It adds 22 editor tabs for characters, enemies, maps, items and skills, plus 74 types of event content. It supports top-down 2D fields and a first-person 3D dungeon mode, formula-based balance rules, and export to Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Web. It costs 2,980 yen on BOOTH and $29.99 on itch.io.","whyItMatters":"RPG Wizard G targets a specific gap: it removes scripting from the Godot workflow while restricting itself to Godot 4.7.1, so the add-on's lifespan is tied to a single version of an engine currently heading into its own 4.8 feature freeze.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe add-on installs into Godot and adds a dedicated interface with 22 tabs inside the editor, covering character, enemy, map, item and skill data, plus 74 types of event content for building scenarios and direction. Balance rules are set through a proprietary formula notation, so damage, hit determination, action order, level-up growth and enemy AI action probabilities can be adjusted per project.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStats extend past HP and MP into Focus, Karma and Lifespan, with support for equipment and passive skills and timing control for buffs and debuffs. Export follows Godot\u0026#39;s own functionality: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Web.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"RPG Wizard G's $29.99 itch.io price and 2,980 yen BOOTH price land on the same builder. ponApp is testing whether a Godot 4 add-on can be sold as a standalone tool rather than a free plugin.","twitterPost":"RPG Wizard G prices at $29.99 on itch.io and 2,980 yen on BOOTH. ponApp is selling a Godot 4 add-on as a paid tool.","threadsPost":"RPG Wizard G ships to Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Web, with top-down 2D and first-person 3D modes in one editor. ponApp's real bet is that a Godot 4 add-on can carry a $29.99 price without splitting into separate tools.","newsletterBlurb":"Indie developer ponApp released RPG Wizard G on October 10, an add-on that builds RPGs inside Godot Engine 4 through a GUI rather than code. It adds 22 editor tabs and 74 types of event content, and covers both top-down 2D fields and a Wizardry-style first-person 3D dungeon mode. Export follows Godot's own targets, but the add-on currently runs only on Godot 4.7.1, not the 4.7.2 stable or 4.8 development builds.","attributionJson":"[{\"source\":\"GameBusiness.jp\",\"url\":\"https://www.gamebusiness.jp/article/2026/10/11/28292.html\",\"title\":\"No Programming Required: From 2D RPGs to Wizardry-Style 3D Dungeons in Godot 4 - 'RPG Wizard G' Launches\"}]","lintFlagsJson":null,"lintHits":0,"costUsd":0,"inputTokens":4729,"outputTokens":749,"status":"published","repairAttempts":0,"nextRepairAt":null,"factsAttemptedAt":1791690732,"createdAt":"2026-10-11T03:46:55.000Z","publishedAt":"2026-10-11T03:51:07.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-11T03:51:07.000Z"},"cluster":{"id":"c_247c311c0e82de65db20a801","canonicalTitle":"プログラミング不要、Godot 4で2DRPGからWiz風3Dダンジョンまで―「RPGウィザードG」登場","representativeArticleId":"a_10ae8159cc4cfe4cb0f4ceef","sourceCount":1,"writtenSourceCount":1,"writeAttempts":0,"isSolo":true,"entitiesJson":"{\"anime_titles\":[],\"manga_titles\":[],\"work_titles\":[\"RPG Wizard G\"],\"studios\":[],\"people\":[],\"type\":\"announcement\",\"domain\":\"games\",\"is_roundup\":false}","contentType":"news","status":"published","firstSeenAt":"2026-10-11T02:29:33.000Z","lastSeenAt":"2026-10-11T02:29:33.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-11T03:51:06.000Z"},"attribution":[{"source":"GameBusiness.jp","url":"https://www.gamebusiness.jp/article/2026/10/11/28292.html","title":"プログラミング不要、Godot 4で2DRPGからWiz風3Dダンジョンまで―「RPGウィザードG」登場"}],"entities":{"anime_titles":[],"manga_titles":[],"work_titles":["RPG Wizard G"],"studios":[],"people":[],"type":"announcement","domain":"games","is_roundup":false},"keyFacts":null}
