Notice: This is my sandbox for the Sphere (rpg maker) article.

Sphere is a open source set of a 2D game engine and a corresponding IDE, released under the GNU General Public License. It was originally developed by Chad Austin and is now maitained by Flik. The engine is currently running on Microsoft Windows and Linux, a Mac OS X port is being worked on. The editor is Windows only, but can be run under Linux using Wine.

Though Sphere was originally designed to create SNES style roleplaying games you can create virtually any game of any style or genre with it.

Sphere uses Javascript for scripting, providing classes for all relevant causes.
