Hi all,

As you may or may not know, RPG Maker uses Pixi JS, which has many community-made filters released under MIT license available for it. This plugin aims to add those filters for use in your game.

Currently, this plugin supports the following filters:

• Adjustment Filter
• Advanced Bloom Filter
• Ascii Filter
• Blur Filter
• CrossHatch Filter
• CRT Filter
• Dot Filter
• Emboss Filter
• Glitch Filter
• Godray Filter
• Grayscale Filter
• Kawase Blur Filter
• Noise Filter
• Old Film Filter
• Pixelate Filter

Adjustment Filter

This filter allows you to adjust things like gamma, contrast, saturation, brightness, alpha or color-channel shift. This could be used to provide color correction options such as brightness to your player in a custom options plugin. See image for an example:

Advanced Bloom Filter

This filter applies a Bloom Effect, with more options than the standard Bloom Filter (hence why it is advanced). This could be used as a way to make your desert areas appear more intense:

Ascii Filter

Turns your game into ascii art. You control the size of the letters. See below image for example:

Blur Filter (And Kawase Blur Filter)

These are two separate blur filters. They both do similar things in that they blur the screen. Kawase Blur is a bit harder to use but more optimized, while the normal blur filter is easier to use but may look slightly worse. You might use this to simulate the player getting drunk. See below image (standard blur):

CrossHatch Filter

Turns the game into a crosshatch art piece. See below image for example:

CRT Filter

Adds an animated CRT effect to the screen. Sorry no gif of this because the filesize is huge due to noise+crt lines. However, you could use this for any game that needs a CRT effect. Many customization options for the intensity of the effect are available. See image:

Dot Filter

This filter makes the screen look like output from an old printer by applying a dot screen effect. You can also have this be in color. See image:

Emboss Filter

Makes the game look like it is embossed. See image:

Glitch Filter

Slice the game screen randomly, with both vertical and horizontal pieces all glitched around. You can also animate this to separate the RGB of pixels to make it even more glitchy. See image:

Godray Filter

A nice animated godray filter, with tons of options to control the angle, intensity, and opacity of the effect. See gif:

Grayscale Filter

Turn your game black and white with the grayscale filter. See image:

Noise Filter

For those who just want a simple noise filter (animated or not) without any other effects like sepia or CRT lines. See gif example:

Old Film Filter

This can make your game look like an old western movie, or really any old film complete with sepia and film scratches. See gif:

Pixelate Filter

Make your game feel more pixelated with this filter. This might be useful for a retro part of the game or maybe even a scene transition. See image:

Filter Demo & License

More filters will be added over time. If you would like to see all filters part of pixi-filters and what they do, you can do so at the demo: https://filters.pixijs.download/main/demo/index.html

If using this plugin, please read and ensure your game also abides by the included MIT license at the bottom of the help documentation included with the plugin.

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:

Please be aware that you can access this as well as all of my other Alpha plugins for $5 on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CasperGamingRPGM

This is posted to Itch.io since some people only use Itch and are not aware my Patreon and all of my beta/alpha plugins exist, or want to have everything in one convenient location (itch.io), or do not want to do a monthly subscription.

Casper Gaming's Beta/Alpha plugins are treated as an "early access" and will eventually be free for everyone once they are fully released, though this process can take months/years. By purchasing in beta/alpha, you are able to provide early feedback/suggestions which are more likely to make it into the final fully released plugin.
