Pokémon Infinite Fusion on Android: JoiPlay Setup [2026]

- Pokémon Infinite Fusion is a standalone game built in RPG Maker XP, using the RGSS scripting layer. - The game is not a ROM, cartridge dump, or console to emulate, but rather a folder of Ruby scripts, tileset graphics, and audio files. - The mainline build of the game reached version 6.7.2 on October 2, 2025, and was updated to version 6.8.2 by August 2026. - The game combines two Pokémon into a single custom sprite and blended stat line, generating the combined artwork procedurally. - The Android-specific performance complaints come from the CPU doing image layering work in real time when compositing fusion sprites on lower-end devices.

RPG Maker forums are closing, nearly 15 years of knowledge and online culture are at risk of being wiped

The official RPG Maker forums are set to close, with the existing forums not being archived, resulting in the potential loss of over 1.4 million posts. Specific forums like the Legacy Engine Support forum have more than 280,000 posts, and the Javascript Plugins forum contains 276,000 messages. The forums will remain accessible until December 11, 2026, transitioning to read-only mode on June 18, 2026, and new account registrations are already disabled. Gotcha Gotcha Games is launching a new platform called the RPG Maker Guild for community collaboration. There are concerns about losing a significant knowledge base, but archivist Jason Scott hinted at possible assistance from the Internet Archive for preservation efforts.
