch console for this! We do not request additional upfront cost required to obtain this developer environment. However, you will need to have a Nintendo Switch console of your own and internet connectivity.
The hurdles might seem intimidating, but it is worth a shot!
At Gotcha Gotcha Games, we are always recruiting all sorts of titles to publish from PGM users.
There will be a screening by us first, followed by Nintendo themselves. Other than this, the opportunities are open to any developers, from anywhere!
If you have games in development or already completed, and are interested in selling on the Nintendo Switch, please consider applying under below link! https://rpgmakerofficial.com/en/application/action_tkool/

(Hot Fix) Update 1.05.13 Released
Dear PGM Users！ Thank you for you continued support of PGM. We have now updated the default branch to 1.0.5.13.
This is a hot fix for 1.0.5.12 where we have received many reports of movement speed and gravity seems to be broken when changing FPS. This seems to be caused by the fix "Jump speed now properly syncs with the current frame rate." that we attempted in 1.0.5.12. As a hot fix, we have reversed this change back to as it was in 1.0.5.11 We will investigate further to pinpoint the root cause for our next patch. As a result of this, the old issue "Jump height may fluctuate as FPS drops" may occur again for the time being.
We are terribly sorry for this inconvenience. Please allow us some time to correct this. We really appreciate your patience!
