I'm really enjoying exploring OHRRPGCE, but find it odd that the plotscripting is outside of the Custom program, considering it's just editing text. I like the fact you can do so much in a straight DOS-alike environment, and having to leave it to use a code editor beaks the spell somewhat. If you stuck a simple OPL3 tracker in there it'd literally be my dream environment!
We don't have an offline version, but maybe adding one would be useful. I would have to figure out how to safely scrape a snapshot of the wiki.
Vikings of Midgard isn't in all the downloads. I need to check and see which ones have it. The minimal packages don't have it, and I am not sure if any of the Linux packages currently do. It does have its own itch page also, at https://fenrir-lunaris.itch.io/vikings-of-midgard . I will make sure to link to that next time I update that help page. Thank you for mentioning it!
Sometimes people will tag their games here on itch with #ohrrpgce but if you want a big list of games, try http://www.slimesalad.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=4
Many are unfinished, and many are just tech demos, or joke games, but there are a lot of full games mixed in there too.
I've been waiting over two years for a stable update, due to wanting to use some features for a game I'm actively developing like the new "Hide/Unhide" generic options expanding on the old "Jump/Land" mechanics allowing me to do things like thief backstabs and burrowing attacks better.
Having tried making a game TUTORIAL with a Nightly build, I've learned my lesson on overly relying on features of nightly builds.
The engine has evolved a lot over the last few years. Some of the games made with it are miles away from what you'd expect to see from an OHRPGCE game, likeDigital Soul Data.
