RPG Developer Bakin Reviews

I've been using Bakin almost every weekend since I bought it, and now, here I am, writing a review after spending 1,000 hours with it. So, here's my honest review: [hr][/hr] [b]Pros:[/b] Easy to learn. Despite not having as many tutorials as other software, Bakin is surprisingly easy to learn. If you've ever used RPG Maker before, transitioning to Bakin will be smooth sailing. I highly recommend it if you're passionate about game development but not yet ready to use Unity or Unreal. Powerful UI creator. Let's be honest—creating UI in RPG Maker is a pain. You need advanced coding skills to build custom interfaces. That's not the case with Bakin. Just import your assets, rearrange them on a canvas, configure some options, and you're done—no coding needed. Flexible camera settings. There are so many customization options for the camera—dynamic cameras for battles, cutscenes, and exploration? Check. Post-processing effects? Check. First-person view? Check. The camera settings are so fun to use that my project ended up with dozens of different configurations. Event system. It takes time to master all the event functionalities, but once you get the hang of it, you'll see its potential. Someone even created a Pokémon-like gameplay system without coding—just by utilizing event chains. [hr][/hr] [b]Cons:[/b] Performance issues. The software slows down when you have too many assets. Even after installing Bakin on an SSD, browsing through hundreds of resources is so painful. Limited resources. Unlike other game engines like Unity or RPG Maker, Bakin doesn't have many custom scripts or tutorials available online. This is unfortunate, as it has so much potential. Small community. The community is supportive but still quite small. As far as I know, Discord is the only platform with active discussions about this engine. Limited export options. Currently, you can only export to PC/Steam. Fortunately, a Unity exporter is on the roadmap. Once it's launched, we'll be able to export to Unity and then to mobile or even console platforms. [b]Overview:[/b] Bakin is the best engine for those who aren't ready to use a "real" engine like Unity or Unreal. If you love RPGs and don't want to build common features—such as dialogue systems, event movement, save/load systems, and UI—from scratch, Bakin is the perfect engine for you.
