Bakin DLC Ambassador Program Information

Since the release of the Early Access version of "RPG Developer Bakin" in October 2022, we have been developing it every day for the release of the full version, with the support of many users. In addition to improving "RPG Developer Bakin" itself, we would like to continue to increase the range of downloadable content (DLC), which will add color to the work.

Therefore, we recruited 'Bakin DLC Ambassadors' who worked with us to test and promote DLCs and spread the word about 'RPG Developer Bakin' and the DLCs until July 4, 2024. Those who participated in this project not only were the first to try out these DLCs, but also received free copies of the targeted DLCs.

(Added on August 21, 2024)The Ambassadors will be asked to successfully conduct the first DLC test, after which they will be asked to release advance information about the DLC.
We are pleased to announce the Ambassadors who have been selected.
We will also ask the Ambassadors to use the hashtags “#RPGBakin” and “#DLCAmbassador” when posting on social networking sites, etc., so please use them as a reference.
